No age limit on voting...children should have the right to study politics of every stripe as soon as they first develop an interest and subsequently register to vote. This will mean that different people will start voting at different ages. Voting should be a right, and rights do not have qualifications like age, etc. At least, this is how youth liberationists see it.
It's true that some people will say something like, "If Gumby was running for president, I bet kids would vote for him" (implying that kids are really stupid) but I think that kids are much more willing to vote for change than even younger adults and it's absolutely vital to the future that we grant them the right to vote.
