Jennifer C. Braceras purports to make the case against lowering the voting age to 16; her argument makes the opposite case. She claims that 16-year-olds are “monosyllabic,” and that they “have little awareness of politics, civics, or American history.” This describes the current president—elected to the office by voters who were all over 18.
Let 16- and 17-year-olds vote. They can’t do any worse.
