I see it more of a failure of men.

We let them have their way and failed to be the head of the household. Look at the spoiled generations that resulted.


Well, it may have been 1971, but I was in high school civics class at the time they lowered to voting age. Had a fairly heated arguement with the civics teacher who insisted that it was our duty to get out and vote. I pointed around the room and said there wasn't a person in this class that knows or cares enough about politics to make an intelligent vote on who should be running things. I thought I was right then, but I know it for sure now.

Plenty of women are smarter than a lot of men and are more than capable of heading a household.

Do you not know anyone who was raised by a single mother? 2 kids I grew up with lost their dads, moms worked full time and raised the kids. Wasn't easy for them I'm sure but they did what they had to and made it work.

I don't see the end result being much different than the popular vote. If the population of the state is liberal enough to elect a liberal legislature, that legislature would would in turn elect liberal senators.

Generally true BUT the majority of state legislatures are Republican controlled.

My own Georgia for example wouldn't have Warlock and Asshat as senators.

one of the biggest reasons we have problems is all the kids raised by just women....it is a fact.

But, do not worry because voting really no longer matters.

Must be at least 35 years old
Be a natural-born citizen of the U.S.
Must have lived in the U.S. for at least 14 years

If these are the requirements to BE the President, Maybe the same should be required to VOTE for the President as well.

The devouring mother is a big reason why this country is falling fast. Need to get the family unit back in order and start condemning promiscuity and childbirth before marriage again.

Now, anything goes. I can't say I'm for abolishing the 19th, but generational welfare due to the breakdown of the family unit and allowing those individuals to vote is not helping. Young men who get someone pregnant out of wedlock should be shamed as well. IMO, this is the heart of all our problems in this country, their is no longer any accountability for ones actions. It will be painful, but the welfare must end and their must be some sort of ramifications for young men throwing out babies left and right with no accountability.

I lean more towards Heinlein's alternative, you most have served in the military or similar to vote.

Wouldn't help much in Maine but would likely help in states where the majority of the state is conservative but the big cities population out votes them, or maybe I should say out cheats them, in the general election.

Another benefit of repealing the 17th, is that the folks doing the choosing of senators would live among us, not in Fort D.C.
How does that saying go? "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer".

I bet the ladies on this site have a different opinion
