nope most kids have no idea what they are voting for. 18 is the age you are legally an adult so you should make your decision then.

Kids should vote as long as they are 12+

There is no such thing as peace and there never will be. Peace is a delusion believed by the weak. Gandhi said : "An eye of an eye would leave the whole world blind". So be it because only a blind world can experience the peace that it deserves. But there in lay the sick irony. Who will be able to see this peace? The human species is at war. The enemy walks among us nearly invisible. Only those with true discernment can see them. But only one with discernment and vision can show them to others

The majority of american children are stupid. They will only vote the way their parents vote. I don't think kids should vote.

I think the voting age is good where it is. As we grow, we form opinions, whether it's on politics, what foods we like, what kind of music we like, or whatever. I don't think we have all of the important opinions sort of finalized until we are older.  Although people will always change thir opinions based on things they have seen or heard, they are mature enough to be taken seriously around this age. And having it be at 18, it gives you something to look forward to, and makes you feel like a real adult, getting to make a difference. Besides, if you didn't get to vote at 18, people would be looking forward to smoking at 18, which isn't too great.

No way, kids should not be able to vote. Letting kids to vote is pure stupidity. Kids will vote for who is "cooler".

Having two presidents is impossible. Even if it is a tie in the citizen votes, the electoral votes are still there.  If there is a tie in the electoral votes, the citizen votes are still there.

Most kids would probably wreck it. They aren't mature enough. Many of them wouldn't even have their own opinions, they would just vote for who their parents told them to.
Excatly! They would listen to whatever their parents told them. 18 is a good age to vote. There are a few kids younger than that that should be able to vote, but not enough to have the age lowered. Some 18-year olds aren't mature enough to vote, but there are a lot more mature ones that make smart votes. Keep it at 18!

I probably won't be on here too much being in college and all. I will try to pop on every once in a while though to share my thoughts.
