@thoughtsandthingsat73: In 1970, most Americans had to be 21 to vote, even though young men could be drafted into military service at 18. The debate over that difference helped lead to the 26th Amendment in 1971, giving 18-year-olds the right to vote nationwide. I was 17 in 1970, so this was a change that would soon affect my generation. Should the voting age and military service age always be the same? #ThoughtsAndThings a #1970 # 26thAmendment #AmericanHistory #VotingRights
