Christie just said that he's going to kick President Obama out of the White House. Dude, his term is up.

I gave up on this debate, but kudos to Kasich for not taking the bait and railing against democratic socialism.

I often wonder what elections would be like if the voting age was 25-45.

Either way I'm pretty much committed to the idea that old people shouldn't vote.

Yet whenever I go to vote, even in my 40's, I'm the youngest person there by 20 years.

The question I'd pose is: if people over 50 couldn't/didn't vote, how would political rhetoric change and how would that impact the interest in voting among younger people?

Old people vote so we cater to old people so old people vote so we cater to old people so the end is never the end is never the end is never the end

Compulsory voting and your vote only counts for half a vote after 60 years old.
