I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Just thirteen years. But don't worry, I already came up with your couple name to balance out the age: Kalsmith or Smithwejt.

I think we should notify John Walsh about your... weird way of thinking.

Oddly enough, I support allowing at least children who are old enough to read a ballot the right to vote.

I wouldn't go quite that far, but I definitely think there's no valid reason to prevent children above 10 or 11 (isn't that around when the capacity for abstract thinking develops?) from voting.

Other than or in addition to the fact that they have no idea how a county/state/nation should be run?

I mean, most adults don't possess that knowledge either, but at least they possess the capacity

12-year-olds also very clearly possess the capacity. Congrats, you've done a very good job debunking your own argument.

Being around the age in question and coming in contact with 10-12 year olds often, I can say that most folks my age shouldn't be able to vote.

I think that will probably be true until we're all long dead. Even then, I'm not sure we should be able to vote.
