18 in 1971 would attack a constitutional amendment and part of the pitch was, if you were old enough to fight in the vietnam war, you were old enough to vote. at this point, it does not appear that kind of energy to lowered to 16. shannon: mike emanuel, thank you very much for the democrats pushed to lower the voting age to 16 comes on the heels of other progressive ideas like abolishing i.c.e., tearing down the boardwalk, attacking the supreme court, the list goes on. let s bring us a nice panel to talk brothers no idea. fox news political analyst, gianno caldwell. daily caller columnist stephanie stephanie hammel and d powell. i want to play something by congresswoman ayanna pressley who propose this idea and got a lot of votes in the house. here s what you said about having 16 euros board. they are waiting on the x attentional threats to our very sick society, climate change, so man. they clearly already have a stake in this democracy and they should also be able to cast a
