I agree. Allowing ex-Iraqi citizens and the children of ex-Iraqi citizens the right to vote is ridiculous. I saw a girl on the news that had just voted...she sounded like a typical 18 year old bimbo from the suburbs in the states. "Like, this is so cool being able to vote, like there are so many choices”.
