Only men should be allowed to vote in matters concerning war? And what about those brave people who WEREN'T drafted? What about the women who chose to serve in the military? I guess they don't deserve to choose who leads them into battle or peace. You also have to realize that there are too many stupid and smart people in both genders to choose sides.

My wife and I are both up on current events. That's amale AND a female! I don't want to alarm you, but I'd guess that more of the women I knw are up on politics than guys I know. Perhapse our groups cancel eath other out, in which case neither men or women should vote. Back to reality. Women are fighting for and serving the US right now. Both genders equally deserve to vote for everything.

That's the way the system works. Actually I'd guess less than 2% of the population knows enough to vote properly about anything. Why does that matter? Who are you and I to say who can and can't vote?

Anne certianally is entertaining in her own way. It is important to remember that you should listen to Anne the same way you listen to Poke'Mon. They are there for no value beyond entertainment. That are not here to inform you.
