No one should vote tbh, people are like sheep, it's very easy to manipulate them.

Of course not. If an adult doesn't know how to vote correctly sometimes how you'd expect a kid to do it

No we already have enough uninformed voters we don't need anymore.

What we need to do is have EVERY voter in America take a political science class, provided by the government, before they are allowed to vote.
Then after passing the class, you get the right to vote. Kind of like getting a driver's license.

i'd say when they start to become adults. so girls should start to vote at age 10 and boys at age 12

NO. Absolutely no way.
How would a kid know about politics? It would literaly be the parents getting more chances to vote.

When adults have trouble voting the right candidate, what makes you think children are capable of?
Give them a few candies and they'll vote Frankie Grande the president of US.

Nope. Voting is grown adults' business only.
Kids are too young to know about the world.

Also in this election it would pretty much guarantee a win for Trump since more kids know who he is than Hillary.
