First of all, let's give credit to former Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) for attempting a similar amendment before he had to step down.
Next, in many legal cases, attorneys have argued that the right to vote is inherent, if not in actual words, in the Constitution.
Third, the right to vote, such as it is, is the subject of more amendments than any other. That's saying something.
Fourth, the absence of this explicit right in the Constitution was invoked more than once by the conservatives in Bush v Gore. What a disgrace!
Fifth, these wise congressmen have my full support in their efforts to amend the Constitution.
