but about like voting, i don't understand what expirience has to do with it,...it is about maturity, but does that mean we don't have a right for an opinion. i mean i think they should no the facts about it all before they vote, but after 6th grade, i learned everyhting about politics.

Why do people not allow children or anyone under the age of 18 vote? The president of the United States is such a big deal! If tons of kids just suddenly decided they wanted to vote for "whatever their best friend said" or decided to just pick randomly that may seriously, politically mess up the voting which could mess up our country. Letting a 6 year old vote would be like, "Hey son, check that name and put it in the box. Good." It'd be way too complicated and there definitely would be controversy and if it wasn't against the law for people under 18 to vote, there would be nothing you could do about unfair voting.
You really can't tell maturity by age (or vice versa), but it's better to be on the safe side and let people who are in businesses and that know more about industries, politics, that have already gone through school, college etc from the "real world" do the voting. It's not a big deal.
