You already knew Green Party presidential hopeful Jill Stein is out of her gourd, but let’s face it: It never hurts to be reminded.
Today, she shared yet another of her winning ideas:
The voting age should be lowered from 18 to 16. 16 and 17 year olds should have the right to help determine our future. #GreenPartyForum

She’s a super-serial candidate, you guys.

Stop laughing! It’s a great idea! It really is. Absolutely fool-proof and not at all completely stupid.
GTFOH. https://t.co/NSREVbQykx

Hey Jill…would you let your 16 year old set your family financial policy?Determine investments?

So you've never really known any 16 and 17 yr olds, I take it.

as a teacher of many 16 and 17 year olds. This is moronic. They are not nearly informed enough to make these decisions.

As the parent of a very mature, politically aware 16 yo who shares most of my beliefs, this is a TERRIBLE idea https://t.co/fA1xMSziX3

Yes, people who have no concept of the real world should have a voice in government. What could possibly go wrong?
— Charles T. -Downtown (@crack_bass) September 19, 2016
Stop hatin’! You just don’t know young people like Jill does.

Why stop at 16? Does not an 8 year old have an investment in the future?
— KirbyRegated (@kirbyREGATED) September 19, 2016
Sure there's a point somewhere there. How about Nine? or Eight. Maybe Three??
— bassbar (@bassbar) September 19, 2016
Why stop there? 5 and 6 year olds should have the right to.#Agist

Let’s just go all the way and have baby suffrage. Or is that still too discriminatory?
Also, birds should be allowed to vote https://t.co/Xbl5SqpR6H

What about dolphins? Shouldn't they have the right to vote too? Tired of this unjust species supremacism. #GreenPartyForum

Sounds like Jill’s plan still needs a little tweaking.
