I don't think our great grandparents, or grandparents or fathers went to war with the thought of defending the concept of demcracy or the right to vote on their minds. Some went for the adventure, others went to fight for a cause based around general freedoms, still others probably went to fight what they perceived as a great evil and a threat to their country or their families.
People went off to fight Hitler, but I don't think that they really went to fight for truth justice and the democratic way of life. They went because they saw that Hitler was an evil conquest monkey with plans to take over the world.
But for the right to vote or not to vote, nah, thats to specific.
