That would be a great way to have the rich landowners making the decisions for themselves.

As a candidate let me say that I would love it if the youth were more involved. It just doesn't make sense for me to spend a lot of time talking to young voters though when we know that only a small percentage actually bother to vote. Sad truth, but as a candidate your time and resources are limited. You have to apportion these to areas that you think will get you elected!
