Revision as of 21:34, May 13, 2011
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
This amendment was ratified in 1920, as advocates ("suffragettes") cited women's support of World War I to persuade President Woodrow Wilson to change his position from opposing this amendment to supporting it. Women could already vote in many areas of the country, but this amendment guaranteed the right, in violation of the principle of states' rights and in support of individual civil rights, a phenomenon further seen in civil rights legislation after the civil rights movement.
Opposition to this amendment, especially in the South, was very strong. Long after the Civil War, many southerners believed feminism had emerged as an offshoot of abolitionism. They also strongly believed that the suffragists challenged a precept deeply rooted in religion, law, and custom: the belief that women should be subordinate to men.[1]
The "Women's Suffrage Movement" has been largely perpetrated and abused by the atheist feminist agenda. Women are biologically inclined to seek out those to nurture and care for, often leading to left-wing voting tendencies and the acceptance of heavily socialist agendas. Studies show that states with a higher ratio of female voters is linked to higher governmental spending in those areas.
Coincidentally, Marxism famously picked up speed around 1920, the year that the 19th Amendment was finally ratified.
Fox News pundit Ann Coulter agrees, stating "If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat president. It’s kind of a pipe dream, it’s a personal fantasy of mine, but I don’t think it’s going to happen. And it is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women."
