This article is inaccurate. The 26th Amendment does not establish a "Right to Vote" that cannot be denied to persons. A better example of a constitutional right in the US would be the right to confront witnesses (See Confrontation Clause). I am going to change the article to reflect this. takethemud 04:54, 6 April 2006 (UTC)takethemud

[edit] Is this term US-specific?

This article is either horribly US-centric or should make it clear that it's talking exclusively about the United States. Moulder 07:01, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong Wrong Wrong

Rights are not granted by the constitution. Rights are protected. If a thing is granted it is a privledge, not a right.
