IN HONOR OF TODAY BEING PROHIBITION REPEAL DAY: Can the GOP Attract Young Voters? Try Beer. “If the Republicans want to attract young voters, then lead the charge to repeal the National Minimum Age Drinking Age Act that Democrats in Congress passed in 1984.” Yep. A stupid law, passed for stupid reasons, that’s had bad effects. Though Liddy Dole deserves a good share of the blame, too. (Bumped).
