The 24th amendment eliminated poll taxes and other fees people might receive for voting. People barely vote as it is, so having a poll tax would just make things worse.
Those English really didn't like a poll tax either, good thing this amendment was ratified way back in 1964.
Well they were strongly against a poll tax. Don't pay a poll tax!

D.C. gets to vote now!
The 23rd amendment allows the people of D.C. to vote for electors for President and Vice President. Ah poor D.C. had to wait quite some time before they were able to vote.
Oh so that's what D.C. was missing out on all those years? I bet they're sure glad they get to vote now!
I wonder if D.C. decided to use their power to vote and voted for Bush?

You only get 8 years so make em count!
The 22nd amendment set term limits for the President. I like this amendment because it ensures that Bush will never run for president again because he's already had his two god awful terms as president. I dislike this amendment because I wish Bill Clinton could run for president again.
Ah 10 more reasons why Bush is an idiot.
Ah I can't believe so many people voted for that idiot, god I wish I was 18 when he was running for President, I would've voted for Gore and Kerry!

Alcoholics rejoice you have your liquor back!
The 21st amendment repealed the 18th amendment and ended prohibition. Alcoholics across the nation rejoiced because they were able to get drunk legally again.
I bet it was a cold winter for those barrel busters because all that hard work they put into destroying barrels of liquor throughout the years was all for naught.
Were people really that happy to make alcohol again back in those days or was that just more government propaganda to get people to support the end of prohibition?

Please no more Bush!
The Twentieth Amendment to the United States Constitution establishes the beginning and ending of the terms of the elected federal offices. It also deals with scenarios in which there is no President-elect. This amendment helped cut down on time between election days and the beginning of a person's term.
I say good riddance to Bush and his terrible presidency. Hello Obama and hopefully another four years.
Ah those boos were like music to my ears, na na na na hey hey hey good bye Bush!

The womenfolk want to vote too!
The Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits each state and the federal government from denying any citizen the right to vote based on that citizen's sex. This amendment protects women and more recently, transexuals from being denied the right to vote.
This video is sad and funny at the same time. Suffragist leaders would cry and hang their head's in shame today given the lack of knowledge young women these days have about the suffrage movement.
Those girls in the first video should watch this video and hopefully they might learn something.

No more liquid courage
The 18th amendment in our constitution which was later repealed by the 21st, established prohibition or the illegalization of alcohol. Ah its such a shame this amendment was repealed, because I don't drink and alcohol is a dangerous and powerful legal drug.
Oh yes the good ole days of drunken debauchery and stupidity came back, yay!
I agree with Mr. Mackey, drugs are bad umkay? Alcohol is a drug so its bad too umkay?
