=__**0:00-0:15**__=


 * Say hello and make small talk about things going on in the person's life. List four things you could talk about with your person.**

1 Hello, Mr. Baldwin!

2 I hear you have twelve siblings, you must have had to help around the house a lot.

3 I also know you went to Yale. Your parents must have been really proud of you.

4 You were really nice to pay for your siblings education when your father died.

=**__0:15-0:30__**=


 * State why you are calling and the Article and section, or the Amendment you want to discuss.

Why calling? Article and section or Amendment calling about.**

1 I have called you today to discuss the bill of rights.

2 The 26th amendment caught my eye.

3 You are a signer of the Constitution so I thought I would discuss this matter with you.


 * Explain what it is in everyday language**.

1 Amendment 26 is the Amendment that states no one under 18 can vote.

2 This also states that no one 18 or over can be turned down their right to vote.

3 Before this amendment was created, most states limited voting to white, male citizens who were over the age of 21.

=__**0:30-0:45**__=

Give an example of how we see that Article or Amendment in action today and if it is still working to benefit us?

1 I think this amendment is good and bad at the same time.

2 This amendment is good because it allows women and african american people to vote.

3 The bad side of this is is that it keeps childen from voting.

4 Just because children are young, doesn't mean they can't make a difference.

5 This amendment is put into action when we vote for president, mayor, town council, the list goes on and on.

6 If this Amendment were to be changed, more people would have a choice of who runs their country.

7 I think the age limit on this Amendment should be lowered to an extent.

=__**0:45-1:00**__=

1 Thank you for letting me discuss this with you.

2 It was great to talk to you Mr. Baldwin.

3 Have a wonderful day!
