Nancy Pearcey's discussion of the "household vote" vs. "individual vote" confused me, so I pulled all the pieces together to make sure my historical assessment was correct......
Beth, thanks for your historical scholarship. There's much in this post that I didn't know. such as Wolbrecht and Corder's point that the framers of the Constitution "viewed voting and voting rights to be relatively minor and unimportant aspects of the political system they had created."
Your patience in replying to Nancy Pearcey is remarkable. I have so many feelings around women's right to vote--I'd be screaming.
