How did the twenty-sixth amendment address the concerns of american youth during the vietnam war?

a) it limited the president’s powers to commit troops to war, thus addressing some of the concerns of young anti-war protesters.

b) it gave the president unlimited power to commit troops to war, giving young people one person to whom they could address their concerns.

c) it brought young people, who had been disillusioned by the government’s handling of the war, into the political process.

d) it ended the draft, which was a major demand of the young people who had been subject to it.

The correct answer is C) It brought young people, who had been disillusioned by the government's handling of the war, into the political process.

Young people were brought into the political process by getting the right to vote at the age of 18 instead of 21. Before this amendment, 18 year old citizens could serve in the military but could not vote. Many 18 year old kids felt this was unfair, as they felt they should have a say in electing the individuals who would eventually send them off to war. This amendment was also influenced by the hundreds of protests on college campuses during the Vietnam War.
