The Cuban Missile Crisis was arguably the most dangerous conflict of the Cold War. This incident between the United States and Soviet Union almost lead to all out nuclear warfare. This was a result of the United States putting missiles in Turkey and the Soviet Union putting missiles in Cuba.

Over 13 days in October of 1962, President John F. Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev constantly deliberated over an agreement on how to end this without warfare. The US agreed not to invade Cuba again and the Soviet Union agreed to remove their missiles in Cuba. The US would later remove their missiles from Turkey as well.

How did the 26th amendment address the concerns of American youth during the Vietnam war

jeyben [28]

During the Vietnam War, many young men in the United States were being drafted into the military to fight in the war. The minimum age for men to join the armed forces was 18 years old, but the voting age was 21.

And so, a debate that was started after World War II, intensified during the Vietnam War as more young men were being forced to fight in a war they didn't agree with, yet denied the right to vote to make change in their country.

Today, the 26th Amendment prohibits the state and/or federal government to deny the right to vote in elections due to age, for anyone over 18. All citizens over 18 can vote in federal and state elections without the fear of being barred from the poll booths.
