Can you do it like a 7th grader did it.

Answer 1

Susan B. Anthony believed that all American citizens should have the right to vote because she thought it was important for everyone to have equality of rights. She wanted women to have the same opportunities and representation in government as men. Anthony believed that allowing all citizens to vote would lead to a more just and fair society. I agree with Anthony because I think it is only fair that everyone has a voice in choosing their leaders and making decisions that affect their lives.
