And of course there are plenty of Americans who aren't eligible to vote.

  Yes, but I thought that interpreting "Americans" as including those not eligible to vote was too uncharitable in context and possibly in violation of the HN injunction to respond to the strongest possible interpretation of a comment. I was going for "the strongest possible, but no stronger".

    On the one hand, I think it's a relevant bit of perspective. On the other hand, I heartily approve of the application of charity. Maybe there was a line you could walk that does both, pointing it out as an aside rather than as direct criticism of what was presented? shrug Keep up the good commenting :)
