Hang on a minute... I'm confused

Everything I've seen or heard about Iran in the last couple of years... had led me to believe that surly, hormone soaked teenage boys were already "calling the shots."
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says his government is planning to reduce the minimum voting age in the country to 15 years.

“When the voting age was 15, we saw how our young people acted with fervor and helped choose the right way for the independence and greatness of Iran," he said, addressing youths on the first day of the school year.
What a stroke of genius.

No wonder he's coming to the United Nations.
