I think the phrasing "no right to vote" is confusing to the average layman, though. Seems like it would be better to lead with "Voting was considered a duty, a responsibility, not a right," which, as I understand it, is how the Founders viewed it.
But when you lead with "it wasn't a right at all," that just gets people's hackles up to where they don't want to listen.
