What two arguments does Susan B. Anthony use to argue that women are entitled to vote? She states that the founding documents confer rights on all people, including women, and therefore women are entitled to vote. She states that women who are born in the United States are automatically considered citizens and therefore have the right to vote. She states that women already have rights, and they need the right to vote in order to protect these rights. She states that if the Constitution can guarantee certain rights to racial and ethnic minorities, then it must give women of all races the right to vote. She states that women have evolved since the time the Constitution was written, so they have earned more responsibility in governing the country.
