"A Good Day" is episode 127 of The West Wing that aired first in march 2005. A group of middle school children who are part of the Future Leaders for Democracy visit the White House and seek out Toby to discuss abolishing the voting age. One of the young men is outspoken, articulate and not willing to accept pat answers, so an impressed Toby has the group stay longer than expected at the White House and attend a press conference where the President discusses youth rights.

The episode set off a vigarous discussion about voting rights in classrooms all around.
