Kids are Smart About Politics

Kids and Politics Part One: 

For the most part kids stay out of politics.  Some of us can’t vote yet.  The older kids will vote and we are going to turn some heads this year.  Politicians are dumb like a fox.  They throw a few scraps at the kid and thing we don’t count because of what has gone on in the past.  Well, this is a new day.  This is the day of the Internet.  Kids are smarter than you think.   Kids are starting to see what happens when you let adults handle all of the business.   You get a big mess.  Plus, because of the “No Child Left Behind” movement and public opinion about the public schools you think that most of us have no education at all and that we are all dumb.

Well, some of us have figured things out on our own and we can ask great questions of our politicians who are the real people with no education.  First, of all they are not talking to kids.   Here are some of the intelligent questions that kids are asking and no politicians are talking.


Kids need answers from our politicians.

1.    Should kids have access to guns?
2.    If the Europeans figured out health care after World War II, why haven’t we figured out how to fix the health care problem in the United States?
3.    Why aren’t politicians talking to kids?
4.    Why are you pilling up the bills for kids to pay for down the road?
5.    If you drill now and drill dumb.  What will kids have left down the road?
6.    Do you really think that kids want to go to war?
7.    Why can’t you find someone who can talk to our enemies?
8.    We see that you found a woman to run for the VP office, is she the best that you can find?
9.    We don’t you let President Bush tell his side of the story?
10.    The mess in is so big and your track record is so bad you might have to get creative this time.  Why don’t you put everyone running in the White House, this includes all the Independents and just flip a coin to see who will be the president?

11.  What is your plan about afterschool programs for kids?
