Okay, isn't this brainwashing? As a parent this infuriates me. I mean really, not only is this a type of child labor but it is manipulative since children are not capable of the abstract thinking abilities of adults. If this were encouraging teens (14-18) to get involved fine, but this aims for under 12.

I really dislike recruiting kids into politics in this manner. If the kids are interested, let them ask, if they want to play a role, then let the parents decide. But to ACTIVELY try to recruit kids...sounds a little icky.

The mass hysteria surrounding Obama is really getting pretty scary.

Hitler Youth anyone?

Left wing movements always try to go after the “kids” and it’s always about the “youth” and when they’re policies get implemented you get a generation of brain washed morons. It’s happening in Africa. It happened with Pol Pot. It happened with Hitler. They always go for the kids. And look what happens. Children cannot handle the sensitive environment of politics and to recruit them is cowardly, manipulative and dangerous.

Remember the little girl who spoke at the Democrat convention as the leader of “Kids for Kerry” last time? As she spoke, she scolded Cheney for saying a bad word, and the crowd loved it!

I can’t wait to hear the “Kids for Obama” rep. speak at the convention.

Some Democrats / liberals / radicals tend to act like children. So it makes sense to them that children have a prominent place in their campaigns.

I don’t know how many times I’ve had children come home from school telling me to vote for yet another tax increase in order to fund the school system otherwise Mr. or Mrs. so-and-so will loooooooose their job, our schools will lose their accreditation and they’ll never ever get into college. It’s a life or death crisis every time. Yawn.

Next they’ll be suggesting to childs that it’s their duty to report their parents to the authorities for not recycling or using incandescent bulbs or keeping it too warm in winter or too cold in summer. The list can go on and on......

From the web site;

“Do you feel like you want to get involved in the political process but you don’t know how? Do you feel like there’s something important coming up in the Presidential elections? Get involved in KIDS FOR OBAMA! Studies have shown that kids can affect their parents and their siblings’ opinions and even change the opinions of older family members . . . including those of voting age. Are you still with me? Great, Let’s get started!”

Shameless. Just shameless.
