An 11 year-old's take on the Democratic candidates

With everyone bashing everyone else's candidates while tensely awaiting tomorrow's caucus, I thought it would be fun to share my 11 year-old's take on the election.  This comes from a report she did for her current events class.

•  Nice job, Cassandra.

  Dad should be proud!

•  Hahaha, I love the Kucinich story!

  That's a very informed child you have there! If only more kids were raised to be civically minded, things could not have gotten so far as they have...

  •  Thanks

    I was about to edit the tags based on your suggestion, but see that someone already added those tags in.

    •  Just whom do you suppose that someone was?

      Hint:  Check "previous tag versions."

    •  :)

      I did put "tags added" in the comment subject line so you would know I added them - sorry for any confusion.  Just wanted to make sure your diary could be found later by those following races by the tags.

•  Your daughter is very intelligent

  and funny to boot! I have to say though, I haven't experienced a Dennis Kucinich hallucination yet after too much caffeine.

•  That was great = Rec'd this diary

  The stories were hilarious.

  John can't enjoy a meal.

  Poor Hillary, nightmares and all.

  Obama is just confused.

  Dennis well I'm not sure. I must have had to much coffee.

  Thanks tell kid they done good.

•  Your daughter has a future

  as a management consultant -- that looks like the beginnings of some great powerpoint skills!

  •  Nooooo!!!

    Dream bigger.  I wouldn't wish management consultancy on my worst enemy (even with some of my friends in the field).
