Youth Vote

I think that what the children are picking is information from their parents. When they see the news they might sorta understand it but it is the conversation after the news segment that will shape what the child thinks. I do not think that children have any special talent at picking a presidential candidate, they are so young and dont even know most of what is going on in the election. It can't hurt to let them vote and feel like they are in power, and have a voice, and it will help for when it really comes time to vote. maybe having these younger kids vote will make teens want to vote more when the time comes. Or atleast these children will grow up and want to vote when they are eighteen.
