Should kids vote? No. I mean come on now, how many 15 year olds actually care or watch anything political.....mabye a handfull. Alot of young people support canidates blindly because they see ONE thing they've done that would benifit them. Or, mommy and daddy tell them to. So, they just believe whatever their told. Its annoying that Nick has a rock song dedicated to democracy and want to cram all sorts of goverment from all over into 30 seconds. At least let kids take American and World history. I wouldnt want my ideas about goverment coming off a kids network. Its good to understand why our country is ran like this, but kids need to understand how the goverment effects even them and people all over. Not just say "bush (or kerry) is a bad person because all he does is LIE!!!!" They need to understand why they think that, not just babble on about something they dont understand. Even some 18 and up cant do that. They can lower the age to 8 and it wouldnt do much. Young people care about getting laid and drinking on the weekends.....
