Kids for Kerry


I just asked Lily who she wanted to be president, and she said John Kerry. Of course, if you were 5 years old and someone gave you a choice between 2 strangers, one of whom shared a name with your mother, whom would you choose? My daughter Lily, however, is not the only child who would vote for Kerry. The majority of the nearly 400,000 children surveyed by the Nickelodeon children's network chose Kerry too, and they have correctly predicted the last four elections. ( And I don't think that the majority of these children have a parent named Kerry)
