Children Talking Politics Share Some Surprising Opinions

The political discussion at Cold Spring Elementary School in Maryland began with the visit from author Cynthia Levinson.

She shared one of her books with the students,Hillary Rodham Clinton: Do All the Good You Can.

“I wanted to create sort of a hologram of Hillary right in front of kids,so kids could feel they have a dialogue about issues in American politics.”

And the dialogue was enlightening.

“It was super Tuesday, what made it super?”

Some students said it would be “cool to have a girl president” and that Clinton was “pretty nice.”

But others were skeptical.

“I’m more on Bernie Sanders’ side because Hillary Clinton is less direct than Bernie Sanders.”

Opinion polls indicate some voters are worried that if the former first lady wins,it will be like a third term for the Obama administration.Young Kyle agrees.

“Now I like Hillary Clinton’s ideas, and hmm…but the only thing I have against her is that, I don’t… she’s already been a resident of the White House before,and I don’t think she should be a resident again.”

The young students also expressed opinions about the Republican presidential candidates,especially Donald Trump.

Nine-year-old Katherine wrote a letter pleading with him to drop out of the race,because he lies, he’s a hypocrite, he’s a megalomaniac and he’s delusional,which really — those four qualities aren’t good for a president.

These students are well on their way to becoming informed, engaged voters,even if they won’t be able to cast a ballot until 2024.
