Last week we went to dinner with friends who have twins in kindergarten. During our conversation they told us that their children had a mock election a while back. They said that their 5 year old daughter said she voted for Hillary because "she wants to help people and take care of people." They said that their 5 year old son voted for Edwards because he heard his name on a phone call prior to the primary.
It made me think a little about the adults that are voting for Hillary. There are actually adults that will vote for Hillary for the precise reason that this child voted for her... because "she will take care of people." Which is frightening, not only because these people vote, but because there are adults that believe that the role of a president is to take care of his/her people. Maybe in a communist country this is tried and failed but in a free republic it is scary.
