I am very upset about this. To take away the children's choices by DU's, and FR's for that matter, is just downright wrong. What values are we teaching our children?

I have been using this election as a great method of letting my children experience politics. Then, of course, the dreadful picture of Bush that popped up and the terrible description to boot. I had to explain the entire description to my daughters, and explain how grown-ups are taking over a childrens' election. I could see they were upset. All 3 said, "but this is for us, grown ups get to vote in November".

I think Nick should have stuck with Cartoon Networks election plans. They are running elections with cartoon characters. Maybe that would have kept the adults out.

I saw the show early am on Nick. They painted both in a pretty fair picture...then they had kids'that are supporting each, voicing their opinions. The "Kids' for Bush" spoke very factual...they were very well informed. When the kids for sKerry talked...it was almost all DNC talking points. Plain ol' bad mouthing Bush. That was really pathetic.
