ANNOYING

Could I just say something that REALLY annoys me? Why is it that lately I've been seeing a ton of little kids (I'm talking mainly about the 12 and under crowd) talking about the election? This may just be my opinion, but I think that 10 years old is MUCH TO YOUNG to know anything about politics. Thank God those kids can't vote, because they wouldn't know who or what they would be voting for. It's not like those kids actually know anything about political issues...abortion? Yeah right, they shouldn't even know what sex is yet. The stances these kids take on issues are undoubtedly the same ones of their parents. One of my friends told me today that her 8 year old brother kept asking his parents to put an Obama sticker on their car. They're voting for Obama, but they just don't want to put a sticker on their car for him (I don't know why, it could be because they just don't want stickers on their car. It doesn't matter.), but seriously. This kid is 8. He knows very little to none about politics. He just likes Obama because his parents do. I'm like, please stop trying to get involved. I mean, I'm all for standing up in what you believe in, but not when you know NOTHING about that belief. STOP TRYING TO TALK ABOUT POLITICS. YOU ARE IN MIDDLE SCHOOL.
