McCain or Obama????

I thought it would be interesting to see what my kids know about the Presidential Election. I know they know kind of who the candidates are from TV and the newspaper and this is what they said. Sierra was the most informative and Carson and Briana added their little snippets here and there.

John McCain - Sierra says: White Hair, Blue Eyes, Supports - something and something and something, Gots this girl for Vice President or whatever

Orack(this is what the kids call him) Obama - Sierra says: More people are agaisnt him than McCain and he has a man Vice President
Carson says: Black hair, His whole Body is Brown

I then asked who they thought they would vote for and here are the results:

Sierra - "I don't know I would flip a coin, but probably McCain"

Carson - "Obama, because most people aren't voting for him"

Briana - " I would vote for DADDY"

I wanted my kids to know that this was a historical election, don't know if they will really remember or not because Steve and I are not major political people but we do know it is important to be informed and to cast a vote and want our kids to know about it too.

I would vote for Steve. Maybe in four years he should consider a career change....
