"First Lady Michelle Obama bragged on Monday that 10-year-old children were making phone calls for the Obama campaign. Michelle Obama said (http://dailycaller.com/2012/10/30/michelle-obama-ive-had-10-year-olds-who-are-on-a-phone-bank-for-barack/#ixzz2Aq56oZUP) in Iowa that many young voters have told her their "parents and grandparents were not going to vote for Barack in 2008 until I talked to them and I told them what this election means for my future."
After talking about the "power that young people can have,” she then said:
“It doesn’t matter how old you are. I’ve had 10-year-olds who are on a phone bank — 14-year-olds. I mean, I’m telling you, there is power because this is your future and you can tell people that they don’t have to wait until November the 6th to cast their ballots.” "

Sadly, the Democrats have had to give up on adult voters and are shooting for the ten-year olds. I personally have trouble imagining a voter who is planning to vote for someone or no one and then changed their mind and decided to vote for the socialist because their 10-year old son or granddaughter told them what it would mean to them. No way. Only a Democrat would do that and they were voting for Obama anyway.

And, Mrs. Obama is hedging. The 14-year old were probably mature enough to turn her down.

I'm not familiar with neg repping but I am familiar with your lying. I think you have Breitbart confused with ABC, CBS, MSNBC, NPR, and the NYT. In any case, that isn't the point of the thread. I don't think you've ever been able to respond on topic. Now, read the OP and give a response concerning 10-year olds manning phone banks. You do have an opinion, don't you? Perhaps you have to check in with someone to get your opinion. My god, is it a ten-year old?

Ten year olds don't need to be out or worry about things like this. I never talked to mine about who I was voting for at that age.

Actually, Roadmaster, in my family how we voted was a private matter. I could guess for some of them but we had enough family fights without bringing politics into the mix. Topics that were private when I was growing up were religion, politics, money, and what you did in the bedroom. I don't have a problem keeping those private and wish more people would.

My oldest is almost 30 and he has no idea I refused to vote the last election. Mine are old enough to make their own decisions.

That kind of senseless brainwashing for politics is sick.

10 year olds are developed enough to understand they are acting against their best interests by shilling for the dems. Of course, they are free to grow up to do so, as we see here on these Boards.....

In Colorado a child under ten cannot be charged with any crime. Over ten, they can be held liable but not to the standards of an adult. Most fundamentalist churches I've dealt with require that a child has reached the "age of reason" before the child can commit to the church. And, there is a very good reason we do not allow a 10 year old to have sex with adults. One of the big attractions for a child to an adult predator is the feeling he's acting like an adult.

The Nazis had the Hitler Youth and the communist in the USSR and it's subject states had the Young Pioneers. Indoctrinating young children is popular with leftists.

The saddest part of this is that I doubt you do realize why using children this way is wrong.

Sweatshops for Obama with your very own children to work them...!

Children doing this is just wrong. Someone succored them.
