Just a little break from the intensity of the campaign to share this little story with folks ...
My six-year-old nephew Nate asked my sister the other day, "Why can't kids vote?" She did her best to explain why voting was for adults. She told me Nate seemed disappointed. The reason?
"I want to vote for Barack Obama," he explained. (That kid's always been brilliant.)
Then he confided in my sister in hushed tones not to tell our mother, who is wholehearteldy pro-Obama, that his other grandmother is for McCain. With Nate campaigning for Barack though, I'm sure he can change his grandma's mind by November.
