11 Year Old Ron Paul Supporter Says CNN is "Full of Crap"

Very smart kid. I didn't watch the whole thing but with Ron Paul parents you'll naturally raise a very bright kid without trying. They absorb everything being discussed in the household like politics. Hard to say conclusively though.
 
LOL you have to watch it just to see her do the scare quotes with her fingers while saying "mainstream media"... couldn't be cuter without kittens in there somewhere
 
How about we stop assuming that every time a young person says something intelligent, they were "put up to it." Stop infantilizing kids. Why should they even try to act mature if every time they do it, cynical grown-ups put them down for it? Heaven forebid they don't act like morons all the time.
 
Some kids *want* to act like adults.

This.

I wrote and published my own daily newspaper at the age of 10 and 11.

I was creating websites and writing articles online when I was 13.

too scripted and I have a pet peeve about kids talking like grown ups.

This. I got about 5 seconds into the video, before the overacting schtick completely annoyed me....

Also, I was much more pleased to see even older military at the rally today, than to get an endorsement and reasoning from an 11 year old. ;)
 
I think 11 isn't quite old enough to really understand politics. If the kid was talking about how much she loved Obama, everyone here would be pissed at how she's just spouting off what her family believes, but as long as it's indoctrination for Ron Paul it's fine.

I'm not saying she can't think for herself, but I am saying that. She's 11 years old. She shouldn't even be thinking about politics, she should be enjoying her childhood.
