Out of the Mouth of Babes

As part of my nephew's school's Christmas chorale performace, a video collage was put together that was quite entertaining. The kids were shown photographs of 3 presidents: George Washington, George W. Bush and Barak Obama and were asked to identify each picture. One 6 year old is to be commeneded - he was the only student to get them all right. The other answers, although incorrect, were priceless. When George Washington's photo was shown, one child authoritatively stated he was John McCain and many classmates followed suite. One little girl however, was sure the picture was of Hilary Clinton! (Lots of laughter from the audience) And then proceeded to say, that Hilary Clinton had lost and "was out of the game" which caused the audience to laugh even harder. Well, Hilary's definately not out of the game ...and it sure was interesting to hear the perspective of 5 and 6 years olds and who they voted for...another said Obama because he is cool, another said he voted for McCain because he was old. Out of the mouth of babes.....
