Why 5 and 7 Year Olds Can't Vote



My kids, Jake and Kate, went to vote with their father yesterday. He told them about the various candidates. Katie (5) grew very excited and said she was voting for the movie star. Jacob agreed when he heard that he starred in action movies. Katie later told me (I'm not making this up)--"Mom, that's why they do not allow five year olds and seven year olds to vote."

Apparently, its not only children who think movie stars should be governor.
