Permalink Kerry wins prophetic kids poll

The Nickelodeon cable channel, better known for programs "SpongeBob Squarepants" and "Jimmy Neutron," conducted "Kids Vote," an online survey of almost 400,000 children Tuesday. Since its inception in 1988, it has never been wrong in choosing the next president.

"An unusual opinion poll that has correctly predicted the winner of the last four presidential elections has given Democratic challenger Kerry 57 percent against 43 percent for Bush, according to results released Wednesday...

...The 'Kids' Vote' seems to work as a good barometer of the actual presidential vote because, developmentally, kids between the ages of two and 11 share the same opinions and outlooks as their parents," said Cyma Zarghami, president of Nickelodeon Television."

If only kids had the vote. Come to think of it, why don't they? Age discrimination? On our war protests, kids outnumbered the adults. Some kids came without their parents. Some openly defied their parents by coming along and giving a voice to peace. It gives hope for the future.
