Scholastic News: Election 2004 Some people gripe that today's youth are ignorant about the political process and are cynical about voting. Well, don't accuse these youngsters of being uninformed of uninvolved. These preteen pundits are the real deal, hired by Scholastic News to hit the 2004 campaign trail and report to their contemporaries how the battle for the White House is shaking out. So far, they've covered key topics such as how to run for president and the Democratic primaries. Soon they'll tackle the raucous convention floors and the countdown to Nov. 2. Through it all, these kids show a knack for sound reporting (is this kid really 10?) and a flair for writing. You and your kids will be privy to the candidates' thoughts and insiders' views, and delighted by stories presented from the exuberant angle of young analysts. (in Politics > U.S. Elections)
