My 12-YO daughter likes Hillary

[FlyingSquirrel]

She's real big on seeing the first Female president. I'd like for her to see it too. Me, I'm still leaning heavily toward Obama. Just read through both of their websites, and they're both impressive. But I think Obama has the best shot in November and that's my main criterion at this point. Still, my daughter's opinion has some sway over me ;)

1. My 12 year old daughter likes Obama

[K Gardner]

3. Time for a little parental lie, tell her you'll vote for Hillary and then vote you choice. n/t

[Lucinda]

8. Good grief.

[FlyingSquirrel]

17. No, I don't lie to her. n/t

4. I think you are pretending to have a 12 year old daughter

It's too much of a coincidence that you also have a 12 year old daughter.
It seems to me that you hated the fact that FlyingSquirrel's 12 year old daughter likes Hillary.

[demo dutch]

13. I have a 11 yrs old daughter and she loves Hillary!

[Flabbergasted]

18. Who are you replying to?

[FlyingSquirrel]

23. huh?

Here's me



Here's me & my daughter



I wasn't trying to convince anyone of anything so I don't get the skepticism. Just stating what she said.

27. I believe this was supposed to be a reply to John Q Citizen's reply #1

but the n00b missed. And you failed to welcome them to DU :spank:

[FlyingSquirrel]

32. I realized that afterward but hey, any chance to post a pic of my kid... ;-)

And I was so shocked at seeing a :tinfoilhat: on such a new DUer that I completely forgot to welcome them!

[Summerza]

39. Yes, it was

I replied to the wrong post. It was a reply to John Q Citizen.

5. my middle school class wants to vote for Obama but they can't

[AlCzervik]

6. my 13 year old is a big Obama fan, i even took her to see him.

all her friends at school love Obama as well, needless to say she is somewhat displeased with my voting for Dennis but in 2012 she'll be able to vote for the first time ever so i told her she have her chance then.

7. The electability issue is mute. Hillary faced Repub smears, Obama has not yet.

The material I have seen on him thats true will be a gold mine to twist contort and smear him with.

I'm not going to list it because I do not want to get your thread flamed.

Electability is NOT as it appears! Repubs will JOYOUSLY make either one look un electable in the general, Obamites are fooling themselves...It is going to be ugly and my moneys on the Clintons to be able to withstand it...They already have....for what nearly 15 years or more?

Hillary 08!

[nonconformist]

12. mute = moot. Sorry, a peeve of mine.

Otherwise, I agree with your post. :)

[FlyingSquirrel]

28. cute = coot also (at least my wife thinks so)

[Straight Shooter]

9. If I were 12 years old, I would like Hillary.

:P

[demo dutch]

11. You're damn right! Who would have thought that the deciding vote came down to

the passing of the 19th amendment!

[nonconformist]

10. My 12 1/2 year old son and almost 10 year old son both like Hillary.

They did like Edwards, but out of Hillary and Obama, they like Hillary.

[demo dutch]

14. Of course! Who would have thought the 19th amendment would make the

difference in this historic moment!!!!

[smokey nj]

15. My cats are Fred Thompson supporters.

It's a good thing I take everything they say with a grain of salt.

[Flabbergasted]

20. What do they think of Reagan though? Isn't that the REAL question?

[FlyingSquirrel]

25. :-)

[Uben]

16. I have a snake that likes Bush!

Their related.

[FlyingSquirrel]

26. OMG there's DUzys coming left and right today!

Good one

[Sulawesi]

19. 15 year old son, 13 year old son, 10 year old daughter, 44 year old dad, 43 year old mom...all Obama

[Mass]

21. My 15 and 18 year old sons like Obama. The oldest will vote tomorrow - First vote!

[rodeodance]

22. ah--let her sway yah.

[FlyingSquirrel]

30. I told her I'd vote for Hillary in November

if she's the nominee.

[hfojvt]

24. When I was 12, I liked Nixon

at least up until the point where he resigned. Actually, it was mostly that I hated McGovern. I saw him on TV when I was 10 saying that the space program was a waste of money. You just do not say something like that to a ten year old boy.

[ErnestoG]

29. When I was 12, I liked Yvonne DeCarlo.

Had a crush on her, even.

[abburdlen]

31. my 7 & 3 year old daughters

we're singing along to "Yes We Can" today.


Though I think Bob the Builder help sway them.

[in_cog_ni_to]

33. Go with your daughter's opinion. PLUS...think of having a daughter grow up with a FEMALE President!

I think it sends a wonderful message to young women. They CAN DO anything they want. They can even be the President of the United States, if they so choose.:) Your daughter is wise for her years.:hug:

[FlyingSquirrel]

34. She agrees.....

[in_cog_ni_to]

35. LOL! I have a 14 year old son. I CAN relate!

She's SMART and pretty! :)

Go, Hillary!

[Thrill]

36. And my 6 yr old tries to kiss the TV everytime Obama is on it

[bigtree]

37. I listened to a woman whose son was inspired by Obama.

I'm inspired by the historic nature of both candidacies. Glad they're Democrats!

[thoughtcrime1984]

38. My 6 year old son likes Obama

He even watches him on TV with me sometimes, and seems to enjoy it!
