Kids quiz White House hopefuls, but Romney's a no-show

WASHINGTON: President Barack Obama wooed Americans not yet old enough to vote Monday in a unique children's television news special that his rival Mitt Romney opted to avoid.

Obama fielded pre-recorded questions from under-18s on topics as varied as the economy, gun control, gay marriage and heartbreak during the half-hour program titled "Kids Pick the President: The Candidates."

"The good news is that we're starting to bounce back," said Obama in reply to a 14-year-old Texan's question about hard times and the middle class. "The most important thing for you guys is making sure you've got a great education."

does he secretly hate them? He ran from Nickelodeon and The View which says a lot about him. I am not even a fan of The View but how scary can it be?

There is something very disturbing and creepy about Romney. I really believe his robot behavior and chameleon views are a serious attempt to hide his true sociopath feelings. Kids have a way of tripping people up with their very sincere and open questions. That terrified Mitt.
