WHY???
According to National Center for Children in Poverty "about 15 million children in USA – 21% of all children – live in families w/ incomes below the federal poverty threshold. 43% of children live in low-income families." This in the richest country in the world. Economy booming!

Children aren't old enough to vote so they represent no constituency. They're not old enough to work so they have no economic leverage w/ a govt. that's a handmaiden to donors. They can't compete with corporate clout. You & I need to stand for a child's right to pursue happiness.

Replying to @MAH1007
1) I recommend the work of The Children’s Defense Fund; 2) only support a candidate taking on the issue in more than a surface way.
