. . .Out of the mouth of babes. . .

  • Psalm 8: 1-2 (King James Version) -

Informed Choice celebrates children speaking simply and more wisely than elders by recording their observations about one the most serious choices facing contemporary America - the Presidential Race.

In their wisdom and (unintentional) humor, stripped of partisanship and informed choice, the children lampoon the cult of popularity based solely on physical attributes. Their purity is a mirror reflecting the American voter's obsessions, boredom, judgments of race and age.

With only pictures of candidates McCain and Obama as their guide, the Informed Choice interviewees certainly surprise and amuse even the most strident viewer / voter, regardless of political affiliation.
