This is a great video. An elementary school in Palm Beach, Florida has their own TV news channel, The KEC News Report. They recruit their own grade school reporters, camera people, etc. They really do report the news. The news this day was the speech by Joe Biden at a campaign event.
Notice the competence of [...]

In his recent column in the NY Times, Thomas Friedman asked these very valid question about Sarah Palin and the conservative commentators boasting of her appeal:
How in the world can conservative commentators write with a straight face that this woman should be vice president of the United States? Do these people understand what serious trouble [...]

She may be ready to step in as president if need be, but the McCain camp says Sarah Palin isn’t ready for prime time or interviews with the media:
A senior McCain campaign official advises that, despite the gaggle of requests and pressure from the media, Gov. Sarah Palin won’t submit to a formal interview anytime [...]

John McCain’s VP pick Sarah Palin seems to be the gift that keeps on giving. There’s a lot we still do know about her and a lot that we do now know. Frankly, I think Palin is steeped in hypocrisy and I know I am not alone in that thinking. As the mother of 19 [...]

John Kerry was on This Week with George Stephanopoulos today talking about McCain picking Sarah Palin as his VP. Kerry responded to a question from Stephanopoulos about whether he thought the Palin pick would help McCain garner support from women who supported Clinton.

Barack Obama is using mass text technology to make his VP announcement to his supporters. Using this technology in this manner for the first time, the people signed up to receive the text, before the actual announcement, are planned to have a better sense of that personal involvement and exclusivity. Of course that ‘exclusivity’ will [...]
