Surely, this young person has been so scared by Hillary that he is doing what he can to make sure the wicked witch is never elected.

Kids have a clear unadulterated sense about an individuals character. Hillary would scare most children off. Undoubtedly, a living nightmare for adults and young ones alike.

I don't understand the question, "Are we being punked?"

And, BucFan, do you have issue with "blondes"? Oh, that's right, there is a negative bias against them, right? Well, this one boy will help prove that this sick stereotype is wrong. Hair color and/or skin color do not define a person. Come aboard the Trump train and forget about all those minor details that hold the country back and learn the importance of "united we stand".

As we know, the Republican Party has more respect for the life of children. Funny, this boy is the same age, 12, that the girl that was raped by the man that Hillary voluntarily defended against the rape charge. Hillary took that girl through the wringer and got the rapist a light sentence. I guess we all value children differently.
No one is degrading the kid. It's odd you read that into the post. You don't have more respect for children. That's BS. You certainly don't care once they get older. You could care less if they starve or go to war. Isn't a false equivalency fallacy fun? I guess we all value it differently.

It's odd a real candidate for president has a twelve year old running the GOTV campaign in a swing state. It's kind of hard to take that candidate seriously. I'm sure the kid is parroting his mother's views as most young people are running from republicans.

So cartoonish and absurd you can't help but laugh.

Trump's campaign is a satire come to life.

Exactly. I have nothing against someone starting young, I have volunteered for a few campaigns and came across a few kids involved in the campaign (high school kids not 12 year olds), but still it is a good thing to get involved young. However, to have a county field office basically being run by a 12 year old that just isn't very smart. Especially considering this isn't exactly some tiny little county. Jefferson County is a large suburban Denver County, that has been trending Democratic and one the GOP (regardless if it is Trump or was someone else) needs to gain ground back in.

Here's a quote from Trump's Florida campaign website asking for volunteers. Maybe they have a 12 year old working there too?

If all Trump's Colorado campaign can come up with is a 12-year old, he's in deep trouble, no matter how smart or not the kid is.

It's ludicrous to believe any 12-year old will be taken seriously by big grown-up voters. For pete's sake, he can't even drive yet! He's just a novelty and nothing more. And not a good novelty at that.

Nor can he sign contracts, like a rental contract for an office.

I suspect there is an adult somewhere doing the real management, the kid is just for entertainment value.
