   I could understand them with some effort. That is adorable! I love the "I wasn't even born yet!" quip, and the end where the girl's like "I'm sorry, that was low."

   If you click More Info on YouTube, it has all the words written down

   How cute, I wish America's youth was as involved in politics as these two.

   Look at 'em go! Weeee.

   They are cute but like their parents, so miss informed.

    meh script written by Adults, and "cutified" by having kids dictate it.

    How about mommy and daddy leave the kiddys out of their political message?

    "Don't bring up this Rev. Wright crap again."

    "Oh, you did not just go there!"
    

    That was great!

    Yes of course this was scripted by their parents. Why does that make it less funny? I don't think they are even expressing their parents' opinions, as these are all typical things said.

    I loved it, the music was just obnoxious though. I wanted to watch them argue, not listen to that!

    Loved it. Cheesy music and all.

    Didn't need to watch it.

    Children parroting their parents' political views?

    Snore.

    I thought it was pretty cute. The music was a good choice, just a tad too loud.

    I thought this was going to be cute, but it turned out to be obviously scripted. Four-year-olds' actual political opinions would be sort of awesome.

    Allow me to pile on: yes, this was pathetic, pandering, and an insult to the intelligence and sense of humor of anyone watching it. Just like the actual freaking election. But at least Gobama and Shrillary both have the presence of mind to not shove a couple pre-schoolers down our throats.

    My impression was that the parents' political message is actually commenting on the immaturity of political debate and reporting, not the the candidates, hence 4 year olds speaking.

    I liked it, mainly because it reminded me of the boy and girl having coffee in Airplane.

    Frighteningly, these children are more mature than some actual political office holders.

    I love the manic, desperate support for the Republican party that arises in comments on posts like these.

    Here's the thing. And it's not just this video, it's all video and even a lot of major movies. If you are going to have music, play it when people aren't talking or keep it so low in volume that it doesn't distort the words.

    Simple.

    I too thought it was going to be a real discussion! When my daughter was 4 (in 2000), she watched a lot of the election process with my son (who was 18 at the time and very into politics.) She wanted to stay up on election day to see who won but had to go to bed. Her reaction on hearing the news that Bush had won was to wail, "But Kerry won all three debates!"

    This little scripted exchange, in contrast, is mildly amusing at best -- the old putting adult words in little mouths schtick.
