Note the hair color in the presentation.

Despite the DNC's repeated attempts to portray their candidates as 'Young', full of vigor (endless Kerry jerkoff pix with sport equipment), and the second coming of Camelot (Edwards endlessly posing with his 22yr-old daughter and his two toddlers - his wife nowhere in the frame), people are aware that John F'in Kerry is 61. Edwards is 51.
W is 58.
And the Propagandists at Nickelodeon deliberately stroke Lurch's pic to look 30yrs younger.


EDIT - here's a screencap

Wow, that's pretty blatantly biased...

Doesn't surprise me though...

A lot of kids do think they know everything.

It's not for the kids.  The liberals know their "base" will saturate the site with Kerry votes.  Then they can turn around and say, "See, our children want us, they NEED us, to vote for Kerry."  The classic "Do it for the children".

How long before we see a "HIT THIS POLL!!!" thread pointing to this site in the GD?

My Letter:


You should be ASHAMED of yourselves!

Your Presidential Poll has hand drawn pictures of the two candidates - with President Bush having all grey hair and looking 80 years old.  But John Kerry you have with all black hair, looking 30 years old.

Blatant Bias.

Duh.  Nickelodeon, owned by the same socialists that own MTV, CBS, Vh1, BET, etc.  

Fuck Viacom in the ear.  Twice.

The bad thing is, these kids are going to grow up, and be able to vote.  Do you wonder why we are in such a mess now; why kerry is doing so well in the polls?  Look back to when the indoctrination began, in the elementary schools of the 70's.  Soon, we are going to be completely outnumbered, and the USA will end up becoming like Europe.

Teacher is filling the grand kids with all kinds of bullshit --- on how Kerry is the only way people should vote also.

They are there to teach  --- not indoctrinate. That is my job.

For someone flying the avatar pic and slogans you do, your post is a stunningly contradictory AND missed the point entirely. I don't give a crap what the vote in that poll is - my Point is that there are (chronological) ADULTS within the Nickelodeon.com organization willing to LIE to children in order to produce a political outcome. THAT is what I am calling attention to.

WOW!  I see what you mean by the blatant bias.  One thing you didn't mention is that Bush's face is darkened to make it more sinister, while Kerry had his wrinkles removed, and his face is well lit and bright!

*edited cause the quote tags were fubared.

Fine. I've added a screen cap to the opening post. Look at the images again - tell us you don't think the President's facial image hasn't been gamed to be darker and more wrinkled-appearing and Kerry's hasn't been ridiculously lightened and his hair darkened far more than his hair dresser has ever managed to do before his convention and debate appearances.

It would take only a few minutes to google up the articles about research studies showing american infants / toddlers responding more favorably to young anglo faces in a photo array. This propaganda effort by a (D) apparatchik at Nickelodeon deliberately builds on those results.
