probably for the better they tend to think more out out of the box than analytically thanks for the giveaway

What a good question. If my teenage son became president, he would probably try to make the school curriculum more exciting so kids would like to go to school. :) I think most teenagers are quite conscious of the environment and social concerns. There might be a lot of positive changes.

I'd love to encourage my son's reading with this book.

For some reason, that's a tough question. I think teenagers often think of things in extremes so it would be very interesting to see what he/she might come up with. Please enter me in the drawing.

As long as they could sleep in late, I think a teenager would have good ideas.

I think the changes would be along these lines:

1. More White House parties, with more people invited. Lots of pizza.
2. Tax code would get changed to something much simpler. What teenager wants to have to do something which stinks like really bad homework?
3. The President would do quite well with foreign leaders who are decent folks, after all, a teenager just wants good friends, right?

The first thing that came to my mind is that the would figure if we just printed more money we could get out of this crisis. Beyond that, a teenager's fresh thinking would help shake things up. This country can definitely use some new ideas!

I had similar thoughts to Janel - print more money because then everyone would have some! I think there would probably be more of an effort to make everything more "fair" too. It seems like all teenagers I know are always complaining that something isn't "fair" and should be.

Thanks for the giveaway!

I think if a teen became president there is no way s/he would part with his/her blackberry.

Did you know there's actually a teen who became the mayor of his town? I remember learning about it in high school. It was pretty cool.

All I can say is Thank Goodness there's an age requirement to become president. I don't know how well a teen would go over in the White House. Simply because as a teen, I was much more liberal on certain issues, where today as a thirty-something mom with more experience under her belt, I have a much better idea of what working together means & what really is important and what isn't. I don't think the normal teen would be able to bring those qualities with them. It would definitely be interesting to see what a teen would do though.

I'm excited about this book. And what a fun question for your contest! Thanks!

If a teenager because president I think the first thing they would do is put soda back in the schools! At least that is what my two teenagers would do. *lol*

Looks like a fun read... for me and my kids.

I don't know, kids are pretty smart these days. It all depends on the kid, but it could work. It would be interesting.
