'Presidential Candidate' Voice for Uninsured Kids
Presidential hopeful Susie Flynn has made a splash in all of the appropriate online venues. She has her own website at www.electsusie.com. You can find her on Facebook as well as on MySpace, and she even has six, 30-second TV spots on YouTube. Not a bad effort for someone who can't legally win the election.
Susie Flynn (not her real name) is a ten-year-old girl, and is acting as the figurehead of a campaign for the Children's Defense Fund. With Susie as the voice of the nine million U.S. children without health insurance, the Children's Defense Fund hopes to create buzz and raise awareness so that healthcare is at the top of the agenda come November 2008.
