Homeschooling: A Family’s Journey

Sometimes it’s just good to be alive. First, I read last week about graphic novels profiling the candidates, i.e. comic books by some of the top artists depicting McCain and Obama as superheroes: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/herocomplex/2008/07/mccain-and-obam.html

Now we have Dover’s paperdolls:

Does this bridge the gender gap or create one? At least we can’t say that we don’t focus on what the male candidates are wearing (as was the criticism sometimes when Hilary was still in the race). What a great way to introduce us all to the political process.

Dover promises to have extra outfits available for the candidates. Plus they’re “collectible” so it could be an investment, too.
