The Lighter Side of Election, Care of Candidate Zero

Click here to see if you've got the skills to be President - you know, the lightenin' quick arrow keys and the fearless ability to collect votes by eating stars in a maze while dodging voracious cartoon Democrats and Republicans. If you first collect a ticket, button, picket, or cup of coffee then you can win 50 votes by swaying each Democrat or Republican in your favor - AKA eating them Pac-Man-style. (Ms. Pac-Man-style for the ladies.) The game's wahka-wahka-wahka sound is worth it alone.

Nonpartisan Parody: CANDIDATE ZERO is a one-platform pol who knows how to bond with potential voters ("I've always wanted to try yoga"; "Tiramisu is never as good as you think it's going to be"). He's got his own bio ("I invented the after-hours party") and his own mockumentary clips from the mock campaign trail where he mockingly mocks about himself and our "beautiful land of freedom, where woodchucks can chuck and the deer can do...whatever it is that deer like to do." Added bonus: Real footage of a hopping monkey. It's a monkey. But it's hopping.

Student Publishing Program

The Student Publishing Program has been selected as one of the top high school creative writing programs in the country by Web del Sol, the largest nonprofit publisher of periodical contemporary literature in the United States.

The Student Publishing Program aims to be a national nonprofit creative writing program which gives secondary students the writing skills and confidence needed to be published, and then secures the professional publication and promotion of their compositions - one piece of poetry or prose from every student in the grade - in a network of online literary magazines and a series of paperback books available in bookstores nationwide. One hundred percent of royalties from each school's book sales help fund future program participation for that school's students.

The Student Publishing Program supports language arts standards and benchmarks through in-class workshops with professional writers and supplementary online creative writing and publishing resources. The publications also help students at all learning levels demonstrate their academic merit - to themselves and to the community at-large - beyond grades and standardized test scores.

On behalf of our nation's youth, we thank the following partners for helping us spread the word:
