Synopsis

"'Hi! My name is Judson Moon. I'm twelve years old and I'm running for President of the YOU-nited States.'
That's how I introduced myself to about a zillion people. I must have kissed a zillion babies, said a zillion hellos, shaken a zillion hands. … Will I get a zillion votes? The answer might surprise you.
Can you picture a kid as President? Imagine what we can accomplish—together—in a country where parents listen. Where teachers give no homework. Where every lawmaker obeys a single kid—me! How am I going to pull this off? Who knows! Read the book to find out."
