As the presidential race gains more momentum, some faces from the past are coming back. In 2004, a precocious 12 year old named Ilana Wexler grabbed the attentions of millions when she took the stage at the Democratic National Convention. As a pre-teen, she founded the organization Kids for Kerry, and now at 15 she is being courted by Hillary Clinton's campaign to chair another committee. But this teen is doing her research and watching how the upcoming election will shape up. Weekend America host Bill Radke speaks with Wexler about the impact kids have on political campaigns and how much her life has changed from three years ago.
