Power to the 13-to-18-year-olds — I built this game for them

The enfranchisement the house cares about most. Not the donors, not the base — the pre-voters, the ones five minutes from their first ballot and no one's handed the manual. The game was built for them: the front-door music game any reading level can play, the literacy-in-reverse of Spot the Lie, the training manual for voting handed over free, before the vote is theirs. Give the most power to the ones about to inherit the room — teach them to score the record before anyone teaches them to swallow the spin. (The floor holds: under-13 is walked off gently, COPPA-clean; 13-to-18 is exactly the band the manual is written for.) Kin: Dear Teens, the training manual for voting, the literacy game in reverse, the front-door-is-the-music-game doctrine. (His coin — machine's read, refine to his.)
