Stas Gunkle took on topics such as alternative energy and Sarah Palin in his postings, which leaned toward Barack Obama during the campaign, the Chicago Sun-Times said Tuesday.

"It was not, like, really hot," Stas said. "We talked about it, and I read some Scholastic magazines." Stas's political proclivity could be genetic. His folks are both academics who have their own blogs and helped him start planetstas.blogspot.com when he was in kindergarten.
