Mike Huckabee's Learn Our History Releases Animated Children's Film on the Presidential Election

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee's Learn Our History animated educational video series has released a new film designed to teach children about the presidential election process.

The new release, Election Day: Choosing Our President, is a fun and entertaining way to teach children about all aspects of how America chooses its president, including primaries, caucuses, conventions, debates and the Electoral College.

Each film in the Learn Our History series features a group of friends who use a homemade time machine to go back and relive some of history's most important moments. The series is produced under the direction of a group of nationally respected historians and educators.

In Election Day: Choosing Our President the time travelers in the film go back in time to meet some of America's greatest presidents, such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Ronald Reagan.

The film also features an animated appearance by Governor Huckabee. The time travelers meet the Governor during the 2008 Iowa Caucus, and he explains how caucuses and primaries work.

"This video is a great tool to teach children about the election process, and it's very timely in a year when America is electing its next President," Governor Huckabee said. 

Election Day: Choosing Our President is available at select Walmart stores nationwide. "I am elated that Walmart has agreed to sell Learn Our History DVDs," said Huckabee. "Pick up a copy today for your children or grandchildren."

"I created Learn Our History because study after study revealed the sad fact that so many of our nation's youth lack a basic understanding of American history," Governor Huckabee said. "This series is a great way for children to learn history in a fun way that educates and engages them."

Learn Our History has produced 11 films since launching in 2011. A preview of Election Day: Choosing Our President can be found at www.LearnOurHistory.com as well as previews for the other films in the series.

Governor Mike Huckabee was the 44^th Governor of Arkansas. He is the host of the number one rated weekend hit "HUCKABEE" on the Fox News Channel. He is heard across the nation daily on syndicated radio via his "Huckabee Report" and the new 'Mike Huckabee Show."
