11 years old and a political junkie... Really!

Fifth grader Lorenzo Rivera may only be 11 years old, but the Chicago tyke knows more about politics than many adults.

He proves just how much in the new documentary "By the People: The Election of Barack Obama," where he is filmed making campaign calls on Obama's behalf in 2008.

The movie debuting Tuesday on HBO shows captures Lorenzo, only 9 at the time, talking to a confused voter on the phone with a calm and grace beyond his years.
