Researching with a professor

<p>How do you go about researching with a professor? I'm in 10th grade and I want to research with a Political Science professor in the summer. I took AP U.S. Government & Politics, loved it, and really want to research more about it. </p>

<p>I know that high schoolers who do research with a professor generally do it in a science subject. So is my idea of doing it with a poli sci professor completely lame and pointless, or could it work out? Please give me more advice and details, thanks.</p>

<p>bump… please, anyone?</p>
