I must say that I was involved in the MTV/Myspace experiment with young voters and presidential candidates. I listened to Ron Paul, Obamba, Mrs. Clinton speak about their views but also was able to watch them respond to young folks(the most it has been, ever!) that are involved and truly concerned with the future of this country.
I am impressed. I hope that this country's newer generation of voters actually make their voices worth a flip.

How was the overall experience? Did the media come across stilted or anything? I'm interested more from a technical standpoint than a content standpoint.
Thanks.
Do you think the younger crowd will be the ones to get a woman or non-white male into the office? I haven't been following this stuff too much but man, I'm so excited to see what happens!!!
I'm glad that you are taking a deep interest in the political scene. I want to encourage you though not to get caught up in the "candidate speak". Weigh what they say with the facts. Unfortunately at this time of the year, most of the candidates say what they think you want to hear.
I agree with dukes pokes. Many times candidates will say whatever the general public wants to hear and not what they truely believe. I hope that you will look past what they say and look to see what they have done in their previous positions and how they have voted in Senate meetings, if they are in the Senate which most seem to be.
It's about time someone looked at tomorrow's future and paid attention to their voices. I for one am still boggled as to which candidate to vote for. I do hope, whoever wins, they keep their promises to the American people because we have had too many presidents in the past that forgot all about their promises, once they entered the White House.
