Now all we have to do is get rid of CNN

Great, now CNN can pose user-submitted questions to the front-runners while continuing to ignore and give no time to the canidates that the public would actually like hear a little more about.

something more ...

I think it's another way to massage the public into thinking that
the candidates in the Democratic and Republican parties are
going to listen to you when the reality is that they are fully aware
of public needs but are owned by special interests. You Tube is a
way to clarify your concerns but don't think for a moment the
elite is going to stop all that graft and corruption just because
you need something!
Go on You Tube and talk issues that lay under the obvious. Go
and vote for candidates that clearly see that the US is going
down the road to fascism. We need a real citizens candidates
and none at the moment fit that bill.

What could the world become with all those people who want a sociable workable model of life(what life genral works towards as it becomes more evolved)?
1) for his poisons.
2) for his unfairness and losses to all.
3) for his life and so i want him to beg and die.

MTV Mexico did it first last year it is not a novelty from CNN/YouTube

On may of last year, MTV Mexico produced "We Are 30 Million" where the kids submit their own questions directly to the presidential candidates. Take a look here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pe_M9o4-vlI

I would like to know the candidates posiition regarding putting a lock box on Social Security funds/ Billiions of dollars have been taken from the funds (including the bridge to nowhere). Why is this allowed?
