Young People & Politics -- Where to From Here?

July 15, 2010

American University Radio 88.5 FM talks to young progressives in the first part of a conversation about the political issues important to young voters today -- including MPAC Government Liaison Alejandro Beutel.

In the 2008 campaign, President Obama won over young voters in droves. What's happened to that enthusiasm since? We talk with young voters attending a national conference of progressive youth about the issues energizing them today.

Participants in the 2010 Campus Progress National Conference in Washington D.C. talk about the political issues they're most passionate about and discuss the use of new media in mobilizing young voters.
