The talk of this year election is the youth. Their turn out in numbers, and how much more supportive they seem. A coalition of youth formed to Barrack Obama, they are all very zealous about him winning. Obama is 3 to 1 in New Hampshire, 2 to 1 in Nevada, and in Michigan nearly 50,000 people voted "uncommitted" because Clinton was the only name on the ballot, all of these statistics under 30. He is definitely an incumbent to the youth in America. Caitlin Ellis, 20, says "A lot of my friends from home are Republicans, and it's refreshing not to have to fight tooth and nails with them when I say I'm for Obama, with this it is more than safe to say he has managed to be liberal yet conservative, aware and respectful of both right and left wing.
In the article it is made clear by Johnathon Beam, 21 that Obama is great at making speeches when he says "If we were electing someone on the basis of their ability to give great speeches, then Obama would be a great choice. Where as I would agree but as the article went on it seemed as if he would continue to be progressive. If I was a constituent, he would have my vote.
