If you think young people don't get involved in politics, think again.

Following the first MTV/MySpace presidential dialogue on Thursday (September 27), you guys had a lot to say about John Edwards' answers to the questions you care about most (see "John Edwards Gets Students' Thumbs Up: 'He Was Very Un-Dodgy And Seemed Honest' ").

A lot of you liked what you heard but thought some ideas might be too good to be true.

"John Edwards has a lot of great ideas, but I wonder how he plans to fund his ideas," said Victoria, 20, of La Puente, California. "And as for removing troops from Iraq, as much as I love the idea, what consequences does he expect with removing so many troops so quickly as the Iraqi government and people depend so much on American troops?"

"I'd like to see how he puts these plans into action," said Danny, 21, from Maryville, Tennessee. "How is he going to handle it when Congress doesn't support him? He can't change it all on his own, so what will he do when he gets resistance from the rest of the political players in D.C.?"

You also worried that his universal health care plan might be too much for the already-strapped government to handle. "I don't feel good about the government providing health care for all citizens when it is failing to provide quality health care for our veterans," said Bob from Green Bay, Wisconsin. "Government health care is not the best answer."

Most of you thought the Democratic presidential hopeful was pretty straightforward — but will he stay that way? "John Edwards was extremely upfront," said Jeni, 18, from South Webster, Ohio. "Will Edwards continue to be upfront if he becomes president? Will Edwards inform the American people what is going on — not only in the war, but with other situations?"

Some felt that the former senator and vice-presidential candidate seemed right at home with the young crowd on the University of New Hampshire campus.

"I feel that John Edwards did an amazing job at addressing the problems that are on a lot of young Americans' minds," said Dana, 18, from Garfield, New Jersey. "It's important that people my age feel that a candidate is listening to issues that pose real problems, such as what would happen if another disaster strikes like it did in New Orleans. Also, he addressed students paying tuition and things he would do to help with that. I really feel he has good ideas on how to fix at least some of what's wrong with America today."

You also had a lot to say about the dialogue format and how the chats could affect the 2008 election. "I think that the MySpace and MTV presidential debates are a fantastic idea because they will be one of the best ways to get the young people of our country involved with politics," said 27-year-old Jennifer from Lexington, Kentucky. "We need more of our young people to voice their opinion and let themselves be heard on matters that are important to them."

"This MTV program is so enlightening," added Rebecca, 26, of New Bedford, Massachusetts. "I have never been very interested in politics, but this format has been a great way to hear the political standpoints of presidential candidates. I felt much enthusiasm for Edwards' viewpoints and campaign and now would like to become an advocate for his campaign."

And while Edwards covered a lot of ground during the hourlong chat, 18-year-old Yezenia from Port St. Lucie, Florida, did point out at least one omission: "I would have liked to hear his view on immigrant issues."

For the wide range of opinions coming out of the dialogue, Edwards emerges at least one step closer to the White House. "He just won my vote," said Kat from Louisville, Kentucky.
