From Bill Clinton to Barack Obama, MTV has a history with politics. That tradition continues with Obama's youth town hall Thursday.
Thanks for the opportunity Mr. Obama, I’m aware of the amount of debt United States owe, the numerous event such as: Health Care, Stock Market control of the economy, and the lack of employment stats over the world. Obvious, someone or something (technology) has access to sources that benefit a class by a given opportunity. What is expected by our President in the next two years before the next election and how do you balance America needs and “the construction of race”?
#askjobs, Hi Mr. President, If the private sector does not cooperate and start hiring soon, can you enact a WPA/CCS-style federal jobs program to make a dent in the stubbornly-high unemployment rate? Also, do you think that the lesson of Moby Dick was that seeking revenge destroys you in the end? I'm sorry I missed you at the airport in Dallas on Aug. 9. I tried to get there but couldn't make it!
An African American with MBA, married with 2 beautiful young girls, unemployed for 2 yrs, denied unemployment benefit because I took a $30 day part-time job. What would you do if you were in my shoes?
#ask college Tutition, hello,I am wondering why is it so hard to get money for college when my mother or father doesn't make enough money and Financial Aid doesn't cover majority of it.. I also can't take out a loan without having credit and i have no family support. How can i get money for college???
#askDADT..the war over seas has been going on for quite sometime. i would like to know what our soldiers are really fighting for?
#Askeducation I am a single mom and I am in debt in student loans for about 95,000. I am currently working on my MBA. My concern is that I will not have enough money to cover my education. It is preached to citizens to continue on with education but yet and still you don’t land the job that you need. What is your advice for a single mom who wants to strive to advance by continuing her education but is still trapped? By the way I would love to sing for the White House I have been writing you for months to have that opportunity. My website is www.soundclick.com/telisa. Thank you and God Bless!
#ask education.It's a honor to even tweet my question to the most powerful man in the free world. I also have the dream to become president myself one day. President Obama,as you stated how other countries such as Germany, and South Korea are excelling educationally based from the world ranking. Do you think our country should try the same educational laws. For example Germany goes to school two weeks more than we do and theyre performing better than we are. Devin DeFord
#ask education. Good Afternoon, President Obama. My name is Devin DeFord and I'm a recent high school graduate from Maryland. My question to you is, what do you plan on doing to reform the current public education system
Why is the middle class suffering more than any other group right now? I worked 2 years very hard to get you elected. Now I"M being audited!
Obama said; the gov should be able to tax 100% of your pay and redistribute it as it see fit. All his idea's are Socialist. Your in school do some research.
#askjobs Will the President help push for passage of the Equal Employment for All Act (H.R. 3149)? Credit checks are discriminatory especially so for older Americans. This is a real job creation program. Are you aware of it and that it’s been stuck in Committee for the past year?
How are you going to push for Universal Health care? And how do you think that it is not a violations of our rights as Americans? Personally I feel like it is unconstitutional, how can you argue that it is not?
Islam gets special treatment? lol....I think not. The WH shouldnt be involved in a Day of Prayer. separation of church and state please.
Why did you end the Day of Prayer in Whitehouse which was inclusive of ALL religions yet showed favor of one religion by bowing and removing your shoes for islam? Why the special treatment for them?
with the amount of media and internet available, we should outlaw lobbying...let candidats use public media as a forum, not paid advertising.....
add my face book if you love mtv http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000426071041
Banks are abusing struggling American homeowners. Why do you refuse to stand up to the big banks? Why are the big banks allowed to break law after law in America without reprisal? Why do you refuse to support a National Moratorium on Foreclosures?
When using lies before Congress you go to jail but when using lies to become a member of Congress you get well paid, retirement and NO jail time. When will a law establish jail/fines for using lies to obtain employment with this government? Also when will corporations once again become a non political participant in our elections. This coming election is going to be won by those who have taken all of the money out of the pockets of the American citizen and used it against us. Is this a government "For the People and By the People" doesn't look like it any more.
