Ask the Candidates a Question — Now extended until 4pm (ET) Today!
Senators McCain and Obama have committed to answering the 14 questions young Americans choose as most important to them in The Walden University Presidential Youth Debate. Send your questions in below, and then choose the final questions on September 30th!
Their video responses will air October 20th right here, not only giving young Americans the answers they need to vote for the future they want, but also giving Americans of all ages their last look at where the candidates stand on the same exact issues before the Election!
Found via "feministing.com", which apparently intended to solicit a few barbs for McCain/Palin, and a softball or two for Obama.

Question to Obama: Senator Obama, in your opinon, list your qualifications, that qualify you to be Commander in Chief of our military and do you feel that the militay will follow you?

“Barack 0bama, with the president seeking $700 billion dollars and unprecedented power for the Treasury Secretary for the next two years, it is important for us to know, who will you appoint to be your Treasury Secretary?”
FReepers, everyone needs to submit the question too.
The more that submit it, the better chance it has of being asked.

• The red phone rings at 3 am and you pick it up. They tell you a nuclear bomb has gone off in a U.S. mainland port. What do you do? After the emergency response procedures are put into place, after the recovery efforts go into effect, after you visit the site to pray and survey the damage. What is your first concrete foreign policy act in response to that? Bonus: When it is investigated as to how this happened, it turns out it was smuggled through the U.S. Mexican border, what do you do?
• Has the constitution and the basic freedoms of Americans been damaged by the war on terror? And if it has, will you pledge to undo the damage? Which amendment do you think will reverse the damage that has been done to the Constitution.
• What is the worst plank in the Current Democratic/Republican Platform, which one do you think doesn’t belong there?
• You’ve been president for a year and gas spikes up to $6.00 a gallon. Do you as president do anything about this? Beyond the short term solutions of releasing the petroleum reserves etc. Or is that not the president’s job?
