Review of If I could talk to a presidential candidate

If I could talk to a presidential candidate is a great example of a youth radio piece and show that teens want a voice in politics as well. Living in Maine I have an idea of what it's like to live in a not-so-hot-spot politically.
It was short, sweet and informative. I liked this piece because it was an honest evaluation of how the country and political parties view Alaska and youth's opinion.
The piece was humorous but got the point across: presidential candidates don't really focus their campaigns on what teens want in a candidate (especially in Alaska).
With the upcoming presidential elections this is a good piece for a show about Election '08 especially for a youth perspective. As this election does more than ever depend on the youth vote Tonei's piece is a very relevant piece and worth a listen.
