MTV Networks is planning to host a live town hall with President Obama October 14, an executive familiar with the program confirms to TVNewser.

The town hall, which was first reported this morning by Politico’s Playbook, will be held Thursday October 14 at 4 PM, and will run on MTV, BET, CMT, MTV Tr3s and other MTV Networks. The executive also said the event would be streamed live online via the network’s websites.

Politico reports that MTV’s Sway Calloway, CMT’s Kate Cook and BET’s April Woodard will host the town hall, which will have an audience comprised of young people.

“The only place youth turnout will be high is in CA because of the marijuana initiative.”

Are you sure? What about: “The vote was yesterday? Dude, I spaced it!”

[Mr. Silverback]

This won't matter. It sort of reminds me of this graphic:

Now, let's put MTV aside and talk about the youth vote in general. If the youth vote was really going to matter this year, Obama wouldn't have been at UW-Madison last week. If he's going to one of the most liberal colleges in the country, in a city known far and wide for far left bilge, in a state he won by 14 points, to campagn for an 18 year incumbent (who almost didn't show up lest he be seen with Emperor Zero) to ask college kids for their votes, then there ain't any youth vote coming, baby.

Priorities I guess. I know Prop 19 is the least of my worries there are 2 props that will be increasing fees here so that and the Senate and Govenors race are my top

Crap...let's try that again:

RE :”I have digital cable so my cable box is programmed to skip over MTV. You may have them blocked but your monthly bill is still going to Viacommie through SeeBS, LOGO (the gay network), Spike, Nick, Nick Jr., Comedy Central, MTV, VH1, BET, TV-Land, et al.”

That's OK, libs in MD have to pay for FNC and FBC, FNC is on almost every plan.

I want Comedy Central for South-Park, that is about it.

These people (obama and his media) are so transparently manipulative that it's pukeable.
