President Bush should appear on MTV. Of course, he should demand all of the same control in picking the audience and the questions that Bill Clinton was granted. He should also not be harassed in the media for requesting such control since Big Media gave Bubba a pass.

To show how incestous the media was with regards to Clinton's MTV town hall meeting, let's look at the "Boxers or Briefs" question. The girl who asked that was a daughter of a liberal journalist. She sat with her mom to come up with a "good" question. They settled on the legalization of recreational drugs. President Clinton's staff nixed that question and asked her to offer something lighter.

It's like when Hillary Clinton asks interviewers to provide her with a list of the questions they will be asking.

So by all means President Bush should be permitted to speak on the air with young conservatives about America. Read the MTV forums some time. There are young conservatives who reject SeeBS-Viacom-MTV's partisan propaganda.

My respect for President Bush would increase if he decided to not appear on MTV. Trash is not worth wading through.

The 18-30 year old demographic, which is 30 million strong, accounted for less than 4 percent of the entire voting population in 2000.

In the official (if flawed) final tally, Albert Gore Junior got 0.52% more of the popular vote. 4% can sway an election (or at least the bragging rights).

MTV campaign to mobilize 20 million young voters in November.

In a concerted effort to Vote Democrat, IMO.

IMHO, no person either in or seeking the Presidency should subject himself to this nonsensical foolishness. There must be dignity at that level.

Of what possible use are questions like, "boxers or briefs?", except to mark the questioner as hopelessly stupid? The proper response, BTW, would have been to say, "Young lady, you had the chance to pose a question to the President of the United States. You asked THAT? Please, gain some maturity and dignity before trying again."

We're talking here about a crowd of kids that want to ask the candidates what they thinkk of Britney Spears. Such detached-from-the-real-world morons deserve no respect or response. Simply appearing on such a show demeans the man who does.
