iReporter Clayton Anderson says he liked ex-President Clinton's comparison between 2008 and his run in 1992.
(CNN) — Former President Clinton dismissed critics who say Sen. Barack Obama is too inexperienced for the presidency in his speech to the Democratic National Convention. On Wednesday night, Clinton rallied support for Obama by drawing comparisons between his candidacy in 1992, reminding the audience that "Republicans said I was too young and too inexperienced to be commander in chief." His message seemed to resonate with many iReport contributors. Clinton "showed that being young is not necessarily being inexperienced or not being ready to lead," said iReporter Jordan Sarver of Athens, Georgia, who also commented on Sen. Ted Kennedy's appearance Monday. Clayton Anderson of Savannah, Georgia, said the parallel that Clinton drew between Obama and himself was "most important aspect" of the speech. "I think we all know how productive and positive the Clinton administration was for Americans," Anderson said.

(CNN) — High school seniors and I-Reporters from Smithtown High School East in St. James, New York can't vote — yet. They will vote for the first time next November. But, they are already riffing on the candidates and issues, like racism and immigration, with no filter. – CNN Anchor Nicole Lapin Filed under: I Report Posted: 10:40 PM ET
(CNN) — I-Reporter 67-year-old Nancy Kolger of Richmond, Indiana, responds to the CNN/YouTube Debate format: "As a Senior Citizen I am really disappointed that not one question was asked about Health Care and rising Drug Costs for all the people. I can send you an email response and/or question but I do not know how to take or send a video or download and all that other stuff that younger people do. So therefore I was not given the chance to ask a question and I feel this is a form of discrimination or else lack of CNN taking the time to scan through emails as they have obviously done with videos. Next time I hope you will consider the fact that a lot of the citizens/voters of this country do not know how to use all this modern stuff and it would be nice if you just had a Senior Citizen debate with the candidates and I bet some really good questions besides, wars, gun control, immigration, abortion, gays, etc, would come forth, like health care, drug expenses, gas prices, feeding, clothing, and housing the elderly, more American jobs, etc." – CNN.com Anchor Nicole Lapin Filed under: I Report Posted: 10:06 PM ET
(CNN) – Participation in the CNN/YouTube debate is two-fold: Questions and analysis. Al Rohdri, 22, just graduated from Oral Roberts University and offers this observation: "It's funnier than the Democratic one." –CNN Anchor Nicole Lapin Filed under: I Report |
