EPTThis is nothing like the love between TL and ThePortraitArt.
My goal isn't to get my words in an interview with the president, but rather to get others to participate.
If, however, the TL community wanted to sponsor a question the longer it waits the harder it would be to get a question to the top, where it will get more views and more votes and retain a high probability of being chosen. So if you want to sponsor a comment/question you better get on it and pick one that gets TL all hot and bothered.
I suppose TL conquered youtube and the internet once. Why couldn't we do it again? Who knows, maybe we could get the president or other well known individuals to attend an E-Sports event. (Admit it. That'd be cool no matter your political beliefs/affiliations. And it would be a huge advertisement/publicity for E-sports)
The interview occurs on the 30th so we better get on it if we so choose.

As many of you are probably aware there is a "open forum" on youtube where members may submit questions/comments which the president possibly could address in an interview following the state of the union. The more votes a comment has the more likely it is to be addressed.
I do have a question posted, and yes I would like more votes, however that is not the only reason why I posted this blog.
It is a rare opportunity when you can challenge and possibly change the political beliefs of another. Let alone complete strangers in a positive setting. I do not believe that my question/comment will be addressed personally. However by participating ad approving of good comments made by others I hope that in a small way I help important and worthy questions rise to the top, gain visibility, and become assessable to more people.
In a democracy it is not just about having your own voice, but to make sure the voices which deserve to be heard are not drowned out.
Here is the link to participate.

To find my comment type in "moral compass" in the search box on the right hand side and look for the comment by youtube user hungrysc2.
Please participate and vote for those which you deem worthy.
Thanks.
