Answers To Your Questions About Iraq From Your Favorite Candidate at this Virtual Town Meeting...

THE NEXT GREAT STEP IN INTERNET POWER: THE VIRTUAL TOWN HALL MEETING...

A Great Idea

Although it’s not new, MoveOn has recognized the benefit of the "Virtual Town Meeting."

This coming Tuesday, April 10, at 7:15 Eastern, MoveOn is going to take the Internet to a new plateau: It is going to use the Internet to connect people to the democratic candidates--from the comfort of their homes.

Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Bill Richardson, Dennis Kucinich, and Joe Biden will answer questions from MoveOn.org's 3.2 million members in the first of three unprecedented virtual town hall meetings. The topic: Iraq.
Here’s the excerpt from MoveOn about its plans:

“MoveOn members are asking candidates the tough questions about their Iraq plans, and we're gathering in living rooms from coast to coast to hear the answers directly. The mass media won't be filtering our questions or filtering the answers—-MoveOn will be connecting candidates directly to the people.
“Right after the virtual town hall meeting, MoveOn will survey our members to see which candidate they believe will do the best job of leading us out of the war in Iraq. We will also let MoveOn members know how they can get involved with the candidate of their choice.”

We think that this is a great idea that advances the democratic use of the Internet and allows everyone to participate in the process.
We hope you will get involved and make plans to be among the first on the Internet to use this powerful medium to ask questions and get answers to your most pressing questions about the War, the future and the positions of our candidates.
