What's Interesting about the Campaign this week?

What I found interesting about the campaign this week is the new SNL skit about the second Presidential debate. With Election Day in a couple weeks things are starting to get real personal and real serious, really fast. So to throw in a laugh I thinkthis SNL skit does the job. From the body language to the talking over each other it captures the night with a funny twist. 
Check it out.

What's interesting on the campaign this week?

What I found interesting about the campaign this week was the new Obama ad that makes fun of Mitt Romney's "Big Bird" comment.  Since we know how Romney feels about Big Bird, we get to see how Obama feels. " Mitt Romney knows it's not Wall Street you have to worry about; it's Sesame Street", says the narrator in the video.  The new Obama ad is very entertaining but because of the humor, many feel it may hurt him in the election.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month  (Quick Information)

October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month and while looking through InStyle magazine I found something very interesting. Ralph Lauren has an organization called Pink Pony . The Pink Pony fund is Ralph Lauren's worldwide initiative in the fight against cancer. Their mission is to reduce disparities in cancer care

 and help women who are less fortunate in getting  

treatment in medically underserved communities .

First Wall Street Now Sesame Street

This was a very interesting week on the campaign trail. This past Wednesday was the first presidential debate and, of course Mitt Romney made headlines the next day. One thing that caught everyone's attention was the "Big Bird" comment made by Mitt Romney that said "I'm going to stop the subsidy to PBS ... I like PBS. I love Big Bird. But I'm not going to keep spending money on things to borrow money from China to pay for it." Big Bird is one of the most lovable and memorable characters on Sesame Street. Once again Mitt Romney is attacking the underdog!

Interview with my cool classmate Michael

So this week I got to talk with Com 1002 classmate Michael Faucher. I got to know him a little more outside of the classroom and let me tell you he is pretty cool. Don't believe me?  Check out the interview for yourselves. Hope you enjoy!

 

Here are some excerpts from the interview.

 Q: Where are you from? 

 A: "I am from a small town in upstate New York called Castancha near the Syracuse area." 

 Q2: So you know how people that aren't from the city sometimes say "The city has changed them or an opinion that they had " do you feel the same? 

A: "I don't feel the city has necessarily changed who I am as a person but it has opened me up to a lot of new experiences and has validated some of my preconceptions about it, not in a bad way but there is differently a lot to do here and I am enjoying it a lot more then my hometown at the moment". 

 Q3: What are you studying? 

 A: "Right now I am studying Journalism and it has played a big part in the fact that I have gotten into the radio station and that's been a big part in my time here".

What's interesting on the campaign this week ?

I didn't find anything interesting on the campaign trail this week. I did however, register to vote (round of applause!) and I am very excited to be voting for the first time. To register I visited Rock the Vote and it was quick and easy. So if you are not registered to vote, join now and become a registered voter just like me. 

Go register today! 

What's interesting about the campaign this week ?

For class we had to post what we found most interesting about the campaign this week. Since I know my classmates will post the 47% comment made by Mitt Romney, I decided to have a little fun with my post. This is what I found most interesting about the campaign this week, a Saturday Night Live skit on how Ann Romney feels about the campaign.  I found this interesting because usually when you see the spouse of the candidate on a show it always brings attention to see how they feel about the campaign trail and with a First lady like Michelle Obama, Ann Romney has big competition.
