Democracy Without Sound Bites
Jefferson Action is conducting a Citizen Election Forum in Ohio's 16th Congressional District.  You can watch the live stream at Jefferson Action, see the full video from earlier days (and weeks), and prepare to watch the live streaming interaction between a group of twenty-four informed citizens of the district and the two candidates in two weeks. 

They will focus on holding the candidates accountable on three issues the citizens in the district have said the candidates should be focusing on: weak ecomonic growth, unemployment, and the deficit and debt.  Democracy without sound bites...granted it takes a little longer, but it reminds us what our framers risked everything to achieve.  Tune in.
