BFTFI Founders CNN-YouTube candidate questions are getting play in campaign war rooms. Jeff Parcher, a senior campaign advisor for Bill Richardson’s presidential campaign viewed the student videos and shared his reactions in a July 20th e-mail. “This debate and the tremendous participation by young people all across this nation has been a huge win for democracy,” said Parcher. “These videos literally have the effect of putting voters voices and faces in the middle of campaign war rooms across the country.” According to Parcher, “Participation like this has real impact - it shapes the political dialogue in very positive ways by infusing grass roots perspectives into debates that are too often governed by the perspectives of a very narrow spectrum of America’s media elite.”
