You need Real Player to view it.
If someone can convert this to youtube I’d love you forever! 
UPDATE:
We’ve got the youtube video, thanks!
Has been up on YouTube for a bit now, check it out.

Good job again, btw. I’m emailing the other girl to tell her, at the very least, not say “all” when saying “Support Iraq,” “Scooter Libby”.
Rachel Moore,
I happen to stumble on your appearance on CNN today via YouTube (watch here) and wanted to give you an email regarding this video. I didn’t really respect your strategy of, “It doesn’t really matter who gets the ticket because anybody could be a better president than President Bush at this point.” While I agree with you, president Bush doesn’t, and can’t, get the Republican nomination. So, yes, it does matter because the democrats aren’t running against Bush.
Then you came up with your second “point” on why people should vote for Democrats.
“I mean, the Democrats are such a diverse group. And all the Republican candidates, every one of them have said they would commute Scooter Libby. They said that they would stay in Iraq and turn it into the next Korea. And all of the Republican candidates –”
You stated false information in this quote. All the Republicans have NOT said they would commute with Scooter Libby and, more importantly, all of the Republicans have NOT said they would stay in Iraq. I don’t know if you were able to hear the Republican college student (although you can watch the video now) but Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul has NEVER supported the war in Iraq (as opposed to democratic “front-runners” John Edwards and Hilary Clinton). In fact, he’s the only one, to my knowledge, talking about pulling troops out of Korea (Republican or Democrat).
So, please, next time you talk to the public become informed and learn how to articulately explain your decision. You also said “Democrats are a diverse group,” but never stated why they were. When the reporters asked you to pick the most important issue you listed a few things then stated said, “…We’re so educated and ready to go.” Once again you didn’t articulate a specific issue. Of course there are several topics that need to be discussed, but you had less than a minute. It would have been better to have one issue and explain what you wanted changed with it.
I just thought I would try to help you so the next time you end up in the public eye you can articulate your positions better. Democracy is great; debate is healthy. The only way you can persuade someone is to educate them when you have a chance. When you make false and blanket statements it has little to no effect and when little, only negative.

Mr. Burk,
The beauty of America is that you’re entitled to your own opinions and to share them with whomever you please. Though we wholly differ on our perceptions of politics and how partisan messages are disseminated, I appreciate your caring enough to voice yours.
Respectfully,
