BSB interview with Presidential candidate Chris Dodd
As a part of The New Hampshire Project, BSB chief (and PB alum) Jerid sat down for a fifteen minute interview with Democratic Presidential candidate Senator Chris Dodd.
It’s an excellent interview by Jerid. Having participated in a Meet The Bloggers event before, I know both how powerful these opportunities can be, and how difficult it can be to interview candidates as a normal citizen.
These kinds of events are tremendously important. So listen, learn, and comment. If candidates notice, they’ll be more likely to participate in the future, and really, the blogosphere is perhaps the most democratic form of media, with low barriers to entry and easy opportunities for readers to participate. So participate! Dodd gets it, and if others notice our influence, they’ll get it too.
This is probably the most informative view of Dodd I’ve gotten to date! I know a lot more than I did before I listened, and honestly… I like what I hear. A lot. He was really on top of all of the issues.
How awesome is it that we’ve got so many great candidates on the left, while the right has a bunch of jokers? (Like Mitt “double Guantanamo” Romney!) There are a boatload of Dems running that I’d be happy with as President.
