The following video was produced for MTV's Choose or Lose Street Team '08, where I contribute as a freelance "citizen journalist." Click here to go to this video on think.mtv.com.

On Oct. 7th, Nashville's Belmont University will host the last Presidential Debate before the general election in November. We don't yet know who the Democratic nominee will be (or if 3rd Party candidates will be invited), but we do hope for a debate of substance. Here in Nashville, we don't want to discuss lapel pins, former pastors, or sniper fire. I spoke with some Nashvillians who offered some REAL ISSUES for debate. We've given you a head start, moderators; please take notes.
