somehow we have to recapture some of this and let the cohort of young adults now 18-22 who were too young to vote the last time around to recognize that Obama is working for them and that neither Ron Paul nor Mitt Romney has their interests at heart.

Suggestions about how to do this - maybe start with updating this video or making something similar with things Obama did in his Presidency so far - health insurance, getting Osama, ending the war in Iraq for starters.
