MTV News Rocks the Vote | Generation X

you have the right to vote music or lose
it
Rock the Vote comes along at the same
time MTV’s fledgling news department is
finding its legs hi I’m Kevin de Sauron
and this is mtv news the second of three
presidential debates was held Thursday
night it’s a perfect pairing welcome
back to MTV’s enough is enough form with
the president there wouldn’t have been
any station in the middle of the country
or any major network who would have
hired me with this hair and it isn’t
just different hair MTV News has its own
distinct style from the beginning
welcome back to our chooser Liu’s
special the home stretch when we did
have a chance to sit down with the
president it was so early in the morning
he was still drinking his morning coffee
and eating a doughnut
it was very unselfconscious I was
expected to act my age the message isn’t
really getting through abstinence well
I’m a little concerned about thirteen
year old pregnancies maybe others are
well I’m very much concerned man finish
boy it was full of really scrappy people
and people who had to really foster
their identities on their own for the
first time ever Xers are out in the
world flexing some political muscle and
holding politicians accountable
interviewing Bill Clinton I stumped him
once in a question where he’d actually
didn’t know the answer who’d have ever
thought Tabitha Soren stumped Bill
Clinton mr. policy wonk and because Xers
are holding the mics we get to shape the
message we take you and your issue
seriously you should take you in your
issue seriously
