Forty-Eight Hours to Submit Your Question for the President
Friday, January 29, 2010
On Monday afternoon, as a follow-up to his State of the Union address, President Obama will give a live interview to YouTube from the White House -- and every single question will come from you. You can submit your questions in video or in text, and you can vote on which questions you think should be asked on
CitizenTube
. Your votes will determine the top questions posed during the discussion with the President. The deadline for submission is
Sunday night
at
8 p.m. EST.
What makes a good question? That's entirely up to you. We would love to see as many video questions as possible, so if you can, record your question on camera and upload it to YouTube. Be sure to keep it under 20 seconds, and make sure the video and audio quality is crisp and clear. The Moderator platform allows for text questions, too - so if you don't have time to post a video, feel free to simply type your question. We'll use a mixture of both in the interview.
If you're considering what your question should be, but missed the President's State of the Union speech, here it is:
Don't be afraid to ask tough questions - this is your opportunity to have direct access to the President. Though we obviously won't get to each of the thousands of questions that have been submitted, you'll have a say in which questions are asked by voting on your favorites - so come back to
CitizenTube
and vote often.
