Did anyone catch David Gergen last night on CNN talking about Obama's upcoming TV special Wed night?
He was either on Campbell Brown or Anderson Cooper and he said he had talked with Obama people and he was suprised because he had thought it was going to be a 30 minute speech but was told instead it was going to be more like a "tv show". He didn't say this in a negative way at all, but he also didn't explain what he meant.
Has anyone else heard anything or have any ideas what this could be like?

1. A documentary about his life and goals? (Just guessing).

2. Here's what I'd like to see
Obama leading a round table discussion with Warren Buffet, Paul Volcker, and Austan Goolsbee. In a half hour they could thoroughly debunk trickle down economics and how it's bad for the economy as a whole. Include some Perot-style charts and there you go.

3. Now that would be great! Throw in some Peter Schiff and Noriel Roubini for a dose of
reality and we got us some interesting conversation.

4. I just hope he spends some time
on voting, on not being intimidated at the polls and where to go find out your state laws so people know what is real and made up. First time voters can be easily led to think they will be arrested if they are voting from college etc. We need to put them on notice that we ain't gonna take it this time.
