Barack Obama reaches out to college newspapers

Bill Burton, national press secretary for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, held a conference call with college newspapers throughout the country.

“Young people have always, as Sen. Obama has said, put their shoulders to the wheel of history to make change,” Burton said at the opening of the call. “Sen. Obama has been committed to getting college students involved.”

If you remember, celebrity rapper Eminem tried to reach young voters during the 2004 election with his hit "Mosh". Perhaps this time around the college vote will turn out to vote in greater numbers.
