Debate at FIU!

Written by: Franco Caliz-Aguilar on Nov 6, 2007 7:30 AM EST

Progressives don't get equal air time. They're out numbered 40-1 on the radio talk shows. So whenever we get the chance to fight back, we hit them with the ol' Dean bat and knock one out of the park! 

In just a couple of hours (10 AM EST-11.30 AM EST) Florida Iinternational University Campus Corps (DFA's University Branch) will participate in the first ever radio debate on education. The College Democrats, College Republicans and the school's most visible libertarian on campus will sit down for a four way rumble with myself, the head of FIU Campus Corps.

The surprising thing? The reason FIU Campus Corps was chosen to participate-despite being in it's first semester of existence- is that, we're the most active political organization on campus. So in the center of the main building of FIU, we will discuss education, a topic that the Republicans know how to screw up and try to profit off of, and the Democrats haven't had the backbone to step up and fight back for much too long. Maybe today's election will change somethings.

Tune in on your dials in Miami to 88.1 FM or 95.3. Maybe stream it online at http://wrgp.fiu.edu/ 

And good luck to all the candidates out there this election day who are fighting the good fight! Remember folks, you have the power!
