Re: Who's Your Hero, YouTube? - You Choose '08

My reply to Congressman Hunter--Charles Dale. Community Counts is a mashup of YouTube's You Choose Spotlight and is a netroots campaign to have the presidential candidates answer our questions, not theirs. View the candidates' videos. Post replies, but most importantly, vote for the videos you want answered.

That was uplifting to hear someone talk about a real American Hero.

Thanks Matthew. I'll let my grandfather know that.

The world cry's out for the knowledge retained in the minds of our elderly. With two minute attention spans cultivated by the media and others. Our children suffer. I'm 62 and my first car was a 56 ford. Things were so simple in those days, that anyone that knew which end of a screw driver to use could keep them running. Anyone ever done a survey on how many of todays college grads know how to change the oil in their autos? By all means Charles share your memories. Peace from Isleton Ca.

Not to degrade myself in any sort of manner--but, I'd like to declare that the individual, founded in the middle of the picture [respectively, to the right (our right) of the surveying device], looks slightly similar to Owen Wilson. The picture I am referring to can be found at the 0:32/1:34 mark. :)

I just thought it'd be nice to make that subjective declaration, when necessary.

Enjoy yourself.

I find it quite uplifting that you are able to connect with your relatives, respectively your grandfather. I, however, am not so gifted whereas my 'true' grandfathers have either died or gone amiss--out of the lives of my family.

Truthfully, I'd have to declare my 'Hero' as my teachers. Essentially, I am referring to the respective assigned professionals that have taught subjective curriculum to me in the past; however, I am mainly referring to my parents. They have shaped me to what I am.

Mr. Dale

You are rightfully proud of you Grandson David. He had people like YOU to inspire him.

I was in the service, and we had to march in parades on Memorial day, and that always ticked me off, that we...the soldiers, should have to 'work' on that day.

in meeting some of the folks who saved our future back in WWII, i was inspired to think differently about that day, and came to think of it as my day to "Celebrate" my contribution and our way of life.

I urge you to tell us your stories.
