Review of If I could talk to a presidential candidate


I never knew that Alaska was the largest state. I didn?t know that many Alaskans weren?t able to vote either? neither did I know that Alaska hadn?t voted for a democratic candidate since 1964. Another interesting thing is that, I never knew that Alaska had a problem with the No Child Left Behind Act too. (I?m from DC and the NCLB Act is non-existent in our neck of the woods as well?)

Tonei did a fabulous job in presenting such in depth coverage of something so important, in such a small frame of time. Not only that, but ? even though it has no ambient sound, interviews, or sounds other than his narrative voice ? he managed to keep my focus the ENTIRE time. Presenting facts, ideas, issues, and personality in a single assignment was amazingly done well.

The tone was formal, yet something about it still spoke to me as a teen myself? maybe because he was a teen too? but I enjoyed it very much. Thanks for the facts Glavinic.

Simple and right to the point. Love it.
