View of the Presidential Candidates

The 2006 mid-term elections changed the balance of power and proved that college students are becoming a powerful force in politics.

The race to announce for the 2008 Presidential election is picking up steam. Candidates are lining up for their shot at the plush mansion on Pennsylvania Avenue.

The Daily Jolt is offering space to student supporters of each campaign to create a profile of the candidate that they believe should become the next President of the United States.
