Palm has set up a website at http://mobilizethevote2008.com, a play off the popular Rock the Vote campaign. Rock The Vote has been very successful in getting young people involved in the political process and encouraging voter registration. The site calls on Millenials, a new term used to describe individuals born between roughly 1982 and 1994, to get involved in the 2008 vote. The 1984-esque video dubbed “Citizen’s Cry” curiously starts with the dialogue “They say empires rise and fall… Well, we millenials…our silence is why America fell.” While the video paints a dreary picture of our nation’s future should generaton Y not have their voices heard, we applaud Palm’s effort to get folks involved in 2008.
