MTV’s Power of 12 election campaign, to which I’m a contributor, has a cool new feature called Power Pics. Here’s how they describe it: Millennials are now the largest voting bloc in the country, so you and your friends have huge power this year. How will you use it? Tell us by uploading your power pic – the bigger, the better – and adding a short caption. The best Power Pics will be featured on MTV, so what are you waiting for? My Power Pic is of yours truly and Mitt Romney, and my caption is “To Ask Tough Questions,” which is something I hope to continue doing of the powers that be throughout the 2012 campaign and beyond. Upload your pic and caption here.
