Imagine if you were putting out full Webcasts every day in
addition to working part-time at Macy's and carving out a little
time to be a piano constructor. That's everyday life for
WCNreporter,
one of the hardest-working people in the business. At the time of
writing, he has already submitted 66 iReports. We expect that
number to be outdated pretty soon.
The Virginia Beach, Virginia, resident sent in
questions for Sens.
Hillary Clinton and
Barack Obama.
The Clinton question was used in a "Situation Room" interview. He's
also commented on
rebate checks,
the
rising cost of
food and
severe weather in
his area.
Roller coasters
and
amusement parks
round out the diverse topics he covers. Do you have a story to
tell? Scour our
assignment
desk and send us your own photos and video.
The huge response from iReporters with questions for Sen.
Barack Obama was matched with another very strong turnout for Sen.
Hillary Clinton. More than 60 video and photo questions were
submitted. Hundreds of comments and additional questions were
posted on iReport.com. Discussion touched her candidacy, fuel
prices and the economy.
Clinton responded directly to questions from
sutton85 and
WCNreporter,
which were chosen to air on "The Situation Room." The discussion
also became a major part of stories on CNN.com, where we also had a
chance to feature other outstanding
some
submissions that weren't aired. Did you get a chance to watch
the interview? What answers and comments affected you the most? Any
questions you'd like to ask?
Share
your response as a video commentary.
We asked iReporters to send in questions for Sen. Barack Obama last
week. Now it's time to put Sen. Hillary Clinton in the hot seat.
The Democratic presidential candidate will be in CNN's "The
Situation Room" tomorrow. She'll talk about her campaign and what's
next for her bid for the White House.
What would you like to ask Clinton? Submit your questions as
comments below or, better yet,
send
in a question on video. You could appear on CNN!
It seems there are plenty of people who'd like to ask Sen.
Barack Obama a question. We received a huge response from
iReporters, with
more
than 100 video and photo questions and dozens of comments here
on the blog. Topics ranged from rising gas prices to health care to
potential vice presidents.
Obama responded directly to
two
video questions on "The Situation Room," and we featured some
other
outstanding submissions on CNN.com.
Did you watch the interview? If so, we want to hear from you.

Chile's Chaiten volcano awoke after more than 9,000 years
Tuesday -- spewing clouds of gray smoke, toxic gas and hot rocks,
and forcing the evacuation of residents of the small town of
Chaiten.
iReport.com user
MattFuta
shared this powerful
video of a town
completely covered in ash. We think it's a pretty compelling
story. What do you think?
When we first saw
yosubkim, he
sent a video
describing his
mother with one simple word: perpendicular. His response was
perplexing, and certainly not expected. That was the first of
several great videos illustrating his unique perceptions of current
issues and events. Most recently, he's discussed
global gas
prices and his
notebook of
personal goals.
Take a look at his videos. You can do it, too. If your
computer has a built-in camera, being an iReporter is as simple as
clicking a button, saying a few words and making a quick upload at
iReport.com. Take a second and
send
your video response. It's a great way to share your views.
CNN visited several Historically Black Colleges and
Universities recently as part of the network's
Black
in America series. Students were given the opportunity to speak
out and let the world know what it means to be black in America.
The response has been fantastic, from creative short films to
candid video confessionals.
Superstar iReporter
JFletch reached
out to others
to explore what it
means to be black in America.
Tiff86 describes
being black in America as
"an overwhelming
experience." You can find all of the Black in America iReports
here.
