The youth vote helped Barack Obama get elected two years ago, and now the president is hoping to harness some of that same energy to help the Democrats win in next month's midterm elections.

President Obama will host a Youth Town Hall event next Thu. at 4PM, called 'A Conversation With President Obama,' that will be broadcast on MTV, BET, CMT and MTVu, and streamed online at MTV.com, BET.com and CMT.com. The commander in chief will take questions from the audience and via Twitter.

The audience will be comprised of 250 young people "representing a cross-section of American youth," according to the release. MTV News reports that the special will be co-hosted by MTV's Sway Calloway, BET's April Woodard and CMT's Katie Cook. If you're interested in attending the hourlong commercial-free special, visit MTV's website for more information. Check out MTV's video announcement below, then let us know what you think of the town hall.

I would Not want to be in the same room with him & he going to tell the kids the same thing he told the other Like lies & they are going to fall for it he do any thing for vote well he should start looking for another job

Does anypne even watch MTV anymore? Young voters are waking up to the fact that Obama has screwed them over for life, they know they'll get hit with a humongous bill for all his social programs and failed policies now. If they don't, more fool them.

At my daughter's university, the campus republicans have grown and are extremely active, while the dems can barely keep the members they have. These kids are not stupid.

MTV is a tool of the devil. Ive thught this for a long time - even when I was young enough to care about watching it.

Unfortunately, it's not "Video Killed the Radio Star" and The Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams are Made of These" anymore.
