CDA Statement on McCain

June 12, 2008

College Democrats of America Executive Director Tamia Booker issued the following statement after Senator McCain claimed during tonight's town hall meeting in New York that he would be able to compete for the votes of young people this election:

"John McCain couldn't have it more wrong. Young people will not support Senator McCain this election because they know McCain is the wrong choice for America's future. He wants our troops in Iraq for 100 years, won't do anything to help the uninsured, and has failed to help Democrats make college more affordable. That's why young voters are supporting Democrats in overwhelming numbers and will play a pivotal role in electing Barack Obama president this fall."
