The Chicago Media Corporation Presents 10 Questions That Reveal the Disconnection Between Candidates and the American People

Questions People Should Ask in the YouTube Debate

CHICAGO, Nov. 27 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Do you think George Bush knows how much a bus pass costs? When was the last time you think Dick Cheney pulled out an envelope full of coupons to save a few bucks at the grocery store? Does he even know what a grocery store is? Dr. Jessica Davis doesn't want to come on your show to bash the President. But what she does want to do is explain why so many of our national politicians aren't ready to tackle the everyday problems the average American faces -- simply because they have no idea what they are.

Dr. Davis, a political commentator and two-time nonpartisan mayoral candidate, has come up with a list of 10 simple questions that every candidate for president -- Republican and Democrat alike -- should be made to answer this year before we're asked to choose who should be our next president. She'll reveal why:

* Asking "How many times have you taken public transportation in the last
five years?" reveals a candidate's connection with the average American.
* A candidate's answer to "Where did you go to school?" speaks directly to
their passion and leadership potential.
* You'd be shocked at how many candidates for president don't know the
cost of basic necessities -- like bread, milk or eggs.
