Volunteers & Voter Turnout (Episode 01)
More Americans volunteer annually than twenty-five times the combined number of employees at General Electric, Starbucks, and Wal Mart. This volunteer spirit was directed to the 2008 Presidential Campaign in record numbers, and across different campaigns, these volunteers were empowered with more responsibility and accountability than in years past. The 2008 Presidential Election could yield the largest voter turnout in United States history with volunteers paving the way toward change.
