Because Moderates Shouldn't Be Drown Out

One of the funny things about political activism, whether on the left or right, is that those with moderate (centrist) viewpoints are often missed.  Talking heads that yell the loudest and espouse the craziest ideas are those that get the most TV time.  For this reason, the only news TV show I watch regularly is The Daily Show.  Last night Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert announced an event at Washington D.C.
We're looking for the people who think shouting is annoying, counterproductive, and terrible for your throat; who feel that the loudest voices shouldn't be the only ones that get heard; and who believe that the only time it's appropriate to draw a Hitler mustache on someone is when that person is actually Hitler. Or Charlie Chaplin in certain roles.
Also Stewart had President Clinton on, who had an excellent interview.
Part 1 and Part 2
Why can't we have democrats that are actually in office do this much?
