'Daily Show' to the Rescue!: Obama Turns to Jon Stewart For Help With Youth Vote

UPDATE: The day after Obama’s appearance Stewart appears ready to double down with — wait for it! wait for it! — “When Grizzlies Attack: A ‘Daily Show’ Midterm Teapartyganza.

Yes, watch establishment/Obama-approved Jon Stewart Speak! Truth! To! Those! Not! In! Power!

In the comments, try to guess the toughest questions Stewart will ask. Our money is on the following…


  1. “Can you believe how racist those Tea Partiers are?”
  2. “Where do you get those suits?”
  3. “Do I please you?”
  4. “Could you be any more awesome?”
  5. “When did Fox News stop beating their wife?”

Associated Press:

President Barack Obama is taking his campaign message to “The Daily Show” with Jon Stewart.

White House spokesman Dan Pfeiffer says Obama is taping an appearance on Oct. 27, just days before the Nov. 2 elections. Stewart is coming to Washington next week for the “Rally to Restore Sanity” he is holding three days later on Saturday, Oct. 30, on the National Mall.

The host of the Comedy Central show says the rally is for people who think the loudest voices shouldn’t be the only ones people hear.

Obama recently endorsed Stewart’s event. It will be Obama’s first appearance as president on Stewart’s program.

More from The Hill:

The appearance by Obama is part of a sustained effort by Democrats to try to turn young and first-time voters who propelled the party to victory in 2008 to turn out to the polls again in 2010. The president’s done this through a series of rallies on college campuses, a town hall broadcast last week on several youth-oriented networks and new-media outreach.
