The Young Democrats Convention in Charleston is a place where young adults are talking about history in the making.

"It's so historic that we are going to have either a woman or an African American as the nominee and i'm so happy to be a part of it," says Megan Price. She's a first time voter- looking forward to the opportunity to have her say.

"This is such a critical time for our country that its even more important and young people around the country are finally getting excited."

The excitement for the Young Democrats kicked off Friday night with a speech from Chelsea Clinton. Things wrap up Sunday.

Christine Pelosi, daughter of U.S House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, was scheduled to speak at the keynote dinner but had to cancel because she was sick.

Hey "Old Timer", How about you worry more about living into next week and less about the Young Democrats. VOTE DEMOCRATIC!

Young people are so easily deceived and so are some of the old Democrats. Why don't we ever see these politicians after the election? It's because they don't care about this area! I agree with Old Timer, once you get out and get a job and see half your paycheck swallowed up in taxes, then find out that money is going to the lazy welfare bums that the Democrats suck up to during election time, then they'll see the light! It's been proven through history, the democrats always raise the taxes in order to provide MORE money to the welfare bums! The poor and middle class that aren't afraid to work will be the ones suffering in the long end! I'm not rich by no means, but I know I get hit everytime a Democrat is put in office! Remember when Bill Clinton ran, young people were excited about him also. He promised when he got in the White House his first priority would be creating jobs for everyone. That never happened! Just ask my brother, he was fooled into voting for him, he also regretted it!

Didnt mean to rustle the feathers on the young ones but the economy changes on a constant basis and I dont believe the old democratic party from WV wants to adapt to the changes. Just my personal opinion. Look at the name of the headline.
