As part of his State of the Union strategy, President Barack Obama answered questions from a new crowd: YouTube stars. The White House invited Bethany Mota, GloZell and Hank Green to interview Obama. Before the chat, the public suggested questions using the hashtag #YouTubeAsksObama . NewsHour Extra is here to help you bring the discussion into the classroom. Use this class activity to analyze the political strategy behind the YouTube blitz and whether the unconventional move helped engage a new age demographic.
