President Obama Congratulates StudentCam Winner

Some of you may know that I work at C-SPAN. I've been there for about 2 years now. Each year, one of the highlights is our student video documentary competition. This year we asked middle and high school students to address the topic, "What is the most urgent issue for the President to address once he takes office?" This year's Grand Prize winner was a student named Sawyer. He did his video on Cancer research.

This morning, we aired his full video during our call in program The Washington Journal. As a special treat for Sawyer, we surprised him during his interview with a special message from President Obama. Check it out!



Also, you should take a look at Sawyer's video. It's incredibly touching.



If I haven't said it this week, I'll say it again. I love my job!
