VIDEO:  Young Ohio at the DNC
 
 
Alexia Romero, 20, already has an impressive political resume: she has been a Congressional intern for Betty Sutton (D OH-13) and this year will be heading to Denver for the DNC as a delegate pledged to Barack Obama. In this interview she discusses some of the issues that face Ohio's youth and what makes Barack Obama so inspirational.
