The Young American was created out of the idea that young people who are interested in politics should have a place to come together and share their ideas. Words can have an impact on society by using information as a tool to help educate others on the importance of being politically active.

In August of 2008, Think Youth was invited to attend the Democratic National Convention as part of the general blogger pool.

On December 29, 2008, Think Youth became The Young American.

The editor of The Young American is Daniel Solis, a college student from California. http://www.facebook.com/dsolis (Let me know you’ve read this blog.)
