On Wednesday night, Mitt Romney told us he'd fire Big Bird.

Seriously!

If you want to protect Big Bird, here's how: Log on to Facebook, check your voter registration status, then share the app and make sure your friends are registered, too:

Sesame Street friends aside, the debate on Wednesday reminded me why I'm proud to support President Obama.

He told us the truth. He treated us like grown-ups, and he kept it real, talking about what we need to do to put America back on track. The president said point-blank that we've got to improve our education system by hiring more teachers and keeping college tuition low.

That wasn't a zinger -- that was some straight talk from a President who's fighting for young Americans.

Looking for more facts in your face? Obamacare allows young people to stay on their parents' insurances plans until they're 26. Millions of young adults including more than 3.1 million who were previously uninsured have the President to thank when they don't have to shell out the big bucks for a check up.

President Obama's got our back. He's got Big Bird's back -- and Bert's, Ernie's, Elmo's, and the rest of the gang on the Street.

We've got to get his. #SaveBigBird and get on #TeamObama.

Make sure you can vote this fall -- and that your friends can, too:
