Your original video could help you be part of the the 2008 Republican National Convention in Minneapolis – Saint Paul. You could be part of the gathering on September 1-4, 2008, and join an anticipated 45,000 delegates, alternate delegates, party officials, volunteers, members of the media, and convention guests. Just upload a video to YouTube, telling in 2 minutes or less why you’re a Republican in 2008. Complete details can be found at the official YouTube channel of the GOP Convention.

If you’re one of the five lucky winners, you may want to consider taking along a Flip Camera. Its easy to use, so you’ll be able to be part of history and capture your experiences without having to deal with the headache that come with the typical camcorder.
