did you give back to the military during the peace corps, it will help you pay tuition.nother thing also is that i support trump as a 27-year-old because of the fact that he is speaking out again. i firmly believe that the inner-city black youth unemployment -- a direct correlation between interstate or -- intercity high black unemployment rate and illegal immigration. i don't see why a lot of blackstone really support trump. also, the youth need to look at illegal immigration. illegal immigrants displace a lot of the youth out of jobs. i hope i expressed everything right. host: i will let you jump in. a couple issues, military service, illegal immigration. guest: i will start with the service piece. young people have incredible he high rates of volunteerism and purchase of -- participate in various aspects of service. back in mean serving in the military. there is a great point about the g.i. bill. -- we seemething our high rate of service and programs like americorps and teach for america. service is something our generation is incredibly interested in. it is great to
