I received an email from actor Kalpen Modi this morning informing me that President Obama has launched a new White House website specifically for Young Americans. The masthead of the new website reads “Winning the Future: President Obama and Young Americans.”

But Obama is hardly “winning the future,” especially the economic future. National Journal reports today that more than 17 percent of 16-24-year olds who are looking for work are unable to find a job. This rate is close to a 30-year high.
