With a little over a month to go until the *Republican* YouTube/CNN debate I want to encourage you to get your question submitted to YouTube sooner rather than later.

While I'm hopeful that my question will be asked, here is another that I'd like to see our candidates answer.

It comes from YouTube weblebrity MelissaJenna (Melissa Compagnucci of San Luis Obispo, California):


I've looked through a lot of the questions that could get asked. And while the actual content of the question for some of the videos might be good, most would never make the air because of horrible audio, lighting, and length. On the other hand, Jenna's video is short (30 seconds) and it looks and sounds good which could mean that her question will make it to the candidates.

With that being said, let's play out how we'd answer the question. The obvious and correct answer to weave in to the opening response to this question would be to say both your mom and your wife -- two women who most everyone can relate to in one way or another.

But I'm interested to see which women they'd choose to discuss next.

For me, I'd choose Mozilla's "Chief Lizard Wrangler," Mitchell Baker, whose dedication to open-source applications has helped improve life in the modern world. She has a killer entrepreneurial spirit which is something I admire. Another I'd point to is HP's CEO from 1999-2005, Carly Fiorina, who is/was always considered one of the hardest workers in the corporate world. I admire that vigor.

But that's just where I'd start. There are many others and I look forward to hearing who our guys look up to.

Who would you choose?
