Survey Nation goes to the streets of San Francisco during the April 9, 2008 disrupted Olympic Torch Relay and talked directly to the people who were there about the important issues raised by the upcoming Summer Games in Beijing, shooting over two and a half hours of video. In this episode, we ask if the Olympic Torch Relay should be a political event or not. Are the Olympics political in nature? Where do the Tibet crisis and human rights issues fit in? Is the Chinese government using the Games to promote their country and economic agenda? And should this be allowed? Your comments are encouraged. Visit us at Survey.com. http://www.survey.com less
