Hey, Ben and Jerry. I am a young college student living in Washington State. Two years ago, there was an initiative in my state to begin labeling some foods seen as genetically modified. It failed, but for a long time on campus some student groups were really pushing it. Many times they partnered with one of your trucks to hand out free B&J ice cream in support of this measure. I counter protested every day that they did this. (The initiative failed.) I am wondering when do you decide to fight for GMO labeling and why? As many citizen initiates are imperfect, do you feel it is best to support any measure no matter how incomplete? And, if I'm speaking freely, I'd like to know why you choose to do so, because my personal assumption is that it's something of a cynical marketing ploy , in the absence of peer reviewed science that shows that GMOs are somehow more dangerous than other foods? Basically I just would love to get inside your head on this one.

At a recent UW dinner, your speech said to fix our states educational problems, raising revenue is needed. However, you managed to go the entire speech without ever having said the word "taxes." When are you prepared to advocate for higher taxes to improve public services, if at all, OR what are the political realities that make this difficult? Secondly, what is your position on corporate welfare especially towards Boeing & Microsoft? Finally, I'm a big fan of your ending the death penalty during your term, thank you for that :+)

Wow thanks for being here! I hadn't heard at all about this. Ignoring gaming's recent tempest in a teapot, what do you think the most unexpected difficult thing about making games/things about games is?
