Some situations just can't be mic checked, guys. Here's a New Hampshire Occupy group confronting Barack Obama:

Here is what the protesters intended to say, according to a paper statement distributed to reporters: “Over 4000 peaceful protesters have been arrested. While bankers continue to destroy the American economy. You must stop the assault on our 1st amendment rights. Your silence sends a message that police brutality is acceptable. Banks got bailed out. We got sold out.”

It's a good point, and it's a point that President Obama needs to address, but you're not going to be able to deliver it to him via mic check.
