Former first daughter Jenna Bush Hager made her debut on the "Today" show Friday morning. In addition to her job as a reading coordinator in the Baltimore public schools, she will file stories as the program's education correspondent.

Today's segment featured an 11-year-old boy in Dallas, Texas, who credits his 4th-grade teacher for encouraging him to take up public speaking. One of his speeches to a teachers' group has been viewed more than half a million times on YouTube, and he's appeared as a guest on "Oprah" and the "Ellen DeGeneres Show."

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
