"Can members of the Tea Party find common ground with Occupy Wall Street protesters? That's what NBCpolitics.com will try to find out through an online-only web chat.\nThe hour-long web chat, to be held on Wednesday afternoon, will include three Occupiers: A graduate student at UCLA, an unemployed international development worker from New York and an undergraduate student studying Christian ethics at Belmont University in Nashville, Tenn. Their counterparts on the Tea Party side are a 36-year-old college secretary from Indiana, a retired airline captain from Missouri and a 74-year-old Tea Party organizer from Michigan.\nThe debate isn't limited to just these six people. Anyone can weigh in or ask a question via Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or directly on NBCpolitics.com. \nThe discussion is a great example of the Internet's ability to allow people from all walks of life to meet one another and share their beliefs. By opening the discussion up to everyone, NBC is creating an opportunity for people who have very different views on the surface to come together and find places in which they have agreement. \nThe conversation could also reveal that the two movements aren't as different as they may seem. Both are products of discontent with the status quo and a desire to affect the national conversation.\nThe chat begins at Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m. ET at NBCPolitics.com."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
