I am a total reality TV freek...anyway, I watched last night and there was a Young man with Down Syndrome that tried out. He was a great speaker and a advocate. He said he does alot of traveling to promote awareness. He wanted everyone to know that just because you are disabled, you can still live a normal life!
His mom was soooo proud of him, it was wonderful!

You can't, Ruth. The production company that owns the video has made YouTube yank it, and they are the only ones that were running it. There's a clip that was on a local news affiliate, and you could watch that....it shows a little of his dancing, but the full clip was better.
