How many of you want to grow up to be Steve Jobs someday?” asked Michele Bachmann during a Rock the Caucus event with Iowa high school students today in Iowa.

Displaying her iPhone, she said.” We love these things, we couldn’t imagine living without these things anymore.” reminding them that when she was in high school the phones were “wired into the wall.”

“Today you walk around with this, you got not only your phone on this, you’ve got your entire music collection, you’ve got music videos, you’ve got instantaneous opportunities to access all the information you could possibly access.” she marveled, explaining that she wanted that same innovative spirit to drive their generation.
