ASP.NET MVC3 JSON Model-binding with nested class

Question

In MVC3, is it possible to automatically bind javascript objects to models if the model has nested objects? My model looks like this:

 public class Tweet
 {

I experienced the same issue, however in my case this was related to how the data was being transmitted from client side. Make sure the AJAX request is using the proper headers and formatting. For example:

    dataType: 'json',
    contentType: 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
    data: JSON.stringify({
        MemberId : '123',
        UserName: '456',
        Parameters: [
            { Value : 'testing' },
            { Value : 'test2' }
        ]
    }),
