Youtube for Leaders!

Its election time for America (literally!). The race for the presidents post is on and I support Hilary Rodham Clinton. I hope the country has a woman president at least now! Actually, I am more curious to see how Bill Clinton will be the first husband. :D

Well, the new trend or campaigning is posting your videos on Youtube, The Time invention of year-2006. Truly we have gone techno crazy. Internet has become our oxygen for reaching out to as many as people as we want. Internet is now indispensable for information. How casually one of my friends living in a hostel said to me," We do not read newspapers. We do not even watch those 24x7 news channels. We have the internet!"

So when leaders like Rudy Guilani and Hilary Clinton use Youtube as one of the various ways to boost their campaigns, its amazing. Youtube is not only cheap and easisest ways to publicise yourself but an effective tool to reach to the young voters of my age (in America, of course!). I feel I am now living one of the Isaac Asimov story. Now, a website decides the future in world history. A candidates chances of winning would be decided by the number of views he/she has had! Congrats Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim. Your innocent invention changes everything now.

I am now wondering whether we get to see our Indian leaders on Youtube? Would we want to see Laloo Prasad Yadav or Sonia Gandhi or L.K. Advani on the net?
