Hey, Canada! Where are our You Tube videos of national leaders?
Oct 4, 2008 Politics
Just watched this video: Hey Sarah Palin
And, I got to thinking…hey, Canada where are our You Tube videos? Are we not in an election too? While I know most of us preferred the Palin-Biden debate over our own national debate, we must have some funny videos to share of our national leaders? Perhaps Dion flustering over his words, or Harper plaigerizing his speeches? Who wouldn’t love to see the “new strong” – Jack Layton taking a Spinning class (if he is going to get strong, might as well be trendy!?). Can’t we write a song about the sad state of health care or broken promises and sing it off key and get some viral video love?
Then again, maybe we are better off letting our goofy political neighbours to the south continue treating us to their gaffs and scandals that we enjoy so very much, and let our politicians (ahem) do their work… The US has given us enough political plunders, scandals, and hilarious flubs over the last few years to keep us in You Tube videos for quite some time. And, it appears that it may continue for four more years should (g-d forbid) McCain and Palin take the House.
Since this is a blog about marketing and social media (not politics) isn’t it neat how the US election is playing out on the Internet, on Twitter (Obama on Twtter ), Facebook (Group: One Million Strong for Barack Obama 760,000 members, and One Million Strong for McCain/Palin 114,00 members) and of course You Tube.

great video!
Thank God for social networking, as well as the internet. If not, people in America would be faced with only one side of the media…specifically down here in the south!
People here still think that Bush is ‘okay’!
