President Obama is the first president to appear on You Tube by design. The new president can change the way future presidents communicate with the people. By leveraging a site like You Tube he is also creating an image of being closer to the people and almost as being part of the people. So it looks like The White House and the President of The United States of America have gone public in a way that has never been done before. Personally I think this could be a very exciting beginning to the new form of government that we have been promised for years upon years, lets see where this takes us.
Certainly looks like interesting times for the US and the rest of us in other parts of the world.
I will be watching from afar to see what changes he will bring.
