1. The candidates set up the video's by creating their own Youtube channels to upload official campaign videos.The internet in 2008 found that 39% of voters watched campaign related video's online during the election. President Obama received a total of 1.9 million views compared with Sen. John McCain's, which got 1.1 billion views on Youtube. I think Obama used the internet to organize his supporters. I feel as though he plans to continue using online videos. I think President Obama was more successful because of the video's he put online. If it wasn't for the video's on the internet then Obama wouldn't be president, because of the Internet he became president, and if he haven't put those video's up on the Internet then John McCain would be president. But I think it would all be the same as today, if he was.
2. I think it changed how many viewers there were that looked Online. Well I do feel that it is positive for the Americans to have access to candidates 24/7 because they can look on the Internet to see what's going on in the world today. Some people don't watch the news, or television to see what's going on. I think they would rather look on Youtube to find out things more. By the President putting more video's online, i feel as though more people would want to watch him.
