Many people think politics is a dirty business. YouTube and other new technologies give us more access to political candidates. Do you think that will improve our politics?
NOTE: My sincere apologies to everyone from Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland -- yes, I know that Tony Blair is the PM of the UK and not just England -- it was an unfortunate slip of the tongue. Thanks for catching me on it!

No one wants to ... ( 5 months ago by swingvoter001)

No one wants to hear what the politicians say. They only vote their own intrests and not the intrests of the United States. So I have come to the fact that America will get what it deserves period. They haven't done anything to stop this war until it's hurting their poor pocketbooks and wallets. I'm all in for a DEPRESSION. I figure doing 12 years service and 2 kids serving. I've and mine has paid our dues.

Sif he has any power whatsoever. Do you even know what a President is??? He is Senior Executive. The man you see when you make a deal. The man WE see, when we negotiate with the government. Who is the Government?? There is soo much red tape beautifully wrapped inside this political enigma that you cannot really ever know. And even if you did, you wouldn't be able to prove it.

You know darn well ... ( 4 months ago by dreidwaxhaw)

You know darn well that youtube can't improve policits, so don't even try to convince me that it will! Republicans and even Christians, and Catholics are nothing but hypocrites! First, they condemn homosexuality as an abomination, as well as abortion, racism, euthanasia, gambling, etc. Yet, how many Republicans, Catholics, and Chistians are faggots themselves, as well as abortionists, euthanasians, gamblers, and even racists. They are the ones that needed to be exposed, not democrats!

I get so annoyed whenever people discuss politics. I get that way for three reasons. First, politicians aren't to be trusted. Second, running candidates are making stupid comments about the other candidates that I might be supporting. Thirdly, they hide behind the Bible using that Holier than thou crap when it comes to issues like gay marriages, abortions, etc. They need to stop! Okay? Just stop! It's getting annoying and very foolish for people to continue this behavior.

No, the opposite is true. YouTube is so heavily biased towards terrorism, it's hard to believe it is based in America and that it can continue supporting anti-American propaganda with impunity. Those who help terrorists are also terrorists (pres. Bush)

This is exactly what You tube is for as long as it stays as free as it is as a medium and not under control like our cable. This is a well done video discussing the future of your country and politics using You tube more video's like this are needed. Thanks.

LOWER GAS PRICES ... ( 2 months ago by dblkix)

LOWER GAS PRICES NOW...Here's how.
It is time to slow america down.
Americans use way to much fuel, simply by driving too fast, Drivers of all vehicles; cars and trucks, need to slow down. Drivers start setting your cruise control at 60 and leave it, then get in all lanes and "SLOW AMERICA DOWN" gas consumption will drop by 30% or more instantly.then fuel prices will drop. We need to get together on this and save the american economy from collapse.
"SLOW AMERICA DOWN"

YouTube can and ... ( 1 month ago by leatherneck35)

YouTube can and ought to be used to educate and motivate citizens of the world about correct political principles: self-reliance, limited government, voluntarism. Government is force, and should ONLY be used to prevent and punish fraud and violence against persons and property. Today in nearly all nations government is the vehicle and the embodiment of fraud and violence against both persons and property. A legislator who votes "no" 100% of the time will be correct at least 99% of the time.

yes can and ought to.....however it doesn't. the main reason is that those who run youtube don't take it seriously enough. They could turn youtube into the biggest online monster taking over the world if they wanted to. But they just cant be bothered. And instead youtube is over run by uneducated idiotic morons like those who posted comments below who turn youtube into a morons paradise.
