Here's my latest video, which was inspired by such disparate influences as Steve Kirsch's analysis of who would make the best president and the Obama girl video. Mostly it was inspired by John Edwards' leadership on the issues.

John Edwards inspires us to be the best we can. This video is exactly whst is needed to show the differences between what some label the top two...Obama, Hillary....think again folks...JRE is the leader we have been waiting for!

we need to do.....notice how the other 2 'leaders' always manage to clone his ideas after he comes out with them? Hubby and I mark time until one of them does a version and then laugh and shake our heads.

Unfortunately, I think we are going to get Hillary shoved down our collective throats just like we got Kerry shoved up our collective a**es. Sorry, but even tho I voted for Kerry, he was NEVER my choice.

Every time Edwards comes out with a new plan, take bets on how long it takes for Hillary or Obama to copy it. Fun with politics!

:kick:

Informative, fun and I like that it comes from a supporter instead of an advertising agency. I also like the Obama crush girl video reference.

You could tell it wasn't from an advertising agency? Was it my crude drawing of the mouth that gave it away? LOL.

and I said out loud "eeewww" even before you did. Great job on the video. And great job to Sen. Edwards on his forward looking plans.

Eeeeeewww!

You did a great job with this one. The message is powerful and great!

I love it.

John Edwards it the right choice for 2008!

This really delivers the message.

K&R!!

Super video!

Don't read your picture titles to us. We're not George Bush. We know how to read. We are not Morans.

In fact, don't have a narrator at all. The joy of the Flash animation of the late, lamented Symbolman was that he let the pictures and the titles do all the talking. And he let the soundtrack comment ironically or forcefully on the rest of the presentation. (Check his Saddam Hussein piece with Bing Crosby's version of "Thanks for the Memories" for a good example.)

I have no problem with the sentiments expressed, but remember you're talking to smart people here. It will take a lot of effort to create videos and campaign commercials to reach all those people who happily voted for Bush, and very few of the YouTubers have the proper experience to do it. So you're mostly talking to the convinced. And the convinced are smarter than the average square. Know this, believe this, and don't narrate the titles of your films. Okay? No hard feelings?

I can't, however, assume that everyone on the net is not visually impaired. People with disabilities use the net too, and I think it would be nice to consider them. Also, many people do not read as fast as the titles go by. Now, I wish I could say that I'd really thought all this through before you made your comment, or that all of my videos were made to be accessible to people with disabilities, but the truth is, I really didn't think it through that much. I'm just presenting a "devil's advocate" response to your position. (And judging by the number of Obama and Clinton supporter out there, I am definitely NOT just preaching to the choir with this video.)
