Second, in today's paper, I was reading that Obama is going to use his web 2.0 network in a big way to communicate with Americans. You Tube might be one of the ways he plans on by-passing the broadcast media to reach out to people and keep them up to date on what's going on in D.C. <br><br>But you're absolutely right about where he shines: in front of people. He's not good at the in-studio podium speech, but he really lights up when he's got a crowd in front of him to speak to. If there's a way to marry his web 2.0 plan with live audiences, then I think he may have an effective way to keep people energized and engaged in the day-to-day stuff of politics.
