There must be great care taken with the "official message" coming from the president, because internet security has in no way kept up with internet technology there would be a tremendous ability to skew that message by simply tossing it out there on YouTube. Not to mention the "I saw it on the Internet, so it must be true" mentality that so many people have. I'm not saying don't do it, it's a means to greatly increase the dialog between the President and the people and the transparency of government. I'm just saying make sure that the mechanism is above reproach. Erika L. Walker wrote: > So you don't want "change" from our government.
