there's a pretty decent chance, that many won't know who Lawrence Lessig is, so i thought i'd include this:

Moving this video to winkler1's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 3 days.

I really liked that!
*politics *promote

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by maatc.

Adding video to channels (Politics) - requested by maatc.

moral courage, character, integrity, political decency...... oh hell, sign me the fuck up!!....highest office in the country, on the heels of 30+ years of oligarchy??? Sure, why not, guess we can take a chance that this is not another fekkin' ruse-sign me the fuck up for the nice guy nobody....after all, it's either him, a mannish girl-Friday for the elite, or Skeletor. Lessor of 3 evils, or 3 for the festival, 1st choice easy, 2nd choice bit harder, and third, more difficult but doable a figurine......

Lessig uses all the right pills to get all the right thrills, softspracht, even-meter, so calm and convincing-pitting dem against repub, like it isn't a scrimmage of the same team-members with different colored jerseys.......JEEZ!

Very well done. You successfully backed Obama in an unbiased fashion and you've clearly done your research.

I really enjoy listening to Lawrence Lessig's speeches. I'm a Republican and Ron Paul supporter, but I know that he doesn't have a chance to win. I voted for him in the primaries, BTW. So if I can't have RP, then Barak is my second choice. I used to love McCain, but something changed in him around 2005-2006. He is creepy now. Hilary is ultra-liberal and has too many ties to special interests. She's my senator, and she has done some good for NYS. But I would hate to have her be my president.

McCain cannot rally Republicans and he can just forget about the independents. Hilary is also way too out there to really capture all Democratic vote. I really think Barak will win the presidency. He does have some checkered things in his past, but overall I think he is the best person out of this bunch (save RP) for the job.

Wow, that was incredibly convincing. Even as primarily a highly critical piece on Clinton it came off very unbiased and representative of her.

One of the more interesting things he mentioned was the fact that the Clinton's "Rovean" method of politics has ended up hurting her in these democratic primaries. Sadly, it's risky to say something thoughtful and intelligent during a presidential election, as it's easily twisted and turned around against you. Obama has chosen the high road in terms of political attacks and stuck to it, and has clearly profited. People who vote in primaries aren't as interested in these bullshit tactics that the Clinton's have perfected. The real question remains however, will his nice guy image be able to hold up against the Republican attack machine? Even though McCain is a hundred; Republicans tend to fight dirty.
