The internets impact

Youtube is the perfect example of how citizens have increased their participation in politics.  Youtube has many advertisements for videos where the president or runners for elections speak directly to youtube viewers.  That is the best example one could give, when officials speak to people not through a media, but through the internet.  A more specific example is:  many people are expressing their political views on this video.

 They do this because it's effective and they know many people become active online.  Many people comment and watch these videos in order to express their beliefs.  This is so much more effective because it's convinient.  More people will be drawn to this form of activity, because it's easier for them.
