Obama is winning. People are endlessly inspired by this man, and cranking out hit after hit on the ViralVideoChart. Some of the movies attack opponents (Vote Different), some are just plain silly (Obama Girl, Super Obama Girl) and some are heart-felt inspirations (Yes We Can). Can you remember the last viral video inspired by John McCain (other than him singing, “Bomb bomb Iran“)? I can. It was a remix featured on Heavy.com starring then Governor George W. Bush and John McCain from various debates and interviews in 1999. McCain kept referring to himself as a Jedi Knight in an attempt to win over young voters.Who inspires you? Hillary because she’s a woman? Huckabee because he’s an evangelical? McCain because he’s a veteran and a patriot? Romney because he’s… (can’t think of anything), Obama because he can speak like a man with the power and the will to change the world?Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas put this together after watching Obama speak in New Hampshire. This is what he had to say from the site Dipdive:

And i was captivated…Inspired…I reflected on my life…and the blessings I have…and the people who fought for me to have these rights and blessings…and I’m not talking about a “black thing” I’m talking about a “human thing” me as a “person”an American… That speech made me think of Martin Luther King… Kennedy… and Lincoln… and all the others that have fought for what we have today… what America is “supposed” to be… freedom… equality… and truth… and thats not what we have today… we think we are free… but in reality terror and fear controls our decisions… this is not the America that our pioneers and leaders fought and died for… and then there was New Hampshire. It was that speech… like many great speeches… that one moved me… because words and ideas are powerful… It made me think… and realize that today we have “very few” leaders… maybe none… but that speech… it inspired me… it inspired me to look inside myself and outwards towards the world… it inspired me to want to change myself to better the world… and take a “leap” towards change… and hope that others become inspired to do the same… change themselves… change their greed… change their fears… and if we “change that”"then hey”… we got something right…???…   

Whether you like it or not, whether you agree with him or not, Obama is doing something that no other candidate is doing (as well): inspiring people to create and share ideas. And that means he is winning.

Sarah Silverman singing with Matt Damon!! - video powered by Metacafe

In one post I’m about to bring down the site’s integ a peg!

But before you go ape shit with me… I’m doing this cause our industry is so hot to produce the next big viral campaign and clients think that its going to help boost their presence online. Truth is most viral campaigns don’t get to their viral status cause it fails to do a lot of things.Such as, bringing out the brands true essence; so basically doing viral strategies that don’t fit the brand or the target they wish to communicate to. Then you have failure in offering relevant extensions to promote the campaign; sometimes executives push to promote the brand more than the campaign, forgetting that the campaign should do the job of promoting the brand.

And lastly and what I’m trying to show with this video… you have to have good viral content! Meaning, it would have to be something other people would like to pass around cause its meaningful, funny and relevant to them and they think other people would feel the same way about it, but also be proud that they spread it around.
