Dear all,
Yesterday I was reading my father's favourite magazine and I came across a little article about this video. So I decided to search for it on You Tube and what I found was really shocking!
Please take a look at it and let me know what you think. I believe that it was created by one of Barack Obama's supporters. The video shows a scaring ad against Hillary Clinton. They show her as a crazy oppressor while talking in front of an audience made up of slaves. You get the impression you are watching either one of those scaring movies about future dictatorship or about concentration camps. What is even more shocking is that they used a speech she really told in front of the U.S. people in 1984 but the images are so strong that you won't be able to say anything by the end of it.
I can understand that there is a political competition between the two candidates but I think that this video is a bit too excessive. I really can't understand why the author has been so cruel also taking into consideration that they are part of the same political party.
There is nothing else I can say about it but I'm waiting for your comments.. Especially Sarah's one! I'm looking forward to reading and understanding how an American person feels in front this video!
I had never entered youtube.com before Tuesday morning though I had heard a lot about it.
Wow! It is terrific! You can find videos dealing with everything. I wrote words in different languages on the "search box" and it always found videos that corresponded to my tags from all over the planet!
The videos may be funny, unbelieveble, shocking and dangerous as well. I bet you have heard about those videos recorded by teenagers while they are in class..This is one of the sites in which they put all their "garbage" that can be easily reached by the others. I'm afraid that the more young people watch these videos the more they emulate one another thus doing stupid things again and again.
In addition I think that youtube is very interesting because you can share your personal experiences with people from all over the world. As always, I do apprecite the fact that you can leave a comment so you can get in touch with people without being just captive audience.
You can choose to create a "closed" group and invite just a limited number of people. This is useful for all those who live far from their families and friends because they can continue sharing their lives with them.
Youtube is an interesting educational tool as well. You can find videos dealing with educational subjects that may help you with what you are learning. Students of languages may find everything they want to improve their linguistic skills because nothing is more effective than listening to oral speeches.
What I liked most of this site is the presence of funny videos. Sometimes I found myself wondering how it is possible that people are so crazy!
Once again I must say that this week e-tivity has been useful and interesting...perhaps this time it was a bit funnier than last weeks..
I'm really waiting for reading your comments on the video because it really shocked me.
Have a nice weekend and Happy Easter to all of you!
yours Alida
