Obama Speech: 4th most viewed video in the world on YouTube

NCfan

While cable news shows gorge on campaign sparring, Obama's uplifting speech is absolutely dominating YouTube. The 34-minute address from Ebenezer Baptist Church is currently the fourth most viewed video in the world on YouTube, trailing two Britney Spears clips. Not only is that unusual traffic for a long political address – people also like it. On Tuesday, viewers voted it the second most "favorited" video in the world. It also drew the second highest number of incoming links, a key indicator of web interest that drives Google page rankings. Check out the comments below it.

No doubt if diebold ever bought Youtube, Hitlery would come top, though.

Have you seen it? Its absolutely amazing. i'm not ashamed to say, as a 35 year old man, i was brought nearly to tears on more than one instance. i wanted to jump up, scream and applaud while sitting in bed, in my pajamas. with my laptop.
