The "Election '08 video channel" takes a comprehensive, organized look at all Democratic, Republican and third-party Presidential candidates and will soon offer the same for House and Senate candidates. The site features thousands of videos from debates amongst candidates, campaign videos, as well as broadcast interviews and news coverage. Personal videos taken by loyal supporters and detractors can be loaded onto the site with ease. Each perspective offers a less polished but perhaps more human connection with the candidates.
"This is similar to the moment when campaigning transformed from the spoken and written word to television," said Steven Rosenbaum, Magnify.net CEO. "The Policlicks site provides an important place for potential voters to obtain a comprehensive and substantive overview of each candidate in order to make an educated vote. The Internet, and more specifically, meta-aggregation, is the only way to truly offer this much content about candidates."
"The ability to gather information from such a wide variety of sources is unprecedented," said Dan Romuald, Policlicks CEO. "This is a new era of election politics. Voters can see the content issued by masters of spin and right next to it see and hear many other types of enlightening stories about candidates -- good and bad. As voters, we can make up our minds using less controlled information. That's democracy in action."
