obama holds something of a press conference, answering 40 minutes worth of questions from regular folks on youtube videos. steve groves, youtube’s director of news and politics programming, says:
…we opened up our moderator platform on YouTube, where thousands of people have been submitting and voting on both video and text questions. Some of them, as you’ll see, were hard-hitting; others were emotional; some were even funny — but all of the questions you’ll see here today were voted into the top tier of the thousands of questions we received. And none of them have been chosen by the White House or seen by the President. So this should be a lot of fun.
