The Editor spent the first years of his life in Dapto, south of Wollongong, and it is from here that James Purser is campaigning for a NSW Senate seat. James’ YouTube videos are up there with Lachlan Connor’s personal broadcasts for production quality and that special personal touch. Here’s his first:

If you’re still not convinced about the Purser-Connor synergy just check out this quote from James Purser…

Do you want a representative that has a vision beyond “follow the leader”? Do you want someone who can deal with both sides of politics to ensure that this country regains it’s place as one of the leaders? Do you want someone who views the coming challenges as an opportunity to grow rather than a political tool?

I can be that representative. I can be that someone.

…and compare it to this quote from Lachlan Connor.

If I’m elected to serve as a Senator for the Victorian people I will follow what can truly be called a centrist path. None of this dog-whistle politics, or politics of fear and insularity. None of this me-too popularism. I’m sick of politicians who are anti-intellectual, who are afraid to think outside the square. I think politicians should be people we can look up to; people we can trust.

I can be that people.

Spooky.

Unlike James and Lachlan, I will be be using high production standards from the Sunshine School of TV and Video Production.

By “media diversity” he must mean diversifying the video and audio sync.

If I had used a personal you tube broadcast, maybe my tenure as PM would have been a lot longer. Mother always said I was physically attractive and striking in photographs; so god knows who alluring I would have come across on a you tube feed. Look out Dax Flame.
