Use your new power wisely and fairly. For if not, with the introduction and advances in artificial intelligence in super computers, future leaders may be robots with lap tops.
(TROUTDALE, Oregon) - The evolution of communications to the masses has evolved from street rallies, the pulpit, to the printing press, to radio to TV and now computer Internet-news has become the leading source of information in the USA and most of the world.
Radio brought Adolf Hitler to power in the 1930's, TV elected John Kennedy over Richard Nixon in the 1960's and mostly likely Internet will elect the next American President.
The primary winner in the tight race between Hillary and Obama will probably be decided in the upcoming primary elections in Oregon - thus making Oregon's most popular source of news, Salem-news.com the deciding factor over TV and newspapers in selecting the next president of the United States of America.
Use your new power wisely and fairly. For if not, with the introduction and advances in artificial intelligence in super computers, future leaders may be robots with lap tops on their lap.
