John Edwards, one of the democratic presidential candidates in 2004 is using BitTorrent to spread his campaign stuff. Campaigns are pretty expensive, so sharing bandwidth is a good idea.

Edwards is likely to run for President again in 2008, so if you live in the USA, and you want a president that supports BitTorrent, vote for Edwards.

The campaign movies on Edward’s torrent site are not really spectacular, but it is good to see that he recognizes the power of sharing.
