As the new “ObamaType” emerges we can glean and enumerate certain facinating characteristics that are clearly atypical to their more narrowly defined, less global political profile that we have come to know and elect.

What’s clear is that Obama already has a global platform without being elected.  The 200k+ crowd that showed up in Germany to hear him speak is a precursor to what candidates in the future will do; Assert themselves globally.

Rapidly Flattening World. With the ever flattening world we will increasingly see the removal the cultural, political, economic, social and communication barriers as definitive components used especially by Presidential candidates who have historically defined themselves according to a set of strict national principles.

Obama is not just “cool” he is intellectually cool, international in world view and speaks a world language forged by the prevailing information super age. Viewpoints are increasingly being shaped and defined by trans-cultural information access via the portals of Internet access. 

We have become a global city…not a village (the old term) but a CITY.  The “Global City” is multi-lingual, multi-cultural and multi-economic.  The city is our planetary cosmos. Although definitions related to “national interest” will not be fully replaced with “human interest” it’s safe to say that the “ObamaTypical” candidates of the future will be speak in sentences laced with international phrases replete with carefully selected, globally appealing adjectives.

We live in the interconnected city now. The relationships between national policies and political figures of various nations is much more defined and the voices of individuals is becoming more and more powerful, no matter the nation of origin.

Future Obama Typecasting. “Obama Typecasting” will have meaning in the future. Candidates will stake out clearly defined Internet marketing strategies that include FaceBook, MySpace, YouTube and text messaging. These are global informational wells where buckets of information are extracted, not just by Americans, but Canadians, Central Americans, South Americans, Europeans, Middle Easterners and the growing Asian masses.

All of this is going to impose an induced morphing of candidates into universal prototypes. This change iVoteAmerica calls the “ObamaTyping.” During the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s we lived within our carefully contained and maintained national identities. Individuals everywhere are being empowered with access to the American political machine and it matters not if they are American; they can read, speak, write and communicate faster than a politician can spin a line or twist a tale.

“ObamaTyping” will become mainstream in the next presidential election cycle. This will begin to attract different kinds of candidates than we have previously known. Most likely, in the next Presidential election (perhaps two) we will have more candidates whose primary source of life information is the Internet, not CBS, NBC and ABC.

ObamaType will become the new presidential prototype.
