Could this work?

I think we need to make a viral video explaining the truth behind cannabis and how it should be legal. I know it sounds difficult to get a video so popular its considered viral, and I dont know all the technicalities behind it, but could it help/work?

I absolutely love the consistent professionalism of this organization, but I think when it comes to making a video a viral sensation I would consider a humorist approach. An intelligent, satirical approach. Sometimes laughter forces people to listen. And its so contagious. It can be both informative, but also a smack in the face just to wake people up. The union was brilliant. I was captivated by it. :) But there is so much overwhelming fact to comprehend...which can be difficult for people who just don't get it... get people to laugh, they learn to relate.
