Known for his effective use of the Internet, it's probably not surprising that President Obama has cut a video to explain the new health care reform law.

According to WebMD,
"In the video, released July 28, Obama shows people how to use a new web site, healthcare.gov, created to help the public understand provisions of the Affordable Health Care Act."
The fact that Obama stars in this video demonstrates how important he is to delivering the message -- the White House team clearly views him as their most effective salesman. At the same time, the casting choice may also imply there are few Obama surrogates capable of effectively driving such a message.
