So to use the service, just go to the page and enter the search term you are looking for. Since it is just confined to the election right now, let’s say you are looking for the candidates’ position on gas prices. Just enter “gas prices” and hit enter. You’ll then get a list of YouTube videos where the words “gas prices” come up.
