Here is a question I am just going to throw out there:
Look at the example below. Router B has two connections out of its network
to router D, one through router A and router C. All are running eBGP. What
is the best way to get Router B to use Router C, using the MED or the
Local_Pref? Why?
"influence" than the Local Pref

It depends on whether you want to control inbound traffic or outbound traffic.
If you want to control inbound traffic, use MED, if you want to control outbound
traffic, use Local Preference.

Its pretty simple actually. Basically they both accomplish the same
thing. But the local pref is exactly that. Local to the AS.
MED values are carried in to the next AS. But, when an AS receives a MED
value it does not propogate that value to other AS's. Maybe someone else
can explain
