How to Install AWS CLI Version 2 in Linux

[@TheKayleeanna]

Thank you for this video! It was so helpful! I had AWS CLI version 1 installed previously and what I was missing was that I needed to make myself the ROOT user and install in the HOME folder if I wanted to get AWS CLI version 2 to work. Then I simply ran a: export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH" and it worked for me. Thank you soooo much Linux King! Simple and straightforward video!
