the best way is most like to be for you to learn all aspects of video production. this will hep loads when it come to your editing as you will be able to relate what you are doing with what shots and sound you are editing.
As far as a stable job doing video editing i am sure it is very hard as you will need to be working for a productions companey and a large on at that... many production companies will do all their own editing i.e. the people who film, direct and other stuff will do the editing due to not being able to take on a work force.
i think your best bet is to get in with a television studio and work your way up to video editor, it may well be a case of starting out as a runner/teas maid but this gives you a chance to get to know the industry and the people therein.
it may be a good idea to write a letter to a television company asking for some info on how you get in to the position of video editor.
