Sometime, I like to throw ideas out there not in believing I'm 100% correct, but just because I don't like ALWAYS taking a critic or a scholars work for what it is, sometime they are wrong, sometimes I'm wrong. haha I dont mind being wrong though!
Back to the topic. I got to thinking about social media, ESPECIALLY Youtube after reading Dr. Bob's comment on my last post. What IS this next election going to look like. Can we even being to imagine the new sites that will up all of our social capital and abilities to engage in social activism? What do you think? Have any ideas?

Because it is SO true, social media especially helps candidates understand more than ever before who their voters are and how we think...
Social media by the next election will have evolved and be so involved that aliens will probably appear from outer space to recruit believers and coerce them to vote!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be surprised if Obama's re-election campaign were to center on and dominate Youtube: it's free, popular, and addicting.
