So you think you can make a Myspace?

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

About a year ago, various Myspaces began to show up representing the numerous candidates for the role of President of the United States. A few months later the first "Youtube" debate was held with questions coming in from various parts of the country dealing with anything from the war to health care. This continues as Facebook groups pop up asking who would you vote for and such. The role of the internet never played as big a role as it has this time around, and that brings to mind the question, how much will the candidates really do for their internet supporters. What about net neutrality? Has everyone forgotten that there is a chance you will have to pay for "premium content." Also, what about the recent video that talked about the cost of the war for American families and that John Mccain wasn't planning to pull back any troops? What about the younger population like us that has to deal with all this problems as we grow up in a world of quick fixes and entertainment.? These issues really raise the question to the candidates as they appeal to the young voters like us, so you think you can make a Myspace?

MySpace for presidential candidates, huh? Talk about keeping current with the day's trends.

I know what you are talking about. I haven't seen many political profiles on the other social networks so I think the Obama and Hilary campaigns couldn't get Facebooks...or no one wants to be their friend. Sorry if it seems dated, but it was something that came to mind when I thought about making this blog post.
