Hello. Wake Up.. Use the Web

scottkwilder Ah.. more than 42 Million Gen Y members can vote in the upcoming election. And why is that only one candidate is really using the web And why is it that only candidate thought to go to an expert or at least someone who lives and breathes online stuff. Why is it that only one candidate hired the founder of Facebook to help him with his campaign. Why is that even though only 48% of the Gen Yers claimto be a Democrat, they will still vote for Obama.
46% of Gen Yers expect the next President to interact with them online. Isn’t amazing that other candidates–in any election–still haven’t integrated online into their communications with these constituents

The ignorance is truly mind blowing. I actually had no idea that the Republican nominee was completely ignoring this demo by refusing to speak with them where they are most comfortable listening. And what a brilliant point you make about how Obama is not only courting his following on the internet, but plans to use it throughout his stay in the White House as a tool to connect with more Americans. His own version of the fireside chat in a sense. I actually find it rather arrogant that the Republicans refuse to listen to this demo. They are the future and ignoring them is a huge mistake.
