2. How Obama Did It

The positive image of the president of the United States of America was created through the well handled social networking strategy such as online website during the period of his election campaign. And the social networking strategy was a very efficient way to show his positive image to public and it was better than any other methods because of its easy way to share information and communicate with many people on the website. Throughout the social networking site such as MyBO, The president Obama has heard people’s voice and has given his ideas to people too. So, many web users could catch his policy faster. In the campaign, it is well known that many people back the candidate, Hillary Clinton, but the president of U.S., Obama, has gotten more public supports than Hillary Clinton had through the online. As following the article, he has a strong relationship with this social networking site. Though many people want to be volunteers and help the Obama campaign, it is limited only small number of the registered Texans. In my opinion, it will be enormous value of advantages when many people can join more various programs. Therefore, he should make lots of active the social networking programs.

  1. I agree with this students blog. Social networking had a lot to do with why Obama won the presidency. By utillizing the internet to his benefit, he was able to reach out to a whole other section of people. McCain wasn't able to use social networking in the same manor as Obama was and that was his main weekness.

  2. I feel that Obama has so many young supporters because of his use of social networking sites. So many young people are online, and Obama's use of the internet made following his campaign so much easier. He was speaking their language, and as a result, he had many new supporters. His use of the internet made him seem younger, fresher, and more relatable.
