The Facebook Election

Astonishing! Your article about the millennial generation's interest in politics never mentioned Ron Paul. Our son, a quiet computer expert, became so enthusiastic about Ron Paul's message that he distributed literature on the street. Ron Paul set records for money raised in one day through the internet, and last I knew, he was still in the race, yet you'd never know it from the news media, which has totally ignored him. You didn't ask millennials about Ron Paul- your poll is inaccurate!

From my experience with facebook it is about posting pictures and partying. I don't see anything serious going on.

Respond with your own comments here. you say 27% of Obama supporters will switch to McCain if Clinton wins. How many Clinton supporters will switch to McCain if Obama win? I'm one of them thank you. We have to put the best in the White House and that would be Clinton or McCain.

I'm confused. The "Millennials" say they, "... need a President with morals and an open mind to inspire us." (p. 117). Yet on page 116 they rate Bill Clinton as their 2nd most favorable candidate behind Obama? Will someone please explain that logic to me?

The Facebook Election... and no mention of Ron Paul? I'm sorry Mr. Cannon, but either you haven't done your research, or you are just biased. Either way, it was a poorly written article. Contrary to what this article implies, Ron Paul is popular for many reasons, one of which is that he is the only candidate who truly opposes the war because he is the only candidate who voted against it.

its nice to see that my generation will be remembered for more than hanna montana. politics are important. i am going to vote and all my friends are too.

HOW REFRESHING TO SEE THAT OUR YOUNGER GENERATION IS TAKING SO MUCH INTEREST IN THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY. I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT FACEBOOK AND SUCH BUT IF IT'S POSITIVE, THEN THAT'S GOOD FOR ME. THANKS, JOE.
