Week 7 Aha

My Aha came from reading about the use of the internet and social media during the last few presidential campaigns. Although some people are probably surprised by how much the candidates use technology, I’m surprised by how little it was used in the 2000 and 2004 elections. I feel like the American public was already well on its way into the digital age, particularly by the 2004 election, and Howard Dean was the only one using the internet (he even admits the success came by accident). Perhaps the potential leaders of our country could have been more in tune with the way of the future.
