Let the Negative Presidential Ad Campaigns Begin

With his recent victory in the Republican presidential debate (at least according to public opinion polls), it looks like Ron Paul will be the first target of negative public relations and ad campaigns from his opponents and more.  The next presidential election may still be months and months away, but it's never to early for cut-throat propaganda when it comes to politics.Ron%20Paul.jpg

Mike Whitney at Atlantic Free Press published an interesting article that delves into how the media will destroy Ron Paul in the same way it has brought many other presidential hopefuls' campaigns to an end.  Do you think the media plays too large a role in politics?  Do ad campaigns affect your vote?

The media has played a major roll in politics in the past. However, times are changing. As the social web permeates deeper and deeper into mainstream culture, the establishment will find it's influence diminished, and later dwarfed by the power of people.

The social web empowers people to decide what is relevant, what is true, and what is good. Think how much stronger and larger it is than in 2004. Now we have, youtube, digg, reddit, facebook; and they all gain more users every day. We still have over a year until the next election. How much stronger will it be by then?

Jeremy, that is a great point. Already, Ron Paul is very popular online. It will be very interesting to see how big of a role the internet plays in the next election!
