Social Media—the new barometer of the times
I included in the circle of love…that being Obama’s inner circle of White House communications. That’s because I get daily updates via email from David Axelrod, White House Senior Advisor. How do I rate this first-hand news? I’m chalking it up to the letter of complaint I sent the President in July. Fed up with credit card company abuses and increases in health care costs, I had to have my say. So I emailed and snail-mailed my letter of complaint.

Fed up with credit card company abuses and increases in health care costs, I had to have my say. So I emailed and snail-mailed my letter of complaint.
Suddenly, the White House knew how to find me. And they did…via continuing email updates from Axelrod on the state of our nation plus a letter on White House stationary, real embossed White House stationery from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with a signature that looks every bit like President Obama’s.
Whether you’re aligned with Obama’s politics or not, you’ve got to admit that he’s the master of communications. The fact that he’d respond (okay, I’m fairly certain it was his staff) to my letter illustrates that he understands not just the power of the presidency, but the power of communicating.
He used Twitter, Facebook and YouTube to campaign in 2008. The proof is in the keyboard: he now occupies the White House and he’s recently issued his second Twitter message just prior to the Massachusetts election for Senator to replace Ted Kennedy (D).
More important than the Presidential Tweet, is the fact that the metrics used to predict that the GOP would win the vacated senate seat were the number of Facebook Fans and the number of Tweets on Twitter prior to and the day of voting. In the neck-and-neck election, Scott Brown ® won the U.S. Senate Seat by 51.9% of the vote compared to Martha Coackley (D) at 47.1%. –
