I noticed on the tea party site that they’re getting complaints from people because they don’t want to use facebook. That does not bode well for our cause. If conservatives refuse to get involved in social media we are in real trouble. You can’t eschew real time or near real time communication and hope to compete.

  Well said, Ron, and I couldn’t agree with you more about the need for conservatives to become more willing to use social media.
  
  However – my parents, who are in their late 70’s, and don’t even have a computer are planning to attend this thing, and will probably be bringing friends. If anyone is seriously using the fact that, “I don’t feel comfortable with Facebook,” for an excuse…well, they just really need help I’m not qualified to give.

    I certainly understand older people who don’t own a computer. However, emails to americanteaparty.com, presumably, originate from a computer. The backbone of the Democrat Party is younger and more in tune with new media. We have to figure out how to get more people on board. Right now we are at a huge disadvantage.

      You know what I wish we had? A place for conservatives to go online and learn about social networking, and blogging, and search engine optimization, and how to be more effective online. That would be AWESOME!!
      
      Oh, wait…

        Yeah, now we just need to go door to door and drag them in kicking and screaming.

Speak Your Mind

This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)

This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.

Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
