I'm not sure whether the campaign is heavily courting its myspace members and others that may be interested but if they're not , i think they should think about going all out in turning this group into voters and i have some ideas on how to proceed..(I would expect that the campaign are already doing everything that i'm ready to suggest)
First of all , i checked the Obama myspace page and clicked on many members that posted comments on the page and too many of those members doesn't have Barack as a top friend on their list and i'm not sure whether the camapaign is reaching out to every single person that post a positive comment on the Obama myspace site.
Anyway , here's what HAS to be done.
1)As soon as a Myspace member post a "positive" comment on the Barack Obama website , a campaign official who monitors the page should quickly reach out to the poster by email or post a message on the poster's page as soon as possible.
2)The campaign official should make it clear to the poster that he/she's a professional employee working for the (official) Obama campaign and would like to be friend and have a discussion on how he/she could help Barack get elected.
3)If the person is interested , the Obama official should (please) ask this member to add Barack on top of his friend's list...Maybe not number one , but somewhere that is visible so that the member's friends would easily spot the Obama avator/picture which could prompt others to be curious about the member's new top friend.
4)The Obama official should ask the interested member whether he/she could spread the word about Barack's presidential bid and lobby other members in his friend's list to join the Barack's network of friends and to also add Obama into their top friend's list.
The official could promise the interested member a free bumper sticker/shirt or some other cheap materials IF the member can recruit some of his friends that on his top friend's list.
5)The official should ask the interested poster whether he/she's 17 or 18..If yes , the campaign should then ask the poster whether he/she 's registered to vote.
If the poster is not registered , the official could direct the poster to the website where you could easily register online..The official should beg the poster to register and assist the poster on any question needed to fill out the application online.
6)Official should ask poster to send in email about Obama to everyone that's on his/her (main) email list.
7)Official should ask poster to please recruit mom or dad and spread the word about Barack....Parents are easily influenced by their kids and they may be flattered that their son or daughter are lobbying them into voting for their favorite candidate....I find it hard to believe some parents would reject such a lobby.
8) which is the last one , the official should send weekly email to the poster to keep him/her up to date about the campaign and other stuff.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK??...WE COULD EVEN HELP OUT COURT THOSE FOLKS AND DO EVERYTHING THAT I STATED ON MY LIST?
