i know clinton has trouble with young voters. but, she's dipping into the barely legal area with "delete your account".
twelve year olds can't vote, hill. they're actually widely ridiculed online, too. oops? yeah.
this hip grandma thing is a dead end of possibly catastrophic proportions. that's not to say she shouldn't be trying to spin a few memes out, but it's going to work better if it's authentic.
that is, after all, the actual problem, right? she's widely seen as a big faker. hiring a staff of....is that the new scandal? clinton uses child labour for her twitter account?
but, that's just obviously fraudulent. all you're going to get out of kids from that is an awkward laugh and some eyeball rolling. i actually don't think there's anything particularly uncool about grandma memes. it would actually even be sort of pioneering. digital natives are a lot less cognizant of the technological divide than older people are; they don't really see the screen the same way. what i mean is that older people tend to look at the internet as some alternate reality that you have to move into, while digital natives just see it as an extension of reality. so, there is not real-life hillary and internet hillary. there's just hillary. that means that you want to use their tools, sure, but you want to look and sound your age, too - because they won't separate the digital from the physical the way that older people will. you are your twitter account.
if trump wasn't such a loud-mouthed buffoon, he'd have a natural advantage because he's actually writing the stuff himself. that's what the kids want, they just don't want what trump is saying.
she shouldn't delete her account. but, she might want to get more involved with it.
