I'm sure other politicians have blogs but it's just a matter of finding them.
ReplyDeleteThey can change politics by communicating effectively with other politicians and the people in this country and abroad. They could take into consideration the public's views of how citizens feel about certain issues and situations. This way, the world will know what's being said. Letters don't get much publicity, but blogs will surely be on the air for all to see and comment on. The communication situation with the Katrina incident was very poor. Maybe a lesson was learned.
I think they should get with the new technology and learn how to use it. Education never stops. Just because you're older doesn't mean you can't learn new things.
