Blogs and Political Scenario in US


As discussed in a previous article on political blogs, today blogs do play an important role in the politics. The major beneficiaries are the students who would feel rather encouraged by participating in direct conversation with the politicians through Blogs rather going for boring speech or T.V. telecast. Through the use of Blog the politicians can easily spread their ideas to a vast range of audience or supporters. Thus the concept of supporters’ blogs came into being where discussion about campaign can be done quite considerably. Even the peoples’ criticism can reach directly to the politicians, thus generating a much better impact.

It is a proven fact that Internet could be an effective way to organize and mobilize political supporters. Recent studies on US political scenario led us to the result that campaign through the help of Blogs can win the heart of million of supporters and can raise money to the extent of $50 million. In the recent Presidential election of the United States, Daily Kos’ have donated nearly $500,000 to Sen. John Kerry’s party. Bloggers are very much effective and helpful for the efforts of raising funds as well as for spreading messages. In similar effort to support Mr. Bush, bloggers have encouraged readers to support him and have also asked for donations sponsoring the Victory Wednesday, and about 140 bloggers from Blogs for Bush participated in it.

Thus it is seen that Blogs have gained much influence over the US political scenario. One more reason for this is that information spreads very fast through Internet and if the subject is interesting as that of politics, it is bound to attract more and more audience or masses.
