Obama Campaign Says...

We can send a powerful message to the special interests that dominate the old politics if millions of people get registered to vote. Recent voter registration drives have registered more than 200,000 new Democrats in Pennsylvania, more than 165,000 new Democrats in North Carolina, and more than 150,000 new Democrats in Indiana. Those numbers just scratch the surface of what's possible.

_________________________________________________

1. Before you begin any Voter Registration, please read your state's legal guidelines.

2. Following local guidelines ensures we empower the greatest number of people possible in our Vote For Change effort.

What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

This is a great example of Obama's potential ability to change the game completely, rather than just perfecting the way it is played.

How do you reach that conclusion? Obama just doesn't want Hillary supporters making waves, that's all.

Hillary supporters were going to make waves whether Obama supporters were there or not. As it turned out, some (but not all) of her supporters showed themselves to be classless idiots with no respect for the process they were invited in to see or the public servants trying to do their jobs.
