Don't discount Facebook and Twitter. Palin uses Facebook to post her articles in large part so that her followers can share with their friends. Almost 75% of American adults have a Facebook page. I understand that most people want to keep their political views outside of Facebook but I share Palin's articles with my friend list with no editorial comment. I let her words speak for themselves.
She doesn't put out articles often enough to annoy anybody but if anybody wants to un-friend me because I share Palin articles, so be it. At least I will know who my real friends are. So far, nobody appears to have dropped me.
Yes, I agree those avenues are still very valuable. I suggested the others because they allow us to contact those outside our normal circles, too. See my post #43 for other ideas. We all have a great circle of influence, if we take the time to map it out. Great job, Sam, in keeping the issues in the front! Keep up the good work, FRiend!
