The Clinton campaign has struggled to win support among young voters of every description, including traditional Democratic Party voters: women, African-Americans, people of Latinamerican or Hispanic origin, etc.
Meanwhile, her septuagenarian opponent Bernie Sanders has enjoyed remarkable support from voters young enough to be his grandchildren.
The AOL Email login-screen ad bought by her campaign is either an act of monumental cluelessness about how to reach those young voters, or (more likely), it's an indication that the campaign feels the need to double-down on the older voters who constitute the bulk of Hillary Clinton supporters.
Does no one at the Clinton campaign know that AOL's mail users are predominantly people who signed up back in the days of telephone modems and software on CDs? There are probably more people who voted for Clinton in New Hampshire than there are millennials using AOL for their email in the entire country.

Usenet still works.
I suggest: alt.bitter
I still have AOL.
Apparently they don’t realize at Hillary HQ’s all the AOL software is downloaded from the Web these days.
CDs are so yesteryear - just like her campaign, stuck in the 1990s.
Bwahahahahaha!
Well, I suppose all the octogenarians in Florida will now know Hillary.
AOL? Really?
LOL. Advertising on AOL to reach the kids. This is beyond parody. Does she have her MySpace page up yet? What about her Friendster page?
I guess next she’ll flood the Bulletin Boards................with SPAM....................
What a prodigy....
Hell, I didn’t even know they were still around!.......................
She’ll reach all the hepcats that way. 23 skidoo, baby!
What you did there............I SEE IT.........
Haven;t been on AOL in years, didn’t know they still lived.
Do they still have all that screen fruit salad? Opening it was like sticking your face in Carmen Miranda’s head gear.
“You’ve got mail!”
Just like her campaign, stuck in the 1990s.
and Sanders is stuck in the 1960s
Interesting article waiting to be done about the generational difference between the GOP Candidates and the Democrats “last gasp of the 1960s” Canidates
I understand her current predicament. She assumed enough votes would be there to cover her predetermined coronation. If the convention were held today she’d win easily. At the moment the popular vote is lagging. Itll be interesting to see if and how she can make of the vote deficit.
That’s the ticket. /s
I’m probably one of the only millenials on the planet who uses aol at all. And I’m sure as heck not voting for that bat.
Let’s hope AOL charges her big bucks for reaching their fifty million subscribers. (lying to a liar is just plan old fun... :-) )
Is AOL still in business?
AOL! Seriously?
Man, that woman is dense.
