Barack Obama 's Campaign For Gaining Voter Support

6. To Hold Your District: Study Human Nature and Act According’- Plunkitt talks about books being a hindrance and the only way to last is to know everyone in your district. He talks about looking after the people, know what they are interested in and help them with what they want. Help the people and they will help you on election day.

From the perspective of a candidate, the main goal of a political campaign is to win votes. Politicians use campaign propaganda to help achieve that goal. There are six primary strategies used in campaign propaganda: stacking the deck; testimonials/endorsements; plain folks; negative ads; glittering generalities; and guilt by association/coat-tailing. A campaign is measured by its effectiveness, whether it is informative, and if it is ethical.

Show the community that we are involved in it in a very meaningful way. This was the strategy that Adam chose because it shows that he truly cares about the community and not just doing these nice activities to appear appealing to the community. The important thing about this is that it obviously needs to have a positive outcome. The first thing that we desired this approach to do was to gain the support of the community leaders. These community leaders include natural leaders within the community, Union Leaders, and politically active citizens. One example of these community leaders was Lisa Boggs. She is a Civic Association Leader and is on the Ward Committee. This was important because it helped us gain the support of republicans who have not voted democrat in a very long time. While being meaningfully involved in the community and gaining the trust of the community leaders Adam did not ask for an endorsement until the very end. He did this on purpose because he believed that you have to show you are willing to help them before they will be ready to help you. In addition to showing his meaningful involvement in the community when we went canvassing Adam insisted that we leave a personal note on the literature that we left to show that we truly cared about talking with them. In addition to showing how much we truly cared about the community and gaining the trust of the community leaders, we also relied on Mike Stinziano and Dan Stewart to help gain the trust of the voters in our district. Democrats in the district know both of these men and trust them both. They helped our campaign immensely and this is obvious through Dan Stewart helped Adam get the support of the Somalian Voters. We won ninety percent of the Somalian vote. When it came time to start canvassing Adam decided he wanted us to start in The Westgate Neighborhood, specifically Ward 32 and work our way outwards. He believed this because this

The uproar of who should be the next President of the United States came in full swing April 2014. While the Republican Party jumped to an early start by making trips to the early voting states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina, the Democratic Party lingered on the sidelines. The Republican Party started with seventeen candidates, yet the Democratic Party had only three. However, after the Iowa Caucus, one of the Democratic candidates dropped, leaving only two candidates remaining. Those two candidates are Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. As the race progressed sixteen of the Republican Party candidates dropped, leaving only Donald Trump. With estimated polls, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump would be the two candidates in the 2016 presidential election. Clinton has over thirty-five years of political experience, yet Trump has only business experience, so the decision of who should run the country should be chosen carefully. Although the Republican Party believes Donald Trump should be the next President of the United States, the Democratic Party nominated Hillary Clinton as the best candidate because she has the most accurate solutions for solving some of the main issues in the United States, such as gun control, immigration, and education.

One of the most important orders of business in this campaign has to do with finding constructive ways

Leveraging partner channels will allow you to reach a broader audience of like-minded advocates. Effective tactics for this outreach would be either email blasts or cross post content on partner org websites. If need be, we’re happy to provide more specific examples of how to proceed with this approach.

Motivating apathetic voters in Texas is a continual battle for even the incumbents in Texas Government. According to Stephen Young of The Dallas Observer, Texas came in 49th out of 50 in terms of voter turnout in the 2016 Presidential Election. Only 51.6% of the eligible voting populace bothered to actually vote, and only 21.5% voted in the state’s primary. One of the major problems for voters in Texas is that the state does not allow for same day voter registration. Because this is state law, there is no way to overcome this difficulty. Instead efforts must be focused on getting the voting population that will vote to vote for me. While it is noble to pursue the apathetic voters, it is a losing strategy for a challenger. I lack the name recognition to motivate apathetic voters and I do not have a platform that offers anything but more of the same for the voting populace in my district.

We have had many presidents throughout the time span of the United States. Some good, some bad it takes a lot to be a good president. It takes passion, dedication, and you have to be able to sway the people in your direction. Very few have accomplished this task.

We have a very unprecedented election in 2016 that will redesign how to run a campaign and get elected. The Republican nominee Donald John Trump is an American business made that has been successful in his business and a known as a smart business man. The Democratic nominee Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton is a career politician being the sixty seventh United States

During the lifetime of any given politician, especially during campaigning season and one’s own presidency it is important to identify with the audience. All of America is looking to one person to solve all of their problems, and they don 't want to look to someone who is nothing like them. Americans aren 't as naive as some politicians may believe them to be, in fact they are intensely analyzing their public leaders to determine their visibility, likability, and sensibility(symbolic capitol.) This symbolic capitol that people are judging their politicians on comes from there own self perceptions of identification. In todays emerging view it is important to establish candidate-centered identification. There are many ways in which a political candidate can present themselves as relatable; however, the easiest way to accomplish this is through language. “I”, “we”, and “you” are the most important pronouns in any politicians speeches, writings, and conversations. As much as people love hearing about any given candidates political resume, they want to know how they will be able to work with and help them. If everything is “I” driven, there isn 't much for an average American citizen to relate to. They may not have served time in the military, been elected Governor of Alabama, or even served as Secretary of State. Most political resumes look nothing like that of the average citizen; therefore, politicians need to present themselves as having or knowing of the general

“Thank you,” Governor Birch said, holding up a hand to temper the applause. “There is much work to be done. We have laid the groundwork for a successful run. If the election was held today, I am confident that we would win a strong majority of the popular vote. In states across this nation, we have asked voters to vote present when offered the choice between the same old brand of Democrat and Republican candidates. In those states, the present vote has run as high as 75%. And, in those elections where The Movement has endorsed a candidate, our people are winning by huge margins. But we must not rest until we have captured the heart and mind of every American. Our victory must be absolute. If we do not cauterize every progressive impulse in America, the wound will continue to seep and fester on the body politic. In every corner of America, we have

There is a total of 16 candidates in the Republican party. That means that each of them has a 1/16 chance of becoming the Republican representative. Due to the fact that there are 16 candidates, the likeliness to win the Republican primary election for each of them is small. In the Democratic

Years later, the 2016 presidential election has caught my attention. It is the first election I was able to vote in. I feel newly empowered as an individual and a member of my generation. Instead of my dad taking me to a march, this time I took my dad to a rally in support of Senator Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign. It was inspiring to see so many young people so excited and determined to change the country in which they will grow up by voting for the senator. My head turns from left to right of the packed Coliseum Sports Arena as I am forced to cover my ears amid 30,000 deafening chants of “Bernie! Bernie!
