\Media affecting the votes in 2008 Extra credit

I believe that media did affect the elections. Barrack Obama was seen more on myspace, facebook, TV, and even posters. When people 18-30 years old saw Obama’s name on places all over then it made them want to vote for them even though they didn’t know the issues. You get the young people to vote by being more like an advertisement then a president. So I do think that media did affect the voting for the president in the 2008 elections.
