Political Blogs
Recent studies have shown blogging activities tend to cluster around high profile entities and then spin off into smaller and more familiar local or regional e-communities. The questions is - how might this particular blog best contribute to a robust and significant political dialogue which brings about measurable change to the national political scene?

The above blog was entered by Bob - the question that potential guest bloggers "might" ask is - what advantage do I get participating in this blog? Numbers? Expressing my views? Finding like personalities? Addressing challenging thoughts?

Como la fuerza este blog contribuye a un blog politico robusto - demonstrando que tenemos creencia, preocupaciones de la vecindad, y miedos comunes. Somos verdad una comunidad global.

Who might we be talking to via the blog? If the message is the media - can those without the necessary resources "know" what's available? This is where neigborhood "door-to-door" canvassing comes into play - as pointed out so graphically by the Latinos for America training sessions since the first DFest in Massachusetts and beyond.

Hi Bob! Sorry got working and lost track of time.
We have definitely seen an increase in blogging activity when a high profile individual is online.
Personally, I like expressing my views and hearing similar viewpoints so I don't feel so alone in this crazy world.
