An Open Invitation to ALL 2008 Presidential Candidates

March 13th 2007

I want to extend an open invitation to all of the candidates running for President in 2008 that they are welcome to come on Managing the Gray to discuss their new media tactics with me.

I just watched what Senator Edwards did on Twitter and I’m still smiling from it. I was happy to see so many candidates announce their running via YouTube and such, but what’s next. Where do you take the campaign from here? How do you FULLY leverage the conversation and embrace the community? That’s what I want to talk about.

I don’t want to talk politics. I’ll talk to Republicans, Democrats or Independents. I want to talk new media campaign strategies and I want to talk about it on my podcast.

Any takers? The offer stands until until election day.

Whose campaign manager will allow it to happen? That’s what I’m most interested in. I sure hope at least one of them does!

    Let’s hope that he, or some other candidates, will accept our offers.

    I saw this exchange on Twitter and thought it was amazing. That quick of a response…I just hope 1) it’s really Sen. Edwards and 2) he keeps it up.

    And C.C., you had some great ideas for Twitter on your blog the other day. Good stuff.

    Are you interested in off the radar, grass roots type candidates. I’m trying to see how much web traffic I can drive to a site via an “everyman” type message, web seo techniques, viral marketing, etc. to see if I can start a little prairie fire.
