Do-It-Yourself – This one is just a little show of appreciation for those that participate, share stories, vote on stories, visit blogs, and comment on stories submitted at social networking sites like propeller.com. And it's also a shout out to those who put up with all the stories I submit.
Perfect timing for this article. Last night at a face-to-face social gathering, I promoted the idea of propelling. We had been talking about the billions of dollars political candidates spend collectively on getting their messages communicated. Not only is blogging a healthy way to interact, but it is a grass-roots, cost-effective approach to participating intelligently in our democratic process. Thanks for posting this article!
I think you're right. If an actual candidate came into propeller and let people comment and ask questions and such, they would get votes.
You're right, they'd also lose votes I'm afraid. That's why a candidate will not come to propeller at this time. There is an uncertainty as to whether or not it would help the candidacy. Propeller pundents are divided much the same as the country finds itself divided. It's a lot easier and takes less courage to address a group of like minded individuals than to expose yourself to the world.

With this logic then, I guess if a candidate did "expose himself to the world" known as Propeller, one could conclude he/she is not afraid of anything or anyone - i.e. he/she has enough confidence to express truths without fear of being blocked or reported. Wow - I would vote for someone like that!! :-)
