Unsubscribing from Obama's Campaign
Wednesday, November 19, 2008
When I first started to pay attention to the presidential campaign closely I decided that Barack Obama was my ideal candidate. So I signed up to be on his e-mail list throughout the campaign. While most of the e-mails I received wee just attempts to get donation money form me there were many that I looked forward to reading. The ones I cared about usually came a day after (or sometimes the same night) the most recent attacks on Obama and his character were made by rival candidates.
I forgot about the e-mails but today received one asking me to share my campaign experience. Personally that is what I have done here already so this e-mail is a waste of time for me. I decided to unsubscribe from the mailing list today, seeing that I no longer care about the e-mails in general. My candidate won and anything I want to know I can find out from ABC News or CNN at my leisure. When un-subscribing there was a box to leave a comment as to why I decided to do so. I don't think anybody ever reads that information, but I filled it out anyway. Here is what I said;
The time has come for a change in my e-mail box. Four months of successful e-mail campaigns has proven it worked, but it is time for me to take control of my inbox once again and cut the political propaganda!
