We communicate using modern tools because we have found that the most effective way to communicate. Natch. We need those younger than us to step up to the plate and assume a role of leadership. They need to talk about why they're Republicans and how they communicate effectively with each other. To be honest, they need to teach us. You and me who will then teach the rest of the crew. For example, the primary form of communication for high schoolers is text messaging. Makes sense right? They don't have or need a BlackBerry because everyone they need to communicate with has a cell phone. In China, I hear they don't even cell voice cell phone plans and everyone has naked SMS. That, to me, is rad and is where this whole mobile world is going. Check out <a href="http://realworldrepublicans.com" rel="nofollow">RealWorldRepublicans.com</a> later today.

I'm 29, I have a blog, I'm on LinkedIn and Twitter, but there are others I know in there early 20s, active in campaigns that don't know what those things are or how to use them.
