Social networking and the end of"leadership"

[undergroundpanther]

Could Social Networking Bring the End of Leadership?
Suppose that all the politicians, business czars and celebrities of today had had access to blogs and social networking tools when they were teenagers, and that all the archives of local newspaper articles and crime blotters from that time were electronically available today.

If they were, what would we discover about these people? Would their 1960s and 1970s teenage rants be so outrageous that they would never have achieved elected office because their opponents would have thrown these indiscreet and half-formed thoughts back in their face, and humiliated them in the public eye? Would we know just what Bush said and did during his drunken and drug-addled youthful binges? Would we know for sure how his lies and daddy's money kept him out of any real military service, and out of jail when he went AWOL from the cozy arrangement daddy made for him in the air force?

Long ago abusers of power and trust, the exploiters of this country were scared by all the unwashed masses and immigrants gathering in the streets after they slaved at the sweatshops all day, partying, talking on their stoops, having brawls, sex, forming -- gasp -- unions and rebellions and having divergent opinions from the oppressors who were the rich elite robber barons, among other things ...

These elitist, rich thugs who think they have a divine entitlement of domination -- they never change. They wanted to stop this uncontrolled fraternizing, information sharing, and socializing, so they passed loiter laws, to keep the poor and working people from gathering in the streets and talking to one another unsupervised.
