Google and Twitter to the Rescue!
Sunday, November 13, 2011
After the allegations of Herman Cain's sexual harassment, people started to view Cain in a new light.
Theres one thing that can truly hurt a presidential candidate when he or she is in the process of running, and that thing is scandal.
It is then when people really start questioning, "Is this guy the guy we really want running our country?"
But good news is, Herman Cain has found a way to fight these allegations head on. By using social media and a popular search engine as his aid. Cain is using keyword Google and Twitter search ads, such as: "Cain Sharon Bialek", which leads to an option of Cain's website CainTruth, which was a paid attempt to bi pass the scandal. The campaign had also bought a promoted Tweet when anybody searched "Herman Cain" on Twitter.
I believe that Cain has made a pretty smart attempt on continuing his campaign and trying to get away from these allegations.

I personally feel bad for Cai. I can't imagine all the pressure that must come media and fans. They seem to always try and find flaws about your and try to ruin your chances of ever trying to run for president. People always make mistakes in life or have nasty rumors spread about them but it seems people are always trying to bring us down. People need to move on from bad events and more on in life. Stop living on the past and look forward to the future.
Using social media to correct these accusations is very smart but I believe the damage has already been done here. Cain can create websites all he wants, but he's still been accused of sexual harassment by several women. His reputation has already been drastically skewed in the public eye and no amount of social media is going to make things go back to the way they were.
