Additionally, Millenials increased usage of technology only strengthens the necessity of social media platforms for politicians. How do various politicians use twitter to promote their popularity and disperse messages? Moreover, what specific rhetorical strategies help craft a successful tweet? Is it a plethora of hashtags? Is it achieved by using Political nicknames? Does the lenght of a tweet matter? We hope to answer such questions, however niche.
