Blog #8: Pop Culture & Politics

For this week, try to find a representation of your candidate from outside the campaign, preferably one that is in pop culture and/or opinion-based. This could include your candidate as a character in a Saturday Night Live sketch, a representation of your candidate in a "Bad Lip Reading" sketch, an opinion piece (be it on television or written by a newspaper columnist) about your candidate or a satirical webpage or video.

How does this artifact describe your candidate? What does it say about your candidate? If you think of pop culture and satire as a caricature of your candidate, what features (be they physical or otherwise) are exaggerated? How does this artifact push back against the image the candidate seems to be wanting to create for him/herself (see your own blog #1 post .) Do you think this artifact effectively shapes/changes the image the candidate is trying to project?

If you have trouble writing enough about one artifact, you may choose two, just make sure you link to or embed these artifacts in your blog!

Your blog posts should be approx. 500 words. They should include links, images, multimedia, etc. More information is provided in an assignment sheet on Blackboard.
