      Warren spent four hours taking selfies tonight in NYC. Is that a good use of a presidential candidate's time? I'm not even trying to be sarcastic, really just wondering what the cost-benefit calculation is

      The logic makes sense. Seeing someone in your social circle in a photo with a candidate is probably far more effective advertising than any robo-call or TV ad

          I went to the Tulsi's recent Los Angeles town hall there was about 4-500 people there. At the end they said they weren't going to do any selfies (she had a really long, busy day!) but she insisted on doing it. I know it makes a big difference to supporters it makes it special.pic.twitter.com/aIphS9nCCO

          When I saw her in May in Malibu it was a small gathering at the democrat club house. After the event was over I was able to walk up to her and talk briefly then ask her for a picture.pic.twitter.com/2MmznXnHDd

          really? If I saw my friend with a selfie of Clinton and I was anti-Clinton why would I donate to her campaign or become a super fan?

          I think it’s hugely effective and helps make her seem warm and likable — ie less like Hilary

          Yes and wet sidewalks cause rain. The people getting these selfies are committed and they will share them with those around them who are committed. Most marketing is a waste. Selfie hour is no exception.

          Would love to see the data behind that. I had picture of myself with Stein, I doubt that change the minds of any of my friends who saw the picture. Taken a selfie is more for yourself.
