Q: Comment: Whether I think a "political campaign should be carried out by 140 character tweets" or whether you do is irrelevant.  HIs Tweets worked.  He is the President-elect. 

 He didn't want to stay out the media; he wanted Free media; and he got it.

The Carnegie Mellon analysis is irrelevant to his results.  The US Army had to 'dumb down' its training to the 8th grade reading level when we went All Volunteer army in the 1980's.  And IQs have been steadily dropping since.  

Who do you think Motor Voter and other 'increase the number of voters' programs  were registering to vote?  Rhodes' Scholars and PhD Candidates?   Nope.  A lot of people who were either too disinterested or too ignorant to bother makes up that kind of registration.

A: Non-threat

Q: Comment: Your view is a very naïve one. 
There are certainly Chinese in Canada that support the Chinese Gov't.
There are certainly Chinese in Canada stealing our technology for their Gov't -Nortel was one example where National Defence which is relocating to the former Nortel HQ in Ottawa, found many bugs planted by the Chinese as they renovated. You might also take note of our own Gov't publicly acknowledging Chinese cyber attacks on our Gov't institutions.
China, and their agents, are not to be trusted.

A:
Non-threat
