And, to be quite honest, the effort is sometimes appreciated. But for the most part, it makes many candidates come off as cringey and uncomfortable to watch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I understand that candidates need to grab as many votes as possible, especially when running for president, but I am sure most of us can agree that the tactics some use are tacky.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the most recent Democratic debate of 2019, we saw a somewhat good display of candidates trying to appeal to Latin voters. A prime example is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2019\/04\/09\/us\/beto-orourke-fast-facts\/index.html\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Beto O\u2019 Rourke<\/span><\/a>, former U.S. Representative from Texas, who broke out in pretty fluent Spanish in the middle of a response to a question from Savannah Guthrie. I\u2019m sure he gained more Latinxs votes than he started the debate with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A case where it didn\u2019t work out so well was when Hillary Rodham Clinton kept using the song <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fight Song<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Rachel Platten. Before she was even named the Democratic nominee, people were tired of the song and could care less about the subliminal message it had for her campaign or that Clinton was \u201cfluent\u201d in pop culture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are even cases where a campaign message doesn\u2019t come across as intended, such as in 2004 when Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs launched a \u201cVote or Die\u201d campaign\u2014which quickly led to a parody episode on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Park<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of Diddy killing hesitant voters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But this doesn\u2019t just happen with presidential campaigns. I remember back in 2014 there was a video of then-Florida Governor Rick Scott and then-Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett that was edited to imitate a GOP spinoff of TLC\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Say Yes to The Dress. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the people in the video said that \u201cRick Scott is a trusted brand,\u201d almost making it seem as if he was the Vera Wang of GOP candidates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Candidates need to look at their teams and see what they are lacking. Does their team resemble the community they are trying to operate in? Do they have people of color? Is there equal representation amongst the group? If not, then a workplace strategy needs to be put in place so that there is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Candidates should learn from their mistakes and be open to change. As a society, we are constantly becoming more diverse and our representatives need to adapt to us if they want our votes\u2014not the other way around.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since I can remember, when there is any type of national election, candidates go above and beyond to appeal to different voters such as Latinxs or 18-to-30-somethings\u2014who are notorious for rarely showing up.
