How does one become a paid political poster on Yahoo?

Question

I keep seeing the accusation made, that someone is a paid poster here.

PLEASE let us know how to sign up. I write well!

Who pays more - liberal employers or conservative ones?

Why are so many of us doing this for free, when we can make some money from it?

HELP US PLEASE!!!

Answer 1

This time of year all of the paid positions in the state polticial parties are full. They do is as an adjunct to their job, not instead of it. You'll find lobbyists and the labor unions engaging in it as well. Not just here but on any political message boards and on blogs. They used to ride posse on Usenet, but since there's not a lot going on there they focus their attentions on where the people are.

Answer 2

tThe fact that you ask "who pays more" shows me that you are not right for the job. Paid political posters should have a viewpoint that comes from a point of honesty in what they believe in. A conservative person would never switch to stand up for a liberal platform just to get paid for the oposing side. So if you are going into it for the money do us all a favor and look for another job. If you want it for an honest job. Start reading all you can about what issues you want to stand behind and approach the parties that you agree with. if you are good at any job you will get raises as you get deeper involved good luck

I'd guess that kind of stuff does go on, but I think your Q was more tongue-in-cheek.

My rhetorical question would be: has ANYONE ever changed their political POV (let alone their vote) based on some impassioned argument they read on YA?

I doubt it.

If that's the case whoever would pay anyone to pepper these forums with some of the crap you read here is really wasting their money!

I read and write here in order to better understand how clear-thinking people feel about things, and also to try to be helpful with occasional obscure Q's that no one seems to want to answer.

The vast majority of Q's (especially in the Politics & Government section) are asinine. They attract asinine responses, deservedly so. That those who ask would believe they're accomplishing something is even more asinine. To pay for it would be moronic.

Note: moronic is the superlative of asinine!

Boy John admitted to me in e-mails, when I first called him out, that he was indeed a paid puppet. Afterwords he got nervous, dropped his fake 360 profile, changed his e-mail contact information to a bogus one and finally dropped it altogether.

He's been booted out of Yahoo Answers several times but, like cancer, usually reappears in another form.

One of the things admitted was his little army of tag alongs that instantly reply to booster his claims and/or instantly reply to try to discredit those who disagree. He usually has three of four IDs going. His IDs always vote for him for best answer, which is why he best answer ratio is so fantastically above average.

What's spooky about these creeps is that they actually stalk you now ... they follow you to other forums (totally unrelated to politics) where they post in response to you questions or answers negatively hoping to discourage or discredit you I suppose.

Last night Skerry stalked me into Cars And Transportation where I had asked a question about the beauty or ugliness of automobile designs.

These far right nutcases are creepy people indeed!

Answer 5

If your serious ask John Skerry off forum. He is with the Green Party and makes a few extra bucks with his multiple persona's.

Go big Red Go

Answer 6

i imagine all of us prefer to end the warfare. to easily pull out for the sake of doing so can be a mistake tho. The Iraqi human beings are not prepared adequate to guard themselves. Our pulling out might want to maintain American lives yet not those of Iraqi civilians. in spite of the actual undeniable reality that you look to have topics with this administration and President Bush, you need to ask your self in case you may were mushy adequate to enable the likes of Saddam kill 1000's of 1000's of "his personal human beings" and idly take a seat by employing in sturdy judgment of correct and incorrect. You call the warfare unlawful yet it develop into really a lot unanimously licensed. all of them had an same intelligence because the president. even if it develop into incorrect or correct intel, we went to warfare and now we'd want to end it for the sturdy of the Iraqi human beings and for the sturdy of our u . s . a .. we received't leave them putting with each and every of the terrorist businesses respiration down their necks waiting for us to leave as a fashion to overpower them and turn the country right into a terrorist state. i don't like warfare yet I do see that typically it would want to be mandatory to attain peace contained in the international. i recognize you received't believe me yet I had to a minimum of voice my opinion. I too want for an end to this warfare yet on condition that finishing it would not make issues worse.
