GOP Hub: Building a conservative alternative to Digg and Reddit for social bookmarking

I have been working as a co-founder and strategic director of GOPhub.com since the beginning of July and in that time we have witnessed the site blossom into a very promising outlet for GOP bloggers to share information, critique each other’s work and develop individual identities within the larger Republican web community. Born out of frustration with leading social bookmarking services Digg and Reddit, which are blatantly biased toward the Democratic Party and liberal causes, GOP Hub has been steadily establishing itself as an exciting new Politics 2.0 startup that has boundless potential for growth as the most contentious and web-centric election in US history approaches.

The Democratic Party has dominated cyberspace since it first became a relevant outlet for reaching potential voters and generating a buzz about issues and candidates, but recently an eConservative movement has taken shape that has the potential to revolutionize GOP politics permanently and grant the next generation of party leaders their first opportunity to show what they can do with the tools of their generation to build upon the successes of our parents, grow the GOP base and reign in younger, more techno-oriented voters. I have been fortunate to be able to establish myself as a leader of this movement at its earliest stage, and I believe strongly that the 2008 elections will be the first in which the GOP has a coordinated and efficient internet apparatus for growing and communicating with its base of supporters. I encourage everyone to consider GOPhub.com when seeking out news and information in the coming months before the primaries early next year, as other such sites will not offer GOP primary voters sufficient information to make an informed choice between the front-runners (however, they will tell you way more than anyone needs to know about Ron Paul). Join the revolution and help the “Rightroots” take back the web.
