The article did a great job of highlighting how successful the site has been- about how it was never meant to attract like-minded individuals. Why would people who agree with the President petition him, when you think about it? But being able to have public, intimate dialogue is a fantastic idea! I hope that this continues beyond this term, and is used by presidents from both major parties (or any other parties!) because it really seems pretty brilliant, and very counter to how American politics has been.
