McCain's lack of internet literacy

I read an interview with John McCain in the New York Times and was shocked to learn about his lack of internet use. In the interview he stated that we relied on his wife and aids to get him on-line, but that he was going to learn. He also said that he didn’t use or have a need for email.

Certainly these things are not requirements for the office of President of the United States, I would expect however that anyone in the sort of positions he is in would have moved into the internet world. Not being there means that he literally can’t understand what makes anyone less than 25 years old tic, and in fact probably the majority of Americans.

With the magnitude of the changes that the internet is making on world, we can not afford to have a President that isn’t even a player.
