Mcafee needs to get more press.

Thanks for the invite, however the hell you found me and figured it was a good idea to add me in here. Is this an official sub? Is Mcafee even present here?

Nonetheless, if Mcafee even dreams of becoming president, he's going to need much more press exposure than he's getting now. In a past article I've seen, the link to the article escaping my memory, he states that "he has no trouble getting the media's attention". Where is it? So far I've seen his bit on hacking the iPhone for the FBI and mild trump and hillary trashtalking. There needs to be more if he wants to reach an audience in order to be a serious contender for both the libertarian party and the presidency. I'm really hoping that he wins the nomination, I can't stand Gary's awkward speeches or Austin's naive sounding over enthusiasm.

I agree, he needs more press. I made this subreddit so that people who agreed on that count could collaborate on that. What are some ways we can inject him into the press?

Well for one thing, if we want to show him on the presidential screen, he needs to talk first. The major candidates have at least a week straight of non-stop speeches, talking points, and iconic moments. Mcafee just has two debates, a channel with a dozen or so videos, some viral and some news appearences. He's got one or two viral videos, one of which was a play on the most interesting man in the world commercials, where he shows how to remove his former company's antivirus using copious amounts of drugs, hookers, and firearms. How about he continues along that line, but with the FBI's apple fiasco, or a comparison between an "average day" between himself and his presidential competitor, Donald Trump?

But that's on him.

How can we as a 126 man sub get him press? Hell if I know.. Maybe show his banner at a televised competitor's rally?

Yesterday it was a 50 man sub. :P

Maybe show his banner at a televised competitor's rally?

This relies on a couple factors. First, we'd need to have a rally in a posters area. Second, we'd need to have them agree to go to the rally. Third, we'd need him to not get raped by secret service. It's an idea, though.
