On Campus, Vampires Are Beating the Beats

This article was basically about how people are more interested in other things than politics. The author's purpose was to make point or notice that people, typically in college, are interested in books that are for example, vampires, then who care about literature than the Internet.

I personally would choose vampires over politics anytime because that's what interests me. It even was stated in the article that nobody really reads books on politics because we have the Internet. Also, the author is making the Internet sound bad because it kinda makes people focus on other things or attractions such a Twitter and Facebook. Partly why a lot of people do that because politics isn't the number one and upmost important thing to talk about. This is how communities thrive and friends stay connected, and that's important, too. If we all just focus and read books on politics, we all wouldn't have lives. The government gives us rules and what not,but it's not the main focus in life. America is a place for expressing any thoughts and being ourselves, so why are people getting mad because we are interested in other things? Everybody is different and have their own views. It's not like those books on politics are gone; it's right here. These people need to know that while we are going through the years, our interests change as well. So for the people who thinks people who read books like Twilight are forgetting what "real literature" is, let those people be because everybody has their own definition on what "real literature".
