Answer:
Explanation:
Unlike a military conflict, the weapons used for a political conflict will not physically harm people but they can be just as damaging. In a political conflict, winning the public opinion is usually the objective. To do that, one can use propaganda such as news stories, TV commercials, mailers and pamphlets. The goal is to influence people and get them on one's side and against the opponent. Those stories and commercials do not even need to be true - they can be rumors like Obama was not born in the US. Effectiveness of those messages can be tested in focused group studies and evaluated afterwards by political polls.
