So this is what we get? The M$M just has its way with our candidates.
Forcing out the ones THEY don't want...screw the American people! What crap, I'm surprised the M$M doesn't run Britney Spears or The Duff twins! What a fucking circus.
when msnbc pulls the plug on democratic process.:sarcasm: If the media has no sense of democratic process during elections; my guess it would have to come from the candidates themselves; unless they're too busy pandering to each other to care. Just one time I would like to see one of three remaining candidates take a stand against media moguls who think they can control who debates and who doesn't. If they would have locked out Clinton or Obama all hell would break loose. Nothing has changed. Different faces-same politicians. The media is a lost cause. :wtf:
23. It seems like Election Reform is going to have to include
Media Reform.
And the notion that because a Presidential candidate's name has a D after it - does that mean the candidate is going to encourage democracy or just waltz along merrily waiting for the rd carpet to be unfolded by the corporate sponsors?
8. Yep, and with the other candidates not protesting at all.
They will be pushing Edwards offstage soon and he'll be sorry he didn't stand up for Dennis's right to be in the debate.
I don't know where the talking heads are going next because they don't seem too crazy about any of the GOP guys but I guess someone will tell them which one to pimp for and they'll do it.
21. On the plus side - Hillary and Obama are minorities and Edwards
owes nothing to the corporate paymasters. If we can elect a woman or a black man OR a non-corporate (is there such a thing?) politician, it would be a great step in restoring America's image around the world.
Before the cameras, poker on TV was boring (if you didn't understand poker). After the cameras, the drama is a more obvious (and the audience still can't afford to sit at the table).
