Did Any of the Candidates Bring Up Dennis Kucinich's Censoring by CNN?
I would think corporations controlling the Democratic process would be something they'd want to address. After all, this is supposed to be a Democracy controlled by "We the People" and not controlled by corporate America.

1. I am not watching the debates but I would doubt it. Kucinich was the only honest
nominee still in the race. He was right about the war, right about patriot act. The Democrats and the country deserve the kind of leaders they get

7. Even Someone Like Thom Hartman
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 09:45 PM by fascisthunter
a man I have had a lot of respect for, will digest what is fed to him by corporate America. He not only has decided to digest it, but to defend it as being a "reality" we must accept in hopes that when one of them is elected, they may turn out to be another FDR!

Yet the guy that is willing to stand for the things FDR has championed, Kucinch was running on and now is dismissed. He was willing to challenge those powers, and America will never even know who he was. Disgusting!

6. The big 3 candidates
are sticking up for Kucinich as much as Kucinich stuck up for Gravel.

I am getting sick of the Kucinich hypocrisy, he has over stayed his welcome.

8. Interesting how they eliminate Kucinich ... but PUSH Giuliani, who's doing worse.
Funny 'bout that. Funny. And only the hyenas laugh.

12. Corporate Owned... The GOP Sold Out Completely Long Ago
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 09:47 PM by fascisthunter
They were always the party that represented wealth, and the wealthy always owned and ran corporations. What is left of the Democratic Party is being censored, and the hypocrites in our party hate when we bring that reality to their attention. Interestingly, they seek out our threads and chime in, when they could just ignore it, but they can't... because they know.

They don't fight us as much as they fight themselves. You can see it in their shallow attacks and twisted spin.

15. They
didn't mention me being censored by CNN either. Dennis has only received slightly more votes than I have.

17. Don't
judge a book by its cover. It's hard to think up of a name, and jizza while it sounds dirty, in reality, in my family, is something else not dirty.

Besides, I'm a realist. And I proudly support Obama.

25. Exactly my point!
All people with little to no support who have no business being on stage wasting the legitimate candidates' time.

Maybe Kucinich and Ron Paul can have a debate between themselves, in which anyone who wants to ask a question has to wear a tinfoil hat.

26. I dont know what business you are in but you should try using...
advertising in your company so you can see how it helps your sales. After you see it happen in reality, think of the media and politics and ask yourself why certain candidates have certain percentages of support in polls. You will be amazed to find out that this race is all about national advertisement and that it is a controlled game. Until then, keep making posts that show your ignorance to what you are talking about, its fun for all of us that understand the system to watch and it gives us a laugh at your expense.
