3. Why has Gravel been disallowed?

Geez, he has more passion than many of them and he doesn't give rehearsed answers like most of them do. Not fair.

5. Exactly.

You took the words out of my mouth.

As for why he is not there, one has to wonder.

ETA: do you think it has anything to do with MSM being owned by corporate America as opposed to the public?

6. I will sign the petition, however,

even if he gets re-invited it doesn't mean they will call on him. I think everyone has a right to be heard and that is one of the functions of debates to have several candidates to talk about their platform...

Am I wrong about that:shrug:

7. No, you're right.

That is the theoretical reason for having debates.

However, they seem to be used to quash dissenting opinions from the MSM.

Don't they?

The paper and the news channel? So, Clinton and Obama are going to be there now, but MSM is now disallowing Gravel. What a bunch of ^&(%(^#@@.
