1. Thank You for posting this! Dennis, Gravel and now Edwards.. K&R
:hug: It's sad! :kick:
"Media consolidation has blocked out almost all non-corporate voices
in the discussion of public policy issues. Edwards wants less corporate control
over everyday life and has specific programs in mind to move in that direction."

7. I have to admit, I was hoping for that!
Dennis is a true leader on the war,universal health care, etc... If I can't have Dennis, I'll vote for the closest candidate to my ideal- if I can...

I's very sad!:cry:

11. have you forgotten
Edwards and Clinton conspiring to get rid of Dennis and the "lesser" candidates?

He's going to be the next victim of his own scheme.

15. I wouldn't hold my breath
he appropriated a great deal of DK's platform, then did his best to marginalize DK by plotting with Clinton. There is an element of justice in what's happening to him.

I believe strongly in the old maxim "to thine own self be true." John Edwards is going nowhere as a candidate, because he isn't being true to himself. He reinvented himself
after 2004, and selling his new phony self isn't working. I liked him in 2004. He seemed as if he were speaking from his heart. In 2007, he seems like he's trying to sell
a product he isn't really comfortable with.

4. FUNNY THING
The repub puke doesn't understand exclusion, but he belongs to the presidents party, who hand picks all his audiences for everything. In fact he won't even allow protests to be seen from his motorcade.

GO DENNIS!

5. Lets email the corrupt media about this as we did about Chris Matthews
and his vicious, sexist and very very personal attacks against Hill.

8. K&R
this needs to be out there. For they are now doing it with Edwards. Next will be Obama, because the MSM has decided that it will be Clinton, as they have said all along. I hope that everyone votes their conscience and that they don't allow the media to bully them into voting the media's way.

10. How naive
How naive to think that the media, or more factual the owners of the media, don't "pick" who's to be president.

The game is fixed. It's been fixed for a long time. It's fixed to the point that the powers that be can commit their crimes in the open, spit in our faces, and fear nothing in the way if reprisal.

Get use to saying Pres. Clinton, or worse, if an attack occurs before the elections look for a Rethug to inherit the presidency and prepare yourself for the continued ever faster slide to hell.

23. I don't think anyone's being naive here-
What I see, is a "call" to let NBC understand a few things, which in my case, lets them if I decide to watch MSNBC's leading news show," Countdown".

A boycotting of NBC such as it is owned by General Electric and such as the debate was handled, then defended by their corporate attorney can be effective. I can turn the television off, and I have in this case. If you want to do a chicken little number, that's your choice, Gonnuts.

20. Still Don't Care about Democracy?
So when you see people who do you feel the need to flame bait? You have a serious problem and it isn't Kucinich or his support.

18. Thank You For Posting This
Taibi had it right. "Reporters" now fancy themselves as king makers and tell us whom they believe is viable, or they just constantly push reports about the "viable" candidates 24-7 :banghead:.

Recently, I decided not to renew my subscription to a so-called progressive online magazine due to their one sided reporting in favor of Clinton and dismissive, or non-existent, "reporting" about the other dem candidates and voting fraud. I am incredibly disappointed in them because they used to be one of the few outlets that were informative and the voice of reason to me. They have now joined the great echo chamber of the M$M that they claim to look down on. I guess it did not help that several of their staffers left them to work on Clinton's campaign. Their totally ignoring what is happening to Kucinich and Gravel prove to me that they are towing the line with the rest.

I believe that the Dems are going through their version of the 80/20 rule. They have been for the last two election cycles at the very least :dilemma:. Sad that we are being persuaded to vote for those who are the 20%ers because they are more "viable" in the eyes of the media. It's more convenient to lock out the 80%ers. Sad for us IMO.

24. MSM is responsible for the dumbing down of the masses
My son who's a college student sent me this video. I think it explains the reason behind Kucinich's lack of public support.

25. I'm encouraged by and grateful to.. the Republicans who had enough insight and spine to join protest
with the Kucinich supporters.

:applause: to them!

Just like Edwards being cut out of the media coverage, this is NOT a partisan issue... this is our DEMOCRACY at stake!

I grieve for my country.
