As a Progressive I do worry about the election season starting so early. I think it will be one of the toughest races as candidates rise up, tumble, fall out, or rise up again.

This election will be more media driven than election we have every witnessed........

If we do not keep it agenda driven, focus on the future, focus on solving major problems.........then the media will trun it in a circus on personalities and flaws.

John Kennedy would not get elected in this election, not would it allow his brother Robert to work so close with him and become Attorney General afterwards......

i have no issue with a larger diverse crowd throwing their hat into the ring......but media focus should not be on who is up this week, who made a mistake (looking what they did to McCain supposely sleeping when he was reading at the State of the Union)

Lets lets candidates speak and find their voice and vision before we toss them away!!

Peace

How does a horse dying (barbaro) make headline news on every station, yet there are soldiers being killed in Iraq that don't even get their name in the paper?

When you consider photography had not been invented yet, I kind of wonder what those who drafted the Bill of Rights would have had to say if they realised that the 1st Ammendment would make the kind of antics the Paparazzi likes to pull permissible. I'd be inclined to think they would have worded it differently!
What do you think??...and does anything need ammending here?

It should have read!
Is the dinosaur extinct, or are they still with us ?
When I wrote of dinosaurs I DID NOT MEAN the animal kind,
but large corporations.
Chiefly the BBC.
I put forward the case for dissmantling the bbc and what a waste
of licence payers money.
Are people so dim witted that they think I am on about the animal
dinosaur ?

SO NOW YOU MIGHT VOTE FOR HILLARY? THINK ABOUT IT FIRST.......
This is what happens when you have dirt on the Clintons:
1 - James McDougal - Clinton's convicted Whitewater partner died of an apparent heart attack, while in solitary confinement. He was a key witness in Ken Starr's investigation.
2 - Mary Mahoney - A former White House intern was murdered July 1997 at a Starbucks Coffee Shop in Georgetown. The murder
happened just after she was to go public with her story of sexual
harassment in the White House.
3 - Vince Foster - Former white House councilor, and colleague of
Hillary Clinton at Little Rock's Rose Law firm. Died of a gunshot
wound to the head, ruled a suicide.
4 - Ron Brown - Secretary of Commerce and former DNC Chairman. Reported to have died by impact in a plane crash. A pathologist close to the investigation reported that there was a hole in the top of Brown's skull resembling a gunshot wound.
11 CLINTON bodygaurds now dead age 36 to 47. MORE

Why everytime a caucasian juvenile commits a crime their face rarely appears in the newspaper but when its an African American juvenile it ALWAYS appears all over the news and in the newspaper? Oh and have anyone noticed when a caucasian get killed they talk about it for like a month but when a African American get killed they talk about it for like 1 minute and move on to the next story? And dont try to say that it is not true because if you really watch the news thats EXACTLY how they do things around there! I'm pissed that things will never be fair!

but large corporations. One in particular that I am thinking of is the
BBC.
This started in the first half of the last century, in a very moderate
way.
This has now taken on global portions and has completely out done its usefullness.
Over four BILLION pounds is spent by the licence payer to support
this monstrosity.
With the coming of digital television we are to able to obtain many more television stations that are FREE.
As for 24 hr. news sky provides this free.
Channels three/four bbc are for a minatory audience bbc two is
hardly better which consist of mostly documentaries this again
appeals to a minatory.
Again with the radio service the commercial radio provides just as good or if not better service.
As adverts the bbc do this by promoting there oncoming
programmes
Need I say anything about bbc one.
Is the BBC really worth the money that the licence payer has
to fork out

I am not saying whether or not I believe that there was any conspiracy, but if there was what are your arguments? If there was not what are your arguments? Please give resources that back your point. Best answer goes to best argument. I am not bias on this topic, so best argument gets 10 points.

For years I've never understood why weathermen are needed for the six weeks following Punxsutawney Phil's forecast each groundhog day. Once we know Phil's forecast we can easily prepare for the next 6 weeks of weather.

No need for the weatherman to gobble up 7 or 8 minutes of valuable news time when the forecast is already determined. Does anyone know why all this air time, webpages & newspaper space is wasted on weather during this six weeks?

Not that I’ll be shedding any tears for Murdoch’s red top you understand, but I think in the greater scheme of things, his tacky tabloid is nowhere near as malevolent as the Daily Mail: hate and fear spurts from every page of this vile $hit rag, feverishly gripped in a permanent state of outrage about, well, everything.
