Today for example telling you who the presidential canidates are for 2008? When the whole election and voting process is a complete SHAM on the American public because of the ruling class in USA! If the election process was legitimate verifiable proof would be availiable such as record copy of your ballot when leaving the polls,public posting of how you voted accessable to all and outside public entities to recount or verify the counties results etc!

The problem isn't that people don't know this. It's that people don't care to take responsibility for fixing it so it's easier to ignore, minimize or dismiss you as a conspiracy theorist.

Actually when I hear any reports in the media I automatically doubt 70% of the information, then do my own research if it's important to me. The media clearly have their own agenda, which is controlling the simpletons who think their word is law.
So you say that I should get a receipt when I vote? hmmm.....I thought votes were all private, so why in hell would I want it posted on a public site. Sounds like you want a dictatorship. Think twice there ......

Are you seriously suggesting that the entire government is involved in some conspiracy which dictates the President, and in this case, Pres. Bush. If so you are nothing more than a conspiracy theorist who looks for ways the government is screwing America. I had an associate who worked for the State Deptartment who said the same sort of things, and he was escorted out of a meeting wearing a straight jacket, and was given a rubber gun in exchange for his SIG 9

I don't watch the news and I generally try to reword new stories how I feel about them. I only watch CNN or Fox News if I want a laugh. (The CNN newscast for the presidental race was hilarious. They were soooo careful, I died laughing.)
Public posting of who you voted for is not a good idea. It's private to protect people's opinions. Imagine if voting was public during the McCarthy era....

The media affects everything we know and do They are the gatekeeprs of all information. What they let in impacts our thoughts and opinions. A mere tone change can alter the publics perspective.

They don't have influence on me at all. I do research myself.
