Are we cowards to allow corporations, so-called polls, and the media to decide the presidential candidates?

Question

Cool that people are becoming more informed than ever before.

Answer 1

Yes we are...If I remember it clearly..it sayssomething like "WE THE PEOPLE"...Not we corporate america or we the media...Its WE THE PEOPLE...So lets remember that and stand up for what we believe and take back OUR country.

Make sure you all VOTE!!

Answer 2

The media and polls do not decide. They merely ask people who or what they are voting for. Corporations have mostly finacial influence, but this is pretty much a common thread in most elections.

Answer 3

I don't think coward is the right word...ignorant would be better, & Ignorant is not the same as stupid! Did we know, were we told what would happen with the electoral college, when that started? Did we realize how well they could be manipulated? When we learn, we are no longer ignorant. I am happy to say I am far less ignorant now!

Answer 4

Yes. It is a shame. People are talking about voting for Mrs Clinton and do not know why. She is in the media spot light so they just assume she is the best candidate.

Im not saying she is or isnt but that is the wrong reason

Answer 5

Hey, take a deep breath. Relax... OK good.
Now, repeat after me: "The media will tell me how to vote."
Good. Repeat it.... Good.
Now say,"I will not research candidates on the internet; I will vote as the media instructs."

Now, what was your question?

Answer 6

No. Not cowards. Only people without internet.

Answer 7

Yes, we are...but I think people are very slowly waking up and are preparing to fight back...what a great question, thanks for thinking outside the box...spread the word!
