Fake Corporate Elections In 2010!!! Fake Corporate Elections In 2012!!!
How can anyone take elections here seriously?

Doesn't anyone see how CNN chooses the President. I mean they don't choose it, they are the instrument for choosing the president.

I have seen fake left of center democrats run lose take up tons of money and energy and not try to build an organization that will change the Reid-Pelosi Schumer wall street scum Bush enabling murderers. Jackson never tried to build an org, just ran and lost wasted energy. Same with Brown same with Howard Dean . ITs all fake.

Schumer got 73 million dollars to run last time. Now hes working with the new Hillary clone to avoid a Democratic primary.

THe fake corporate elections are the opposite of democracy. Elections by themselves were never democracy. they were just one characteristic if there was a really free press, civil society. etc. Now there is only bipartisan lies, and twitter in between until its time for the next war, then everyone will be allowed to concentrate. Our slogan should be Fake Corporate Election in 2010. Until we fix this system, elections will only be a further dissipation of energy. Witness how Blooomberg is buying up every single person who might be able to get on TV and speak out. IT is lighyears beyond Putin it is mental sewage, and the elections have become the band aid of slavery.

FAKE CORPORATE ELECTIONS IN 2012!!!

3. I'll finish: "The night they drove ol' Dixie down."
And in fact, I've read a lot of whining posts here that sound like Joan Baez's chorus to that song, "Na na na, na na na na na..."

I see the same kind of fearmongering that Republicans used to terrify the nation. Only I see it being used by people on the left. You know the routine. Peak oil, economic collapse, Republican overlords, eternal depression, we'll be eating our own children for breakfast, to use toilet paper is treason, let's get guns and if the ammo runs out learn how to kill with our bare hands...

4. oh, so it's just paranoia to think our elections are rigged and pre-decided?
Kucinich (in 2004 and again in 2008) and Dean (in 2004) were NOT jeered, mocked, minimized, ridiculed, ignored? Obama and Clinton were NOT hyped 24/7? Even when Edwards came in 2nd in Iowa he WAS even slightly mentioned, and Clinton, who came in 3rd was NOT?

whatever.

5. I'm just pointing that you're trying to terrorize people.
Just like the Republicans. And yes, that's a wonderful technique to use when you don't have any genuine belief in your cause or any concern for the masses you're trying to stampede. Which is not to say you don't...but...well, I just get tired of noise machines, whether from the left or right or in stereo.

6. Or when Wes Clark did better than Edwards in 2004
in five of the nine primaries in which they both competed (before Clark dropped out), but he was totally and completely ignored. Even when he beat Dean in fundraising for the last quarter.

7. People choosing not to vote for fringe candidates like Kucinich for POTUS indicates what exactly?

I know its hard for the Kucinichites to grasp but you don't need vote fraud to stop a guy like that.
