Exactly. Fuck the media. The media ONLY shows you what it wants you to see. That is the purpose of media conglomeration. If you can change public opinion on just what the TV box tells you, then we are in a world of hurt. It shows a population void of seeking the truth, but will accept the TV boxes every word as god honest truth.

If any of the republicans win, I'd hope it would be John Hunstman.

I'm predicting Sanitarium's campaign will run out of steam once people find out how batshit and unelectable he is, even for American voters. The Republican establishment will put in play the runner up of the last primary, a strategy they've followed faithfully since Nixon. Anybody notice that pattern?
1976: Reagan loses nomination to Ford
1980: H W Bush loses nomination to Reagan
1988: Bob Dole loses nomination to H W Bush
1996: Bob Dole is the nominee
2000: W Bush is the nominee, the only anomaly here. He defeated McCain to gain the nomination.
2008: McCain defeats Romney for the nomination.
2012: ...and the nomination goes to...
If Sanitarium wins, Obama will have an easier time getting re-elected. If Romney wins, it'll be a tough call for voters, choosing between two lying, flip-flopping corporate sell-outs.

I want Sanitation to win, Perry to drop out, Sanitation will take all the evangelical conservatives, and lose miserably to Obama as the independents will not vote for a crazy fool like him. Or you can have Wall Street boy, Mitt.
Obama, lesser of two evils people, lesser of two evils.

I'm in the mindset of.... how about no evil, cause its just stupid if we all realize this and keep voting in evil, we expect change by doing the same thing over and over... sounds like insanity to me. We always vote for an R or D and get the same crap, just in different packaging.

I've learned never to make solid predictions based on the assumption that "surely the American voters won't be so stupid as to (re)elect that...".
I think it was PT Barnum that said nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public. Similar sentiments could be said of our electorate.

i fucking sick and tired voting the lesser of two evils. I was voting Democrat before on the sole reason of getting work. Democrats in office = more union work. Since Obama has been in office I have not seen a change in my work since the Bush days.
I do NOT wish to vote for right wing Obama.
Regardless of how i vote, Obama will have another term...he has shown that he will play ball with the corporate military complex.
Why would they screw up a proven future blank check?

Obama either lied to us or the president really has no control. He just signed that shit National Defense Authorization Act. Read some of it. Has crazy things in it. The law forces anyone that does business with Bank Markazi to choose between ending that business and with being blocked from the U.S. economy. So if you do business with Iran, you can't do business with the US, sounds like anti-free market, or to get big businesses in on an Iran war.
And this is Obama... not some neocon Bush, or Rumsfield.
So how can we in good concious vote for Obama, or the other neocon right winger they give us the option of voting for.
Bush hit us with a 10 pound sledge, Obama chose the lighter 5 pound sledge, it does not hurt as bad, but they are still hitting us with a fucking hammer.

His name is not Romney and he's not a fucking mormon. After all the other republicanazis imploded he was the last nut left standing.
Wait until the jesus freaks find out he's catholic.
Evangelicals for the most part regard Roman Catholicism as another Christian sect nowadays. Even the most hardcore of them regard some Catholics (like Santorum) as Christians. They certainly do not regard Mormonism as another Christian sect, they regard it as another religion or even a cult.
