Edwards/Kucinich Supporters Unite!
Why do the best candidates get the least votes? Why did some candidates get to dominate the debates from the beginning, while others were ignored or given non-issue questions about UFOs? Why did moderators pick certain candidates over & over. Our political process is controlled by corporate financing. Obama reported raising a record $32 million. Millions are raised, millions are spent but the big corporate donors decide which candidates will survive-financially & which candidates won't have the money to get their message out.
These same corporations own the media & decide which candidates will be favored. Moderators aren't given direct orders, they just go by the latest polls. Poll numbers are driven by exposure. Exposure is bought through advertising- no corporate funding- no money for advertising amounts to lack of exposure leads to low poll numbers & being ignored in the debates. The more you are ignored the less you seem to have to offer, soon you find yourself without enough money or delegates to stay in the race.
If you are a Dodd or Richards or Kucinich or Edwards supporter your candidate was rail roaded. Make no mistake about. Some candidates corporate America has favored go to www.opensecrets.org for a complete list of corporate campaign contributions. And then ask yourself why, is it because America has been hijacked by privilege & special interest.
We can't let this happen every four years. The party bosses are all crying for party unity but we deserve competence & ideas. The foxes have taken over the hen house. We can line up like sheep come November on election night or we can say "Enough is Enough".
I know that after your candidate dropped out you wanted to crawl in a hole & forget about the whole thing until next time but we can't let the crooks win again.
Get your candidates message out & into the press- through blogs, letters to the editor, op-eds, keep those issues alive & in the national discussion so they can not be ignored or silenced. Never surrender go to www.votestrike.com & lets give the crooks a run for their money this election cycle!
