America must begin to stand up for her democracy. We cannot allow anyone to further take our Democracy from us, be it the Clintons’, the Bush’s or anyone else. In the current delegate controversy, Camp Clinton must follow the Rules like everyone else and not be allowed to change the game in the middle. They know this. They cannot be allowed to Cheat the System for their own aggrandizement and selfish grasping of power. There must be a fair and equitable resolution to this matter.
As for Hillary’s superior foreign experience, Hillary did not think it important enough to read the National Intelligence Report and so she voted Yes on a War/Mistake that should have never been waged instead of having the intelligence and Judgment to say No, as other Senators did, and stated at the time, that we must not invade Iraq who did not bomb us on 911, but instead finish the job in Afghanistan. This makes her qualifyingly ineligible for the top job as commander-in-chief. Just because she surrounds herself with a bunch of generals does not make her qualified. A Photo-op does not eras her Iraq vote or exonerate it. Camp Clinton loves to stage phony events for the perception to make us think something that is not, is -- Masters of Spin & Hype and Delusion, often busing people in to their events to make the crowd look bigger than it is!
Then there is the current Camp Clinton Mantra, that may be the American public are having second thoughts about Barack Obama, beginning to doubt him because he did not win in Ohio. That is such spin. They won Ohio because they slandered him and made people doubt that he is a true Christian and some secret closet Muslim instead. They duped him on Naftagate, when they were the initial culprits, somehow Rezko's trial was pushed up to conincide with the primaries and the insinuation that Obama was a criminal too, just waitin to go down with Rezko. That is why people doubted him unfairly, because of old-time party politics, instituted by a "do anything and say anything mentality", no matter the cost to the person and the party.
Those of us who care for our Democracy for the vetting of truth and for fair and accurate reporting must begin to call the main stream media to task. We can exercise our rights and our united power by calling CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, etc. and ask them to begin to Vet Hillary Clinton and ask the important questions they should be asking her, like why she has not returned the money back to IPA, a company accused of sexually harrasing women? Why have they not further discussed Camp Clinton's initial call to Canada in the Naftagate controversy? Why do they continually bring up negative stories on Obama and soft question of her -- like the press is bought and paid for, yet again! It is an illusion that the press has been hard on her and soft on Obama. That is a traditional Camp Clinton spin and we all know they are the Masters of Spin (that means in essence they do not speak the truth).
Brotherhood (1937) - 552: Do you wish to be courageous? Then prove your courage in battling for Brotherhood. Assurances alone will not create courage, nor will praises affirm achievement. No preparations can be a guarantee of success. Courage is tested by unexpected obstacles. I have already spoken about courage; if I repeat it, it means that this quality is especially needed on the path to Brotherhood
If the media is obligated to apologize to anybody, it's the American people. Senator Obama is quite capable of un-spinning Camp Clinton's rhetoric, but the general public relies on the mainstream media to deliver unbiased, comprehensive commentary on matters political, and from the very start of this election season it has done exactly the opposite. While I agree that media is playing into the hands of the Clinton spin doctors, I urge everyone to harken back to the beginning and recall the immediate, biased, and unfair message sent by media regarding the many qualified candidates who were here at the start, on both sides of the isle. From the first so called 'debate', the MSM invalidated some of the country's best hopes by un-inviting them to participate, sending the message to America that they didn't even matter! Corporate Media used this tactic several times, and the times when the 'invalid' candidates did get in to the debates, they were ignored, and belittled. This sort of obvious meddeling, and subsiquent brainwashing of the sheeple of this country has continued, unabated, throughout the primary elections and caucuses, and, as far as this writer is concerned, completely made a circus of the entire election process. Because of the MSM's unabashed and uncontested(where was the FCC) controlling of this election, we are left with few, lousy choices for commander in chief. Mainstream Media owes Obama an apology, but it owes the American People an entire election!The media was granted it's unfettered freedom of access because it was intended to be the watchdog of the masses against government and corporate America. Now that the corporate fascists own the media, and the government for that matter, it has used that trusted freedom against the very people who it was intended to protect. The wolf is now guarding the sheep! Apology? It has gone way beyond any apology. Media has poisoned democracy, and the only antidote is truth. I, personally don't believe the media has the humility, decency or courage necessary to make an apology of that magnitude, and then tell America the truth. What's the old saying, "Never bit the hand that feeds."?

You are right. But, I then go on to ask you, have you contacted the MSM and complained about this situation. Have you contacted the FCC and told them of your complaints? I do contact the media. I will now contact the FCC, thanks to you. We must urge, all, to put our united voices together and use them by contacting the media and FCC to do their jobs. Thank you.
