he appeared to be getting some traction as a potential candidate.

THAT is what got me interested in me since I was not at all familiar with him.

They ARE losing control of the message. OWS presented a different message which resonated with the people so fast you have to conclude that a majority of the people KNOW something is terribly wrong, but didn't know how to articulate it. OWS did that brilliantly and they became a target of the Corporate Security State, as one of your links says, even while they were in the planning stages. It is SPOOKY to think that citizens are being spied on, monitored, labeled 'potential terrorists' in a country that STILL claims to be a democracy.

Thank you for this excellent OP. I am reading the links which will take a while.
