pass the tissues, please.

What a loss of opportunity. People can be so dense, and the media should be ashamed of themselves.

This election process needs to be legitimized. Right now its a dog show with only the preferred handlers in the ring, and the judges on the take.

It makes me sad, but also angry, and it's the anger that keeps my determination going. That's why election reform is so important. It was the first forum I visited when I started lurking around this place. Watching the returns in '04, I had such great hope, then that live footage of the lying weasel and weaselettes sitting in one of the rooms of OUR White House, smiling smugly, brought a wave of dread, and the following morning the dread was confirmed.

I knew the results weren't right, and I knew there had to be a reason. And DU election reform, Greg Palast, RFK Jr., Fitrakis, Wasserman, McKinney, and many others have provided the answers.

If we want fine, honest, and legitimate candidates like Biden to lead the country, then we have to provide an honest and legitimate process, so they can succeed. It starts with campaign finance reform, free and equal air time for candidates, public funds for campaigns, etc. Then elections must be transparent. No more secret counting and black box voting. And every citizen must have the right to vote...no more voter disenfranchisement.

There is so much to be done...
