Operation "Get the Media to cover McCain fairly"
I'm tired of reading all of the bullsh*t served up by the media about McCain. They give him every benefit of the doubt and don't seriously go after him on things as BLATANTLY FUCKING OBVIOUS as his sick, sick preacher man who says gays caused Katrina, etc. etc. Why do we hear Rev. Wright all the time 24/7? Because the media ownership want a Republican in the white house.

We've got to nip this in the bud early. This is war, folks. "My friends"--my ass!

Yes, we have Air America. Yes, we have Huffington Post, Atrios, Media Matters, etc. But we have got to take it to the streets. This means both in the affirmative for Obama and in the negative against McCain.

I'm open to YOUR SUGGESTIONS about how we can keep it real and do a person to person intimate discussion of all the lies and dangers of a McCain presidency while at the same time convincing people just why Obama is the perfect choice for America in the wake of the horrible national tragedy that was the CLusterfuck Bush presidency part 1 and 2.

WHAT SAY YOU?! It's only May...but we must start now. Hilllary is so over. Most everyone but her and Bill know and acknowledge it. Please give me your hints on how to do this.

P.S. This is still primary season so that is why I put it in this forum.

4. I'm trying to think of a way to catapult the propaganda (truth)
to the people. yes, you could start your own media empire...but that could take some time. I'm saying POWER TO THE PEOPLE! Youtube has changed how companies and organizations get their word out. Internet interactive pages change how we interact with candidates. There are ways to get past that vast wasteland of horrid TV. We've just gotta figure out how to do it.
