NEWS MEDIA SUCCEEDS IN BEING ALLOWED TO PICK WINNER OF 2008 ELECTION
THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS HAVE LOST THEIR RIGHT TO SELECT THEIR NOMINEE
Special Report by the Creative Youth News Team
January 15, 2008
As 18 year olds prepare to vote for the first time, they now learn that the Democratic Party has handed over the determination of its nominee to the mass media and stripped the Democratic voters of their right to choose their nominee.
Stunned voters want to know why the Democratic Party allows ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS and NPR to falsify information about the candidates to the point of causing voters to believe candidates running for President have dropped out of the race. MSNBC has a link directly to Hillary Clinton's website. ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS and NPR are all telling the voters of Michigan that nobody on the Michigan Presidential ballot besides Hillary Clinton is still running for President. This is a flat out lie. Two other candidates on the Michigan ballot, Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel, are still in the race. The news media's false information resulted in a low Democratic turnout in Michigan and substantial voter confusion, today.
In a decision that has only been paralelled by Bush v Gore in effect and loss of electin integrity, the Nevada Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling and allowed NBC to fix the Nevada caucuses by excluding Kucinich from tonight's debate in a seeming effort to convince Nevada voters he had dropped out of the race. He has not. Will voters learn NBC is misleading them?
The actions of the news media appears to amount to election tampering. More disturbing is the silence of the Democratic National Committee, headed by Howard Dean, and by the Nevada Democratic Party. This year, the Republican Party has shown more support for the voters than the Democratic Party. The Republican Party withdrew support for a debate that excluded Ron Paul.
In 2000, the Republican Party was seen as the Party that disregarded the interests of the voters. This year, the Republican Party has worked to overturn that image. The Democratic Party, sadly, is now seen as the corporate party that pushes aside the interests of the voters when those interests conflict with the interests of media corporations.
MSNBC is owned by General Electric, which makes large profits from continued war. All the candidates on the stage at tonight's MSNBC debate brought America the Iraq war and/or its continuation. All candidates on stage tonight have spoken in support of war with Iran. All Democratic peace candidates have been excluded. Peace is not in MSNBC's interests.
The saddest part for Nevada residents is that they will not learn that all persons on the stage of the MSNBC Democratic debate in Las Vegas are responsible for the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Repository, which threatens the life of every person living in Nevada and California. John Edwards voted to override Bill Clinton's veto of a temporary nuclear dump site. Then Edwards voted with Bush to make Yucca Mountain a permanent nuclear dump site. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama voted to fund the project. Scientists agree that Yucca Mountain is a disaster waiting to destroy the Southwest and possibly other regions as well. By excluding Dennis Kucinich, the only candidate to voted against Yucca Mountain and its funding, MSNBC has put in a fix for the toxic project.
Where will peace supporters turn in the general election? It probably won't be to the Democratic Party. It is yet to be seen where the peace vote will go now that the Democratic Party has done everything to throw the peace vote away.
Those voting for the first time may make a difference by disregarding the media and just voting for the candidate of their choice. In the general election, first time voters may want to look at primary debate exclusions and vote for candidates who got their nominations honestly and not through election tampering..

I'm so excited. Brandon and I have been planning our trip to Austin to visit and look at apartments. We need to set up a system where we'll be able to keep in close contact with Marta and show her the apartments, etc, that we find. We found a fairly cheap place to stay that rents you bicycles that you can use to get around. You have no idea how excited after living in this shithole for so long, how excited I am to go back, even for a series of days. Ahhhh.

Just got home from Publix. I quit. I can't handle it right now, and my foot isn't even better so I couldn't work anyway. Everything just decided to happen at the same time, and it's...whatever. Trying not to be a pessimist, Brandon started school today :]. I'm so happy for him, he's so excited. I know he'll do well. Kucinich was shut out of the New Hampshire debates (is anyone seeing a pattern here? First Iowa, then NH) but there was a rally outside where even supporters of OTHER Democratic candidates gathered and agreed that this is unfair treatment. When I was leaving Publix, I picked up my last paycheck. 16 dollars. I bought cheesecake for everyone and some junior mints for Brandon, and got myself a regular soda. I know I shouldn't and it's against my resolution, but I need it.
How is everyone doing? Having a good year?

Happy 2008, I suppose I'll try and write a journal entry for every day.
Brandon's birthday was yesterday. We had a good time. Also, we ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere in pitch black 40 degree weather right after watching 28 Weeks Later. That was fun :].

So
Dennis Kucinich won the Democrat side on IndependentPrimary.com
And Ron Paul won the Republican side.
I wish they would just kill off the rest of the candidates and band together to form DENNIS PAUL!
Damn them. Kucinich would like Ron Paul for a running mate, though. He's already said. I wish Mike Gravel was higher up in the rankings but atleast Ron Paul and Kucinich are up there.
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy politics.

This post won't be very long, just wanted to see how all of your Christmases were. I got some nifty stuff. My mom and I are also going out sometime in the next few months and she told me if I went with her to get her tattoo she'd pay for me to get one, so we're both getting tattoos and having lunch I think. :].

Merry Christmas Eve!
The foots still hurting and I have cramps but I DONT CARE CAUSE IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE! I'm so happy. I was worried that maybe Christmas would be a bit eh this year but I'm getting so excited. We're going to Brandon's grandparents/dad's house later on today and having a nice dinner and spending the night. Then we're coming back up here Christmas day around lunchtime and having Christmas dinner here. Brandon, Marta, and I went down to record a bit today, but we decided we're gonna wait until we get all the gear we need. Brandon starts school in a few weeks, hopefully I'll be working again by then. He's so excited. I think the three of us are planning a trip to Austin to scope out apartments and such for Spring Break.
Life is wonderful. I hope everyone has a magnificent holiday and stay safe and all that jazz :]
