4. Look at DU- Half of the threads are about Petraeus and whatever the corporate media leads with

This election, we did prove that social media has more influence than corporate media.

So now, we need to stop following them, and start ignoring them.

We need to lead from a position of power.

WE need to use social media to lead on issues that are important, and make the media follow us.

Stop playing into their hands.

Even the token 'fair' liberals on the corporate media all jumped on Obama after the first debate, like Romney's lies were AOK and Obama lost.

You don't win a debate by lying, and all they had to do was write up a list of debate points and explain that to people. But they are in the tank for the 1%ers too. Sorry, but they are never there when we need them and they are part of the manufacture consent.

We need to lead with the truth and real issues and make them follow.
