If "Media Matters" is to be an "Impartial Fact Checker" (even though we know they are working for "Hillary for President&quot then we should take that into consideration going forward. Particularly, those of us wanting OTHER Dem Candidates to be HEARD in Democratic Primary where "All Voices can be heard for the spectrum of Dems" (which is getting broader than before) ...and WHY would you be against it? It isDemocracy in Action! ..where different voices within a Party have a Right to be heard.

Anointing Hillary as the ONLY possibility, at this point, when she hasn't even Declared her Run...but the MSM is WITH IT and Democratic Operatives are lining up the money and Positioning Themselves into her Campaign and Both Parties and the MSCorporate Media are "On Board" for the Fun & Money it brings in....But, for this Democracy...It is Too Early. The People's Voice needs to be heard and NOT Manipulated...

I've always found you reasonable, even when I don't agree with you. ...but, I will speak my voice as a Democrat back at you!
