issues like this?? Really? I cannot BELIEVE the lame defenses of CENSORSHIP by the Corporate Media on this forum.

You must KNOW that this is about to become a huge deal. And that it is going to reflect very badly on your candidate? It's already causing outrage and the story just came out.

I live in a Democracy.

Censorship kills Democracy.

This is going to harm your candidate because no matter what excuses are made, people are already forming their OWN opinions.

Even her supporters who actually do care about our rights, are beginning to have doubts now, as right or wrong, people assume this is being done on her behalf.

She needs to step forward now, the way Bernie did for her and protected her, and make it known she does not approve of this at all.

I know she will be asked to do so.

All this does is remind people that it was Bill Clinton who it possible for a few Corporations to buy what belongs to the people.

Think about that before you go defending this censorship.
