| Debates MUST return to The League Of Women Voters Control |
|
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 05:52 PM by Phred42
Dennis Kucinich has been "allowed" back into the Nevada Debate. This is a good thing. The Problem is that it took a law suit and a State Supreme Court intervention to make it happen.
Ron Paul had similar problems until some of his supporters ran Sean Hannity to ground.
By now it should be obvious to anyone paying, attention that the Main Stream Media is not responsible enough, have the integrity, or smart enough to handle major Presidential Debates for either Party.
It is time to give control of all of the Presidential debates back to the League Of Women Voters where they belong.
The sooner the better for Democracy

| 4. pappy Bush refused to participate in the debates under LOWV rules. |
|
He wanted the questions ahead of time and various other rule changes.
He wouldn't participate in a REAL debate.
That's when the debates shifted to corporate control.
