and I would almost say scarily profound--certainly a dark kind of profound. It's as if Sanders were speaking--and his numerous supporters were existing--inside a "black hole" or behind a curtain of "dark matter."
It's as if he and his supporters do not exist.
Weird, puzzling, thought-provoking. What we have, I think, is an epic battle between the corporate media and "the people" (by which I mean Sanders supporters, i.e., those giving him a huge lead in New Hampshire, a bellwether state in presidential politics). The corporate media wish to--and are acting to--choose our candidates. We are fighting back, and saying, no, WE choose the candidates--you assholes merely REPORT whom we choose as presidential candidates and as president.
Their silence is a kind of act of war against the people of this country. So many people turning to Sanders as their desired candidate, once they hear what he has to say and learn more about him, while the corporate media does everything they possibly can to deny his existence as not just a viable candidate but the LEADING candidate of the Democratic Party.
