In reply to the discussion: Is it possible the media is manufacturing consent for a stolen election? [View all]stillwaiting
(3,795 posts)Even if they don't do it at all OR do it on a limited basis in a few locations, the potential is there to do so on a much larger scale if they need to, and they will do so if they need to. I do believe they have stolen at least a few elections over the past decade (and there is a chance they have stolen more than a few).
We MUST fix our election system before we will ever have a fair chance at electing a progressive government. The corporatists OWN the election counting system. They will never let a truly progressive government form. Never. If the progressive movement DOES occur in this country, but the election mechanism still exists as it does today, then they WILL steal elections. Then, we will all be told that we can't have progressive government and enough people will believe it to ensure that becomes a reality.
It's such an important reform that needs to take place. Now.
