21. I Was FURIOUS with CNN

When they announced that, now that O'Malley's in the race, Hillary has competition! I would like to SUE them over this false statement! Hillary has REAL competition in Bernie Sanders. But this false and slanderous announcement of CNN brings one thing into VERY clear focus: how the mainstream corporate media will marginalize any candidate who's not bought and paid for by corporate megabucks. We need to turn this whole situation around and just walk out on all the corporate candidates - leave them to themselves to rake in their corporate cash while they spout their pseudo-populist BS on national TV. We just leave them alone and go to vote for the other guy: Bernie Sanders, the only REAL candidate in this election who has actually proven, through a quarter century-plus of tireless legislating efforts, that he IS a real man of the people. Every major issue that super-majorities of the American people, regardless of party affiliation, all agree on - Bernie supports them, and is going to fight for them. If he can turn out the crossover voters en masse, there is nothing that can stop him. And if he goes under the radar of the corporate media, so be it: we laugh all the way to the voting booth. NO MORE voting for the lesser of two corporate evils! The future of our nation is much more valuable and important than the cynical political games of the 1%.
