Great pic of DK fighting for his Political Rights
MSNBC continues to promote tonight’s Democratic presidential candidate debate, while the cable news network’s parent company awaits a ruling from the Nevada Supreme Court that will determine whether the forum may proceed without Dennis Kucinich.

1. 3-4%
seems within the range of even remotely earning delegates? That would be info worth noting as would the political makeup of the Nevada Supreme Court. The linkage between a news network standard and fair party standards seems a problem legally? Anyone?

4. Under current totals
that is significant enough as well. He has a voice in the National Convention but none on national TV.

10. DK fighting for OUR Political Rights...
Clinton 25%, Edwards 19%, Obama 17%, Gravel 6%, Kucinich 3%

This is the percentage of time alloted to the candidates during the crucial first hour of the ABC debate in August.

Forget about the candidates for a moment and focus on the issues they bring to the discussion and what the corporate media does NOT want the American people to hear. What a relief for the big corporations! In other words these issues received 3% of the media time



Exposing the propaganda regarding the threat from Iran

Challenges to big oil --- attempting to control the resources of Iraq through the draft Irag Oil Law which Congress passed as a benchmark in the spring supplemental spending bill

Challenges to the insurance industry --- Not for profit health care

Challenges to the weapons manufactures ---reduced military spending

Accountability/impeachment

Free trade agreements, who voted for those agreements that affect jobs and salaries and under which administration they were signed into law


Now we can have debates without these bothersome issues being mentioned
