1. I remember that came up some in the 2000 campaign |

2. We went through that already: it did no good |

6. Because the corporate supremacists and their corporate media propaganda machine |
|
don't want the American People to have strong political leadership representing their best interests, they prefer the most powerful office in the land to be occupied by an "all hat and no cattle" corporate puppet.
Thanks for the thread, LLStarks.
