Never, ever, ever underestimate the power of the media in determining election outcomes.

If we have any ambitions of removing Barack Obama from the White House next year, this video should your attention about how much work each and every one of us will have to do to combat the media efforts.
If you don't have 9 minutes now, bump it for later and find the time to take note of what goes on in America.
It’s not just the media. Our colleges and universities have done more to push the Democrat’s agenda then the media and the kids that attend rarely question any of the anti-American propaganda that’s fed to them.

Obama was trying to build a cult
Thanks Baynative.
Some people just need a little enlightenment. That’s our job. If we spend all our time preaching to the choir and sending email to our friends we will get nowhere.
Obama won the last election by 6 points. Those are the people we need to find and share the truth with. I have a family friend who one told me she doesn’t like to talk about politics because, “... they are all a bunch of crooks and liars.” I probed a bit and learned that even though she doesn’t ( now it’s didn’t) like to talk politics she always votes ...and you guessed it, she voted (D). She was in a union at the time and her parents had always been (D)s.
I spent some time talking to her about Tea Party values and we don’t always agree with one side pathologically. I followed up by giving her some things to read during her work breaks and off time. (she has no computer) I didn’t bury her with stuff, just some choice renderings like Regan speeches and some Imprimis newsletters from Hillsdale College.
Eventually, she saw the light and when she did, she was like someone who has a new love or diet. She began talking to everyone about what she had learned. Subsequently she registered and voted (R) in 201. She also educated her two daughters. One changed her registration and the other voted for the first time. That was three votes I brought by myself; actually a five vote swing because of the two that switched.
If was all did that, we could swing an election with just Free Republic adherents alone.
Statistically speaking, roughly half the people in the U.S. are below average intelligence.
An unsettling corrollary: They vote.
We have some voters for Hussein here on FR: they are ones who will NOT VOTE for “X, because s/he isn’t as pure as they should be.”
Those who won’t support the non-Hussein is voting for Hussein by not canceling out a pro-Hussein vote. Same for third partiers.
Those people should take not of the closing questions where the people who knew nothing about the man they voted for knew all sorts of WRONG information about the opposition. This is the product of the media.
When it was tweedledum vs. tweedledee, the more telegenic one got the advantage from the dunno crowd.
Hopefully (no pun intended) anyone not living under a rock will know that it’s not tweedledum vs. tweedledee this time around.
Never, ever, ever overestimate the ignorance of the average voter, specially those under thirty. Even those who graduate from the best universities can get straight A's, yet flunk at life. Let's not even talk about the millions of high school dropouts, Hussein's main constituents. The odds of force-feeding them any knowledge of history, economics, sociology or ethics are close to zero
Just like the Zero himself actually admitted last week.
Ethics?
Who has time for that?
Unfortunately, you would probably not find much better answers if you questioned McCain voters.
The truth in their own words and picts to confirm and impress.
worth repeating.....We have some voters for Hussein here on FR: they are ones who will NOT VOTE for “X, because s/he isn’t as pure as they should be.”
Those who won’t support the non-Hussein is voting for Hussein by not canceling out a pro-Hussein vote. Same for third partiers.
Vote for anyone,but obama.........be sure to vote for your choice in the primary....then vote for the winner.
It's not really hard to get straight A's if you major in "Minority Women's Studies" and only have to make sure every paper you write regurgitates what you were told in lecture.
The only way we will get Obama out of a second term is that some of the idiots who voted for him run from him and IF the stupid republicans put up a conservative like Mr. Cain instead of another over the hill liberal RINO like Rummnie. I will vote for Mr. Cain all day, I will not under any circumstances vote for another liberal like McLame and that is what Rommmnie.
I’m not sure who I’m voting for, but I’m definitely NOT voting for Romney.
>> Our colleges and universities have done more to push the Democrat’s agenda
Not exactly correct to say it’s the Democrat’s agenda. It is in reality the agenda of the Leftists occupying the Democrat party. But it is fair to accuse regular Democrats of being willing chumps aiding the Left in the destruction of the Country.
The Founders didnt put a right to vote in the Constitution for a REASON.
Their wisdom has been usurped by Constitutional Amendments.
There is no putting those horses back in the barn.
It's all over but the shouting.
This Republic WILL and Must collapse as surely as the Sun rises every morning, ALL DEMOCRACIES FAIL.
Let's hope we don't make the same mistake when the New American Republic rises from the ashes.
re: “That is fantastic!
Who gets credit for that?”
I think Dennis Miller was the one who said that.
I watched it and it was infuriating to say the least. I encourage everyone to watch it.
Isn't that the truth. The Media has been picking our Republican presidential candidates for us since the Clinton administration. Just look at how they push Romney over the other candidates and it doesn't take Lords of London to figure that odds are he will be the nominee.
thenk you....thank you signed; Barack
How many are for Obama? The answer is in the Bible: “Legions”.
“That is fantastic!
Who gets credit for that?”
Don’t know. Saw it on some forum and stole it.
Obama:Ethics Was Not My Favorite Subject
also Note: Ethics class is in religious schools not public schools
The only candidate I have seen present specific answers to specific problems is Herman Cain.
If we elect another run of the mill, old white guy, career politician, it will guarantee 4 more years of Obama.
Cain has a proven record of creating success in business and is very sharp, as proven by his education and subsequent success in business.
If we are going to turn this economy around, we need to elect Cain and not another career politician, especially not another RINO which is all I see out there.
Example: Every candidate is talking about “across the board” cuts to Government programs.
Cain is saying “Let’s examine each Government program and see if we need to cut it by 8% or by 80%”
That’s the kind of thinking we need.
Also, take a good look at his 9-9-9 tax program, keeping in mind that Cain graduated as a Mathematician and worked for the Navy in that capacity, as well as having been successful in several retail business ventures.
I think he knows what he’s talking about when it comes to the 9-9-9 tax program and is using those numbers to simplify it for the voters.
I don't feel confident in all three happening. (especially, the last)
Do think it would be that much better with mccain?
overwhelmingly so.....first and foremost, McCain wouldn't be trying to turn the U.S. into a socialist utopia. Nationalized health care?????tax the rich and give the money to the not so rich?????redistribution of wealth?????OBAMA IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PERSON TO HAVE HELD THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT (FDR was almost as dangerous) but not quite.
