Obama and Romney pushed on us by a mainstream media hostile to our rights
See Inside Job (2010) on DVD

It really is a disgrace that the media isn't making this clear to the public. Think about the arrogance at work here, Romney can pick Glenn Hubbard, a man exposed in the movie Inside Job, and he can get away with it because mainstream media really isn't doing the job many Americans assume it would be doing when a vulgar choice is made as far as the chief economic adviser. This is arrogance of power, this creep was getting paid to push policies which are the reason the economy crashed in the first place!

Glenn Hubbard?!?
I am working on a video about Glenn Hubbard who is increadibly the chief economic adviser to Mitt Romney! Hubbard is the former Chief Economic Adviser to President Bush. Hubbard's the guy who pushed the very policies and practices which tanked the economy! He got paid to write papers praising the very things that caused the economy to crash! It is insane that people are considering this path again! Mass media is guilty of journalistic malpractice because this situation shouldn't be happening. This is another example of why we desperately need to formally establish a representative press which by design will have the American people's interests built into it. It is unacceptable for the current mainstream media to act like it's even close to reasonable to consider the Romney economic plan crafted by the same people who are guilty of pushing the very things that just recently severely damaged our economy so bad that we still haven't completely recovered.
There are other people we can vote for, seriously, no one should be voting for Romney and if anyone is it is clear the media has really let them down. If people are relying on the nighlty news to understand the economic situation then they really have been taken advantage of by the powers that be. This sistuation is sickening given how bad the economy crahsed in 2008.

In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found
"In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found, than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department. Beside the objection to such a mixture to heterogeneous powers, the trust and the temptation would be too great for any one man; not such as nature may offer as the prodigy of many centuries, but such as may be expected in the ordinary successions of magistracy. War is in fact the true nurse of executive aggrandizement. In war, a physical force is to be created; and it is the executive will, which is to direct it. In war, the public treasures are to be unlocked; and it is the executive hand which is to dispense them. In war, the honours and emoluments of office are to be multiplied; and it is the executive patronage under which they are to be enjoyed. It is in war, finally, that laurels are to be gathered; and it is the executive brow they are to encircle. The strongest passions and most dangerous weaknesses of the human breast; ambition, avarice, vanity, the honourable or venial love of fame, are all in conspiracy against the desire and duty of peace." - James Madison, Letters of Helvidius, nos. 1--4 24 Aug. -- 14 Sept. 1793

Is Iran Trying To Tell Us Something We Won’t Hear?
"Iranian nuclear experts are also offering compromise proposals reported by IPS journalist Gareth Porter but not yet any major media outlets:
“Iran has again offered to halt its enrichment of uranium to 20 percent, which the United States has identified as its highest priority in the nuclear talks, in return for easing sanctions against Iran, according to Iran's permanent representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Ali Asghar Soltanieh, who has conducted Iran's negotiations with the IAEA in Tehran and Vienna, revealed in an interview with IPS that Iran had made the offer at the meeting between EU Foreign Policy Chief Catherine Ashton and Iran's leading nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili in Istanbul Sept. 19.”
And so, there are clearly initiatives underway to build bridges, but so far, media outlets, eager to fan the flames of confrontation and polarization, have ignored them. Is it ignorance or something worse?" Danny Schechter writes in his article "Is Iran Trying To Tell Us Something We Won’t Hear?"
Something worse Danny, we cannot trust the media, they are getting people killed and are going to get more people killed if we don't do things to end their domination of our country's public discourse.
