Until we do something about our lying ass misleading press

2. I barely can make any sense with the typed word so I'd not be a good candidate
There's lots of things I can do but this would not be one of them.

If we don't get the press right we have no chance in getting much if any changes made.

4. Let it happen? They are involved.
Who are you kidding? Democrats want the press controlled just as much as Republicans do.
