Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI have a friend, Comedian in L.A. and his political views sum up our
problems in the next election cycles... Even though he has a good heart and knows right from wrong he conflates Republican politicians with Democratic politicians...They all stink...
And this is a huge problem....Right wing News Media has a simple message.. Obama and his Liberal
supporters are letting millions of immigrants across our borders and a are giving away tons of money to lazy people, just to obtain their votes..Destroying the Constitution..
Our message is much more complex emphasizing empathy and compassion for the disadvantaged and explanations of how Corporations and Banks are taking huge advantage of our govts deregulation policies over the past 20 years.... driving to ruins, millions of middle class Americans.
Our message complex... Their Message simple..
We must come up with better ways to simplify our message..
We also need to find better messengers...ones who dont fumble, speak clearly and concisely and dont ramble....A Symposium on how to respond and fight the Gish Gallop..

You want a president who will allow publicly traded companies to literally get away with murder? You want a president who will declare another trillion dollar stalemate against Iran and Russia? Vote Rand.
