If DEM Voters remain fixated on 2 sides of a 3 sided battle...Outcome will be Devastating

[Blackhatjack]

So WHO ARE OUR Competing Parties?

Democrats/Republicans/Corporate Repubs/Corporate Democrats/Corporate MSM, etc.

The iterations extend to several levels of special interests.

Now that we have identified the Parties, WHAT ARE THE 3 SIDES OF THIS BATTLE?

THe primary and most powerful entity is that made up of the Corporate/Special Interests, which have bought and paid for the Republican Nomination, and have made a substantial downpayment on the Democratic Candidates they hope will be the Nominee.

THe other two entities are Democratic Candidates heavily influenced by the Corporate/Special Interests who have helped bankroll their hundred million dollar campaigns

AND the Democratic Candidates who have rejected the $$ of the Corporate/Special Interests and present a direct threat to them as they seek to take back the Government which belongs to the American People.

As long as Democratic Voters 'believe' that this is simply a race between Democrats and Republicans on a purely political basis they will continue to be denied their birthright of a true Democracy, and Corporate/Special Interests will become even more powerful.

THIS IS A FIGHT BETWEEN Corporate/Special Interests Controlled DEMS AND Corporate/Special Interests Controlled REPUBS AND Democratic Candidates like John Edwards and Dennis Kucinich who CANNOT BE BOUGHT.

There it is in a nutshell. If We fail to see it we are doomed to suffer even more damage in the future.

2. Actually, that's not it in a nutshell or soup tureen or anything else.

That's simplistic and not the whole truth. Edwards percentage of corporate funding is almost precisely the same as Obama's. And his corporate ties are, in some ways, stronger. It was JE who went to work for Fortress for a hefty payday in the very recent past.

3. Making unsupported false allegations does not make them true, ...

What a load of pure unmitigated falsehoods.

4. A huge chunk of the electorate

beyond the dismaying normality universal to mankind, is swayed by relatively trivial emotions as much as by stark, crying truth and moves like a dangerous mass which varies but little in actuality providing either an unstoppable landslide impervious to truth or a nail-biting close easily exploited by lies and fraud.

Candidates who are not clear within this context lean on the latter, the soft mush one can push with inspiring talk and charisma without saying too much of substance- because cynically they think it involves risk or simply does not matter. Hugging the corporate football into the endzone- only to have it strangely stripped away and the opposition scoring with the help of the referee.

5. Edwards has NEVER taken a dime from a Lobbyist or PAC ... take that Smear Artists!
