Comments for The Invisible Candidate: Lighting on the Nader Media Blackout at http://www.pacificfreepress.com , comment 1 to 5 out of 5 comments http://www.pacificfreepress.com Tue, 02 Dec 2008 13:19:35 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/2904-the-invisible-candidate-lighting-on-the-nader-media-blackout.html#comment-2095 How sad that I can't find more articles like this written in the U.S. Ralph Nader is the only one who has never waivered from his message to try to get votes. And how sad that Americans are willing to contribute to Ralph Nader's blackout by the media by refusing to sign a petition to get him on the ballot. It's all done out of fear, a true sign that we really don't have many rights here. I'm starting to wonder what differences there are between the American voting system and corrupt voting systems in other countries. The difference is our rights our controlled not by dictators but by large corporations. - EK Sun, 03 Aug 2008 17:34:11 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/2904-the-invisible-candidate-lighting-on-the-nader-media-blackout.html#comment-2094 is Ralph Nader. Think about it: Why are they so scared to debate him? If Google's debate goes off, and they uphold their pledge to include Nader, then you will see Nader's numbers jump significantly. And many people will start to wake up. Corporations want us to buy Nikes and drink Pepsi for life. They want us to depend on oil for transportation. They want to send jobs overseas to maximize their profits (with corporate-sponsored bills like NAFTA.) They want to rig professional games in order to have a giant-revenue generating "Game 7." They want to saturuate athletic events with advertisements and commercials, replace the names of stadiums once reserved for local hereos and local culture. They want to tell our doctors how to practice so that profit, no health, is the bottom line. Ditto for the pharmaceutical industry. Corporations like politicians like Clinton, and Obama. Notice how the Clintons are introducing Barack to all their corporate buddies at posh fundraising conventions? People need to wake up...and in a hurry. Nader just got the Peace and Freedom nomination here in California. This is a giant boost for us. I tried to vote Nader in 2004, but had to write his name in. Because the Democrat Party filed many lawsuits and had his name taken off the ballot in many states. Only to get whupped anyway. "Every vote must count" they said in 2000. Unless it's not for them, apparently. Now they say Ralph shouldn't run because it will hurt their candidate's chances of winning. What gall. And what a bunch of whiners. You had your chance in 2004, and got spanked. Now sit down and shut up. It's time for someone else to step up to the plate. A real candidate who refuses to take corporate money. A man of courage, knowledge, experience, and integrity. A man by the name of Ralph Nader. - Nolan Sun, 03 Aug 2008 07:05:00 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/2904-the-invisible-candidate-lighting-on-the-nader-media-blackout.html#comment-2093 I can only hope that our divided, distracted, diverted populace does something other than electing one of the corporate shills running, we’ve had 200 years to have a representative government, and still have a corporate power structure that has run us into the ditch YET AGAIN! Lets do something different this time, Vote Sanity, Vote Nader. - Tim Matthews Sun, 03 Aug 2008 01:52:08 +0100 http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/2904-the-invisible-candidate-lighting-on-the-nader-media-blackout.html#comment-2091 This article, the likes of which is ultra-hard to come by here in the States, is jam-packed with many of the reasons I support Nader/Gonzalez. It looks like we'll have to work, beginning internationally, from the outside, in, to get the word out since the media here in the U.S. are predominately corporate-controlled. Visit votenader.org for oodles of solutions to beautify the ugliness of U.S. national and foreign policy. - Jessica V.
