The problem is the politicians who are nominated are just puppets. I mean all u have to do is look at the donations. Money isn't free.
THe little guys like Ron Paul gets treated like cow dung by the mainstream media so we always end up picking who the media decides for us.
After IRS, Benghazi scandals, public trust shifts to GOP

Which is kinda silly. I'm looking at Christie who will most likely by the GOP nominee for 2016 ... and he's turning into Bush/Obama. Same/same. The public shouldn't trust any of them. We need a clean sweep with 3rd and 4th and 5th parties ....edit on 5/23/2013 by FlyersFan because: fixed quote

Ron Paul spent 30 years in the Senate and consistently beat out democrats and republicans so apparently your "media" isn't that powerful.
And how does the media decide who gets in when you have conservative and liberal media both endorsing opposite candidates?
Someone always loses.
The media is a business, not a political entity and they prefer to make money over anything.

Sorry. Not buying it. Yeah, this latest round involves a Democratic administration but so what? Same crowd as the Republicans. They are the same species.
