I agree, but you and I weren't influenced by the media; we still supported Ron Paul. You can't blame the media entirely, but you can blame the people who unthinkingly let the media dictate their own political views.
So don't blame the media, blame the masses. Why not blame the media?? The media are the ones who treated Ron Paul like garbage on tv, Fox news taking down an answer Ron Paul gave that made him look that much better in an attempt to censor, Fox News telling cameramen not to show Ron Paul supporters in the background, the media specifically taking swipes at Ron Paul supporters and you want me to blame the little guys??
Sorry but I find it insulting when I turn on the news to hear the media stoop low and take swipes at supporters and they pick out a 9-11 truther mixing their own agenda with Ron Paul support whom I'm sure was just out there to make him look bad considering alot of the 9-11 truth blogs that started were formed by questionable people.
Look, I know what an elitest mind set is. I know some. I also know people who are just your everyday citizen who don't care for an elite figurehead approach.
When someone speaks elite, it turns into a reversal of "blame the little easily manipulated people"
Then people always talk about majority vs. minority. There is a spin on those two words.
Majority vs. minority. If you calculate numbers, the elite are in the minority. If you calculate power held, the elite are the majority.
If you put 100,000 people unarmed in a battlefield with 100 people who have tanks, bombs, guns...that just means more to destroy. Those 100 people will live. The 100,000 will die.
I am willing to understand from a journalist's standpoint if the person is feeling bullied into silence or lose their job. I can understand that but I do not endorse the bully.
