The Philly debate hatchet job

The 21st debate in the Democratic race was bound to be a sleeper debate. After a year long bout of debates, whittling down from 8 candidates to 2, many issues had been brought to the forefront and some talked ad nasuem. But the 21st debate in Philadelphia, hosted by ABC and moderated by Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos (a former Clinton aid) treaded into new territory of yellow journalism. The two-hour commercial laden event fell well short of even the loosest definition of a debate. Barack Obama with his front-runner status was inundated with a number of right-field questions.

We need real election reform in the US

Since our founding fathers had declared freedom for the US, our country has had growing pains that should have caused anarchy and mayhem till the country was shattered and unrecoverable.

Seriously the first serious African-American candidate to be in the lead, who has inspired millions, and if she takes that away, that is it. HRC would never win the nomination for the...

Obama speech and CNN headlines

Obama gave an amazing speech today to help qwell the controversy of Pastor Wright, and hit on some many profound points that should move anyone who sees it or reads it. The problem is for those that do not read it or see it, they will be greeted by a headline like this on CNN a couple minutes after it was delivered, and after a few minutes was replaced with a second image:   This positive speech by Obama, that lasted quite a while, has been reduced to a snippet of it that on the face seems very negative. Just another example that the Media is an antagonist for chaos. The tone of that headline in no...
