[quote="kevinberry1"]Lotas, the notion of a "Liberal Media" is baseless and an outright myth. Have you ever read the book "What Liberal Media" by Eric Alterman? I would highly suggest it. He provides a lot of evidence to disprove this and how many conservatives make this claim without any substantiation. His determination, based on historical evidence, is that the media is neither more conservative or liberal, but that it tends to follow what is popular and what people are interested in]
Good points Kevin I agree, but as far as the media deal, something still tells me you could read a book titled "The Liberal Media" and they would have just as many points.
I do agree with the winner-take all system. 3rd parties just have no chance in America. If they weren't so radical and they'd cast their net in a little more on the spectrum I think they'd have a better chance.
I'm just gonna go back to the 70's and agree with Roger Waters and Floyd with their song "Money", mixed with a bit of bipartisan politics and a winner-take all system. That should pretty much sum it up.
If you don't have boatloads of money, and you aren't running for the Republicans or Democrats, you are a third party and you will not win. Maybe we should revise the winner take all system of politics?
Really I don't like to label myself as a Republican or Democrat, I go for conservative/liberal and authoritarian/libertarian.
