. . . and doesn’t allow the media to control elections.
Don’t believe that the media don’t control elections. It was amazing that in the last election Ron Paul got any coverage at all.
In the 2004 election there were three candidates on the ballot in Illinois: Bush, Kerry and Michael Badnarik. The media covered Bush, Kerry and Ralph Nader.
On the day that Mr. Badnarik was speaking in Chicago, not one of the Chicago newspapers even mentioned it.
On election day I heard several people question who Badnarik was, since nobody ever heard of him until they received their ballot.
