And so what do The Headlines look like this morning?
Well...how about MSNBC?
Well...surely ABC is reporting something on Bernie...
Oh for fuck's sake...
Now do you still think the Media blackout is some Conspiracy Theory???
They know exactly what this achieves. If you are a voter that doesn't pay attention and just skims the headlines...you would have no clue how well Sanders did yesterday. That would be The Point.
Feeling manipulated yet???
So...in case you think I made the wins up.
Kansas Results: Sanders 67.7% to Hillary's 32.3 %
and
Nebraska Results: Sanders 57.1 % to Hillary's 42.9%
Kansas reports in their local news that it was the biggest turnout they have ever had.
Actual Current Delegate Count |
Why do they continually try to show Clinton as having the Super Delegate Advantage? The same reason some designers have started calling a size 8/10 a size 5...Vanity Labels. An illusion. A trick to make you believe she has a greater lead than she really has...and is therefore the shoo in candidate. It reeks of desperation and is (in my opinion) pathetic.
I guess why the whole MSM thing pisses me off so bad is this. I would EXPECT this kind of Media Blackout...if this were North Korea or China...but it makes me sick to see it happen in the United States of America. It is Ridiculous. Shameful. Pathetic. Un-American.
So today we set our sights on Maine and hope for the best. Later this week...Michigan.
Remember...if we turn out in huge numbers and VOTE...we will win this thing!
And keep focused on the long game. There are many many delegates left to win. And don't play into that psych-you-out game that they are playing with adding in the Super Delegates right now to the numbers. Trust me...in July they will be swaying all over the place.
Well, except for maybe Howard "A Scream in the Wind" Dean...who says he isn't going to be influenced by any of us mangy voters...WTH???
He has his Pharmaceutical Buddies to Answer To,You See...
But most of the rest of them have political careers to worry about...ergo...they won't piss us off.
For the true activists among us...here is this year's list of Super Delegates. Write 'em a note. Give them a call. Remind them who employs them.

I also recommend a hand written note to MSM outlets...because it is easy to dismiss e-mails and such. Much more difficult if the complaints start coming in the form of 50 pound mail bags.
And YES...I have always been like this (activist). You would be amazed what an individual can accomplish.
This is the best (just the numbers...without Super Delegates) state by state delegate update I have found. Live in real time updates. Percentages won and lots. In short, News...not Entertainment, Factoids, Misinformation and Suppression. Manipulation.

also TYT.com Independent Network and "Democracy Now" with Jane Goodman are very good sites to check out.
You're Welcome.
Viva La Revolution!
Looking toward Maine, today!
We CAN do this!
Postscript: Maine was a LANDSLIDE. 64% to 34%. It was truly amazing! So many people showed up to caucus that the polls were literally overwhelmed and they are changing to a Primary Election! Thank you, fellow Berniacs! If we show up in large numbers...we WIN!
On to Michigan on Tuesday!!!!
Vox actual won delegate numbers
Hillary 669
Bernie 479
After this weekend.
