DNC Needs to Stand Up to Corpstream Media on Debates The corpstream media have decided not to allow Americans to hear the viewpoints of all Democratic Presidential candidates. They couldn't get away with this without the support of the DNC. It's time for the national party to draw a line in the sand and refuse to allow any candidate to participate in a debate that doens't include all candidates.

We Need a Leader, Not a Manager With the nation at a crucial crossroads on multiple fronts, emphasizing a potential President's resume for managerial experience seems short-sighted. We should, rather, be examining their potential as leaders who can attract followers and then inspire those followers to help create and accomplish a vision.

Electability: Excuse for Not Thinking Mainstream media, hiding behind the notion of "electability" is severely limiting the range of choice and the value of the debate in this country as it moves toward electing its next President. Electability is not a title to be bestowed but rather a character trait to be earned on a level playing field.
