3 of those people have one big thing in common: they focused on controlling the media. Control the media, you control a helluva lotta things.
Well, he's going against the guy in power. So, yeah, he's fighting an uphill battle against the dude who has controlled the media for the last 4 years. For the record, I'm a fan of neither. Despise them both. But it's one of the most intriguing things I've long felt Obama - he has such a control on the media. Anyone with that much power having control over the media is a terrible, terrible thing. Terrifying. That being said, I'm terrified everyone but the wealthy will be screwed with Romney. So with regards to the upcoming election, I'm the kid in class that puts his head down to avoid making eye contact with the teacher, thinking, "Please don't pick me." As a country, we'll be in bad shape with either candidate. Whichever ultimately effects me the least is who I hope wins. That just tells you how sad our politics are.
Except that the media in the US in 2012 is rather different than the media in 1930's Germany, don't you think? barfo
So you're saying Romney is a "false flag operation"? A poor candidate that the Dems got into the election so that Obama would walk in a landslide?
A lot of shit is different between 1930 and 2012. But there's a lot to gain and learn about today by learning about the past.
