and it has the unfortunate quality of being true.
The Media will never allow it to become mainstream.

to make anything mainstream.

EDIT: just FB'd and tweeted this. You can too, and you should. Or, email or Tumblr or Pin it or Google+ it or whatever.

They'd stop listening as soon as they noticed it's a woman and a black man. That's too much for them.

Strange choice.
But effective information. Just needs to be seen by a hundred million people or so.

10. The Big Lie vs The Big Truth ...
Tue Aug 14, 2012, 08:01 PM
Aug 2012

The Truth can be complicated and the Lie is always simple
The Truth often requires one to adjust to it. The Lie comes ready-to-wear.
The Truth is rarely absolute while the Lie is always black and white.
The Truth appeals to people who think. The Lie does your thinking for you.
The Truth is always open to revision and new information is welcome. The lie is written in stone and new information is rejected as heresy.
---------------
However,
Truths are the building blocks of knowledge. Lies are the ramparts of ignorance.
Truth is something that can bring people together. The Lie is intended to keep people apart.
Truth is the eventual winner but Lies make that victory come more slowly, more painfully.

Even with the Chalkboard ala Beck, This video is too cerebral for low information Fox viewers, but hopefully it can attract more higher information independent voters.

Too bad the main people who should be seeing this video (i.e. Republican voters) are likely to tune out within the first few seconds.

do voter registration drives out of fear of running afoul of election laws, but the States, can make blatant attacks to prevent millions from voting, to allegedly stop the voter fraud that the Shrub's study showed does not exist. This country is already lost! I think we will make the fall of Rome look like a brief bobble. Capitolism will fail due to greed and apathy, what a shame!

Most of DU folks know all of this, I'm sure, (we are a smart group).

It's kind of long, so the low information voter might turn the channel.
