CURRENT TV Countdown w/ KEITH OLBERMANN - Oct. 20, 2011: Interview with Michael Moore on the Occupy Wall Street movement. "Don't fall for the media's trap about who is the spokesman here? We all are."

"...President Obama and the Democrats should get on board the train. Don't try and co-opt it, it's not yours. The engine of that train are the people are at all the Occupy movements and are the 57% of the public who believe in this Occupy movement, that's where the engine is. So, get on board or get out of the way. That's the message."

1. Great interview, I saw it tonight.
Everyone should see Capitalism A Love Story if they have not already seen it. As always with MM, he sees things before everyone else does and that movie came out just as the general public was beginning to wake up. He should release it now as it is so relevant to what is going on.

2. WARNING, If you allow corporate media to put Michael Moore's face on OWS,
OWS will lose, because corporate media and some of the politicians have already made Michael Moore out to be a lunatic, in allot of the publics eyes.

Please don't let it happen again, tell Michael Moore to step out of the lime light.

OWS will handle this one!

4. He has been very careful to say he is not a leader. He is a part of the movement.
He will use his fame to highlight the group.. but is NOT the leader.

5. There is no leader,
everyone is a leader, everyone speaks for themselves. Some voices are amplified by celebrity, this does not make them more valid or any less so.

It is amazing to see how much public opinion is turning against the 1%. We all know that they have been running the show, and we see how well that works out for us,. it is not difficult to tell people, who already know this, that now is the time to make a change.
