This video was originally posed by <a href="http://www.thethoughts.co.uk" title="The Thoughts of Awake People - A site aimed at getting people to think and over come the control of the mass media" target="_blank">The Thoughts of Awake People</a>.Warning people about physhing is good, but lets look at what the media is really doing here.  Notice they are telling people (particularly the elderly) NOT to go to any web site they haven’t gone to before.  They are also telling them  NOT to click on links anyone ever sends them in an email.This keeps the elderly from doing any research on the web.</p>
<p>This keeps the elderly in the US&#8211;who vote more than anyone else&#8211;from being exposed to any information other than what main stream  media tells them.</p>
<p>Maybe the media is trying to defend their advertising dollars.    It may also be because they don’t want the elderly to know certain things like the US is building 14 permanent military bases in Iraq.</p>
<p>Having watched films like <a href="hthttp://mrxfromplanetx.com/orwell-rolls-in-his-grave" title="Film review of Orwell Rolls in his grave - A look at corporate control and ownership of the mass media for the purpose of manipulating opinions of the general public controlling the general population" target="_blank">Orwell Rolls in his Grave</a>, and <a href="http://mrxfromplanetx.com/century-of-self" title="Film review of Century of Self - The history of public relations manipulating opinion of the general public " target="_blank">Century of Self</a>, I believe this is quite deliberate.</p>
<p>The control the mainstream media has is extremely dangerous to democracy.   We need to reach out to other voters, and particularly elderly voters, in order to break through the reality being created by the mainstream media.</p>
<p>People also  need to understand the real root of political power in the United States is finding out what your precinct is, and attending caucuses.  Depending on the state you live in, the caucus can actually determine who winds up on the ballot.</p>
<p>Again I recommend against splitting off into a third party.  The media will not give them any coverage.   Legally they don&#8217;t have to give them any coverage.  Unless you are a billionaire, the only thing breaking off into a third party will do, is leave the corrupt people in the Democratic Party or the Republican Party to do as they please.  Don&#8217;t get caught in that trap.</p>
