Presidential Candidates Arrested, Media Silent

Why did the networks not cover the arrest of two legitimate
presidential candidates?

Is America still a free country?

What if some other country were having an election, and
citizens were only allowed to hear from two government-
approved candidates?

What if two other candidates, on the ballot in a majority
of states and representing parties that drew over 3
million votes in the previous election, were arrested
simply for trying to enter a debate?

What if all that happened, and the "watchdog" news
media didn't tell the citizens about it?

Well, it happened in the good old US of A! Libertarian
Michael Badnarik (on 49 state ballots) and Green David
Cobb (on 28 state ballots), crossed a police line in St.
Louis, and were arrested.

You would think that Fox News, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS,
and MSNBC would be all over this affront to the democratic
process, but no, not a peep.

Badnarik was also attempting to serve the Commission
on Presidential Debates with a "Show Cause Order,"
issued by an Arizona judge, requiring the CPD to appear
at a hearing concerning the Libertarian Party's lawsuit to
stop the upcoming debate at Arizona State University, as
an illegal campaign contribution to Bush and Kerry, an
unconstitutional use of Arizona state funds to support
selected candidates, and a violation of the LP's equal
protection rights, since they are a recognized political
party in Arizona.

If this happened in some other country, what would we
call them? Undemocratic? Human rights violations?
Unbelievable?

If you think America is a free country, you are sadly
mistaken. If you think the news media aren't controlled
by the same people who control the Democrat and
Republican parties, think again.

Of course it isn't. Hasn't been for quite awhile. No complicated
measurement criteria are needed for determining this; all you have to do
is listen to how loudly any given country thumps its chest and sloganeers
about how free it is. The louder, the less free.

Don't know.

However, it seems the major candidates create enough controversy to
keep the news interesting.

Selective indignation.

I doubt non-coverage of this event is a conspiracy, however, the Dems
and Repubs have consistently seen that they both have an interest in
limiting the competition to themselves.

You will never see anyone in office other then a democrat or a republican so
to make it real simple for you if you vote for another party of any type it
is simply a vote for the democrats i.e. socialist pigs

Interestingly, it has been the Republicans who expanded government
and government regulations on business. But please do listen to the
propaganda that tells you the Democrats are at fault for this.

Ever since Lincoln, the Republicans have been the party that creates
government monopolies in various markets. Herbert Hoover was not
so laissez faire as everyone believes. His government deepened the
Depression by attempting to regulate the economy and FDR simply
continued his policies taking them further.

As for GW Bush, well, see here:

I couldn't agree more. Both political parties have been hijacked by
Internationalists, Zionists to be more correct.

Unfortunately, Americans don't care because, to them, politics is like
football. Winning is all that matters, not restoring Constitutional
limitations. Pass the chips and dip, grab a beer, and continue indulging in
apathy. They have become Marx's "useful idiots." Responsibility is to
sorrow as ignorance is to bliss.

Although it is an error not to inform people when two canidates for
the highest office in the land, Cobb and Badnarik don't exactly
capture the countries interest. Although it would be nice to have more
than two strong parties to choose from, it's a fantasy at this point.
The news stations are not going to cover stories which they don't
think will interest a majority of viewers. Chances are, this story
just passed right by their radar without it being noticed.

It's called 'slanting the news'.

Or just plain "blackout." After all, the Zionists control and/or own the
news media.

Two Presidential candidates arrested at the second Presidential debate for
attempting to attend the debates as Presidential candidates. I think that's
rather newsworthy. This event should have been top story, above anything
short of Washington DC being nuked.

But that might be bad for business in the long run. The D's & R's are pretty
darn good about intentionally and continually creating situations that the
media can exploit. No such thing as a slow news day. Always a shooting here,
ACLU there, war, economy, etc.

If the media had covered the third party candidates, people might start to
pay attention. Who knows, perhaps even a third-party President wouldn't be
too far off. Say, for example, Badnarik had won the election, and been
allowed to follow through with his plans. The news would shrink to almost
nothing. No drug busts, no JBTs tazering kids, no TSA, no IRS, etc. Maybe a
blip about a traffic accident, sports scores, couple of humanitarian pieces.
Boring. Won't sell many papers that way.
