Big difference that the sheeple do not understand which will result in their eventual death. [/quote] I know that. We are a Democratically-elected Republic. But its not democratic that the biggest candidate is the one who fund-raises the most. [/quote]

Its really 2 things: 1- Media Bias. How much media likes you. And 2- MONEY!!!! Its about greens not democracy. The one who has the most money has the best chance. Couple that with good media bias and you have someone almost invincible. I mean really; how is it democratic when you have to "campaign"? It should be just have everyone get information about each candidate and have them vote based on who they think is best for the issues. But no its the one who advertises wins. It may be a liberal idea but I don't think the rich should be the ones who have a chance to win. In a Democratic country it should be anyone.
