Cynthia McKinney Not In the News!!!

  One of the most outspoken political voices in America, Green Party candidate Cynthia McKinney appears to be absent from the media radar. What is going on? She must really be hitting the nail on the head to be so thoroughly left out of the public view.  Ms McKinney's absence from the airwaves is too blatant to be an oversight.  I have to ask again WHY? Why is the media so shy about reporting  on her campaign? I have seen many instances of her activity on the internet.

Click here for examples that someone has presented  of her activities. IMO She is working tirelessly to fullfill her responsibilty as the Green Party presidential candidate, yet the media behaves as if she's not there at all. This to me is one of those things that makes you go hmmm.

 Is it possible that Cynthia is so close to the truth that she is being blacked out in order to prevent her from planting that seed in all of our minds? Is it that there is a fear that she as a true agent for change is going to attract a larger following than they'd like? A third party could really cause a shakeup in the way things are being run.

 Whatever it is we'd better get to the bottom of it because media is due foa a major overhaul very soon.

Troy Davis is about to be Executed. Is he Innocent?

Where there's smoke there's fire. I don't see the hurry to execute someone when many doubts as to their innocense or guilt arises. I saw this post on Wild Roots Media blog and it caught my attention. Troy Davis, if he is innocent doesn't deserve to be executed. At least look at the case and inform yourself of the available information. Amnesty International has taken up his cause,

This video is an example of unity in the face of adversity.
Under the heading Protect Our Children

Now I notice an article by Jim Clingman using that same

youtube video, that expresses my sentiment in much more detail,

It's on the Electronic Village website and it's entitled-
