Hi America, it's me Citizen Kate,
Dateline: Des Moines
I learned how hard it is to be an outsider trying to cover inside politics, especially when you run into the control nuts at NPR. I never ever had an experience like the one I had with cool outsider candidate Senator MIke Gravel.
I'm on a quest to find out about America's next great leader. I always say if you don't know, don't vote. So I've been interviewing the presidential candidates. Do I know anything about politics? No. Am I a reporter? Not really. Has that ever stopped me? Heck no! I'm "the people" and we deserve a voice.
Note to self: politics is a tough nut to crack!
Peace and Hugs
Citizen Kate

We spent a crazy day with people's presidential candidate Mike Gravel. It was one of the most eye-opening experiences of my life. Apparently National "public" Radio isn't really about the public being able to spend a day with a candidate and find out what makes them tick. It's about keeping independent reporters out, even if they've got credentials!

OK, here's the premise: CNN uses RubeTube contributors as "shills" for its own ends. The "democratization" of the "debate" process is bullshit. What do you think?
The UTube vids, the questions asked, are not the problem. It's the "selection" process done by the "experts" at CNN that's at the root of the problem. Their criteria for selection are not concrete, nor are they public. And, far worse, the political "debates" aren't really debates, nor are they analyzed by the media pundits (who started using that word?) with any sense of perspective that matters to citizens. Where are the fundamental ethical, long-term issues that truly matter?OK, here's the premise: CNN uses RubeTube contributors as "shills" for... more

""Every single question asked during the debate by the audience had to be approved by CNN...I was asked to submit questions including "lighthearted/fun" questions. I submitted more than five questions on issues important to me. I did a policy memo on Yucca Mountain a year ago and was the finalist for the Truman Scholarship. For sure, I thought I would get to ask the Yucca question that was APPROVED by CNN days in advance. CNN ran out of time and used me to "close" the debate with the pearls/diamonds question."""Every single question asked during the debate by the audience had to be... more

Yup, another, this one was in Las Vegas. Hillary took the heat from fellow candidates who were saying she is inconsistent - saying she'll end the war in Iraq and saying troops will have to stay in country for a long while. Hillary says she's not inconsistent.
Who besides me is sick of he said, she said and wants to hear more of what each candidate plans to do, rather than hear what each candidate thinks of the other candidates and their plans??Yup, another, this one was in Las Vegas. Hillary took the heat from fellow candidates... more

The headline on this video says that Senator Fred Thompson looked "Shaky," during his first GOP debate, but I thought he looked silly. His tie was too tight and his head looked too big and his answers seemed contrived and weird. Who knows maybe this type of swaggering from the actor will appeal to the Republican base, but if Thompson wants to compete maybe he should stick with pithy ironic YouTube videos to conduct his campaign.The headline on this video says that Senator Fred Thompson looked "Shaky,"... more
