ABC violates public interests, endorsing chosen candidates

dennis4president.com


Dennis Kucinich has filed an emergency complaint with the FCC because he has been excluded from participating in the New Hampshire debate based on the fact that he didn't place fourth in Iowa. The party specifically excluded him from participating there, in spite of his winning several straw polls in recent weeks, finishing far ahead of the others in most surveys of Progressive voters.


Should Walt Disney Co. be allowed to decide who you can vote for? Because this is a pretty clear effort to influence and election. Dennis is qualified to run - he qualified for federal matching funds, and that makes him a viable candidate whether people like it or not.

This really chaps my ass - this is America, goddam it! We own the air waves - not the corporations we allow to use them. If ABC doesn't let Dennis participate, they should lose their license.

If I weren't already a Kucinich supporter, this would make me one. I'd vote for him just because the corporate owners of this country don't want me to.


What we can do:

The Debate is at 7 pm - if Dennis isn't there, call your local ABC affiliate and complain.
