I can't seem to get a word in edgewise

The reality of running for political office as an independent is very difficult; the media does not give you a fair shake..This election cycle as in the previous ones is dominated by the banter of democrats and republicans.  The presidential campaign is not dominated by the issues that concern the people rather it is dominated by personal attacks one candidate at the other.  There is no independent candidate for president even though fifty-five percent of the electorate is independent, not affiliated with any political party..so how come there is no independent voice?  The media simply ignores them. Personally, I think the media is afraid to talk about them because the networks might lose their sponsors.  I think that mass media  sells what their sponsors want you to hear.  Now that does not sound very democratic to me; does it to you?  With regard to my candidacy for the ..House of Representatives....the only media  recognition I received was in the Hudson Valley news..the publisher did not even send me a copy..no radio interviews as of today..but I have been promised by a talk show host at WDST here in Woodstock..Let's see what happens..there are alot of issues I would like to discuss publicly.  Next post I will tell you where I stand on the issues currently.
