Americans gave their votes to the major party candidates because they thought minor candidates like Paul and Nader couldn't win. They caved in to the lying mass media who promoted that very notion. Had all of the American population ignored this and voted as they actually wanted Paul or Nader would have won.

Too bad this has less than 500 views. What you said makes sense.

It's funny when Nader explains the reason the question was asked and even tries to explain the idea behind "Uncle Tom" (toward the end) the reporter just dismisses him as "irrelevant" and ends the conversation.

Reporter: What you say!?

Nader: Because of this ...

Reporter: You're irrelevant

Nader: Retort & continue of observations

Reporter: Good bye.

Fox New's reporting of politics is irrelevant... Gotta love morons.

Thanks for your comment.

Yes, the right to "free speech" has become segregated like every other "right" we have. For the privileged few it is the right to own or influence a media empire while to the rest it is the right to engage in discussion with one or not more than two others to quietly discuss your views. However, that's wht talking about a revolution sounds like a whisper.

But the reporter, like all of the hangers on to empire, acts contrary to his own best interests. A fool!

fuck off and get involved in austrailian politics u fucking idiot not american politics

[allenjasson]

Now there's a rare intellectual insight.

Just for your information - the US has been meddling in Australia since WW2 and in 1975 engineered a coup against the socialist government of Gough Whitlam. It's you Americans who need to "fuck off" as you put it, and get involved in their own politics rather than meddling in the rest of the world breeding the hatered that will inevitably come back to you and make it ultimately impossible for Americans to travel because you are universally despised.

Obama is clearly an Uncle Tom.

He didn't repeal the Patriot Act, he didn't end the war in Iraq, he didn't stop the Bush/Paulson bailouts, he didn't close Guantanamo.

And quit calling us capitalist. We were somewhat capitalist 50 years ago, today, we are fascists.

[Apathesis0]

@allenjasson YES! YES! People are unfortunately easily manipulated. I made the smart decision and voted third party and I urge everyone to do so. Vote out the incumbents too!

[benjilittleman555]

Honestly we need to listen what other country's are saying about us. Only then can we get better. We have to respect what they choose and how they view us. I mean, a million people on television that act like idiots will be viewed by other country's as what american people are. For god sake make your children better to because if we teach our kids the right way we can have a chance at a better future. BEAT THEM if you have to(not to harsh though)

It seems,perhaps, unlikely that Nader and his cause will lead to the extirpation of the tumultuous corporate influence in the nation without the rational support of the denizens in the United States; however, these denizens subject themselves to deceitful news mediators that are subordinate,culturally and corporately, to big business. To inform the masses, Nader needs the media, but to lie his way to debates would be to abandon his dogma, garble his message, and crawl towards the seat of power.

Thank you, thank you. You hit the nail on the head. Fox News has a responsibility and has totally abrogated that responsibility.  Its methods of propaganda are very disturbing and are a threat to democracy. If people look at Fox News and are disturbed by what they see, they can then understand how the German people were deceived by the Nazi propaganda machine.Reporting the news is a serious business and should not be used as a guise to present a political viewpoint. Canada banned Fox News.

Nader was so right. Obama is a bitch and an Uncle Tom

[cowboysfan782008]

Great video, and you nailed it. It is unfortunate that when he used the Uncle Tom expression that it gave the media all of the fuel that it needed, but that is EXACTLY the problem in this Country today. IE: Enforcing immigration law's is racist, a mosque at ground zero is only freedom of religion, etc etc. America is broke but still has to cater in ways that other country's like mexico and iran would never cater to us. The media will always find "CRAP" to divert us from what is right and just!

@ecoli2345@ecoli2345 I think its like when you can give great advise to a friend, but to give yourself the advise it doesn't work nearly as well, And outside source has not been conditioned to your things. So thank you Allen for being kind and giving us a great outside look and please always remember, there are lots of kind and loving people here ( I know you already know that, But I still wanted to say that and hello :)
