Media Bias and GOP Candidates
Of course we all know about the liberal media bias that prevails throughout the industry, but why is the media, including Fox News trying to dictate who the top GOP candidates should be? I have been so disappointed with Fox News for the past several months that I have sent comments to them on their website to ask, "Why are you ignoring some of the Republican candidates and giving almost all the coverage to Romney and Perry?" All the networks, including Fox News, have been on the same bandwagon to promote Mitt Romney and Rick Perry as the top GOP candidates. They were telling us that the field had narrowed down to these two candidates before Rick Perry was even in the race. Well, I am esctatic that Herman Cain won the Florida Straw Poll this weekend. Hopefully, that will send a strong message to Fox that you cannot tell us who to choose. I haven't decided which candidate I can fully support yet and I know many conservatives who feel the same way. Why is the media trying to ram Romney and Perry down our throats? Why have they been ignoring Gingrich and Santorum and to a lesser degree, Cain? I've watched every debate to date. Again, Fox News seems to be on the same bandwagon as the other big networks. Other than Sean Hannity, it seems that no one on Fox is even trying to give us maximum information on all of the GOP contenders. I have narrowed my decision to Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and Herman Cain, but haven't yet decided which one I support. But I do know that Romney and Perry are two politicians and neither have the conservative values we desperately need on the most important issues. We cannot afford to select a moderate with the belief that a moderate can win while a conservative cannot win. Why? --- Because our country is on the fast track toward economic and social collapse and more of the same will not keep us from disaster. A moderate Republican who is experienced at compromising with the liberal democrats, will only provide the liberals with a scapegoat when the economy collapses. A moderate, compromising approach will be too little, too late to save our country from collapse. A strong conservative may not be able to win, but only a strong conservative can have a chance to turn the tide. America is headed toward self-destruction. Though Obama is a nightmare in American history, please remember that the real difference between Obama and every other President we've had since Ronald Reagan is only a matter of to what degree they chose to tax and spend and expand the federal government. Obama significantly accelerated our race toward Socialism, but we've been heading in that direction at a steady pace for many years through Republican and Democrat Administrations. Our only hope is to elect a true conservative leader who believes in the principles of our founding fathers and will fight to change our direction to restore freedom and respect for the Constitution. It is not more important to win! It is more important to elect the right President. If we cannot elect a conservative, we will not win anything worthwhile by electing a moderate; we will have only compromised our values and our future.
