Subject: Re: American elections: a choice between two economically inept candidates

Übergeek 바둑이: [ Watching the debate two days ago, I was struck by some things. First, Americans have turned the entire electoral process into a reality TV show... ]

Seriously, you are just now understanding this? This realisation didn't strike you when seeing phony debates on news programs where only one side was represented, or in campaign adds tailored to fit only one narrative? The debate between Romney and Obama was the first time we Americans have been treated to something that didn't look like a phony reality show, but now you recognise how the media has been mostly just putting on a show?

I'm not surprised by this new found "revelation" of yours, I'm just surprised at how easy you make it for booger eating gubbers like me to see through such a thin veil of deception.
