LESSONS IN DEMOCRACY:
EDWARDS PROVEN WRONG WHEN A WOMAN AND
A BLACK MAN
EACH GET MORE THAN DOUBLE EDWARDS' VOTES IN NEW HAMPSHIRE;
VOTING MACHINES ARE SUSPECT IN NEW
HAMPSHIRE
Special Report by the Creative Youth News Team

The message of the John Edwards campaign has been that the best cannot
win, a black cannot win and a woman cannot win. Last night, John
Edwards was creamed by a black man and by a woman. Hillary
Clinton got 39% of the vote in New Hampshire. Barack Obama got
36%. John Edwards got 17%, less than half the total
of the lowest of the two front-runners.
The news media in New Hampshire tried to trick voters into believing
Congressman Dennis Kucinich had dropped out of the race. In an
promotional for its favored candidates, ABC in New Hampshire excluded
Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel from the debate the weekend before the
election. The exclusion
was protested by voting rights advocates from coast to coast. Fox
similarly tried to exclude Ron Paul, but the New Hampshire Republican
Party had the integrity to pull out of those misleadingly rigged
debates. The Democratic Party did not choose to stand up for
democracy and the result was that ABC was allowed to mislead the public
regarding which candidates were still in the race. When the
results came through, ABC misrepresented Kucinich's totals, putting on
their screen the same percentages for Kucinich, Biden, Dodd and
Gravel. In fact, Kucinich had more than six times the votes
numbers of
Biden and almost 20 times the vote totals of Dodd. This is not
the first time ABC has tried to mislead the public about Kucinich's
numbers. Following an earlier debate, ABC intentionally cropped
Kucinich's image out of the debate photo and removed polls showing that
the public felt Kucinich won the debate by a landslide. Given
that Kucinich tied Obama for second place in a University of New
Hampshire straw poll of students who knew Kucinich was still in the
race, it
seems than anything less than a high finish for Kucinich would indicate
ABC was successful in misleading the public regarding Kucinich's
election status. A class action lawsuit is being prepared on
behalf of members of the public who were damaged by ABC's actions.
One other concern surfaced regarding the New Hampshire Primary.
Only one candidat running for President, Dennis Kucinich, has taken the
lead in standing
up against rigged voting machines. Early yesterday, the public
learned that the machines used in New Hampshire were the ones shown to
provide grossly inaccurate results in a video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiiaBqwqkXs.
It has been reported that there have been no
upgrades or mitigations performed on these computers. In the
video, with the card zeroed at the start, six no votes and two yes
votes are counted as seven yes votes and one no vote. With
Kucinich being the one candidate investigating such voting machine
errors, he would be the last candidate the owners of the LHS company,
that has the exclusive programming contracts for voting machines
counting 81% of New Hampshire results, would want to see elected
President. The motive and ability to lessen his
totals was there. Voters watched to see if
sure motive and ability turned into action. What was seen
was that that Kucinich lost a substantial number of votes off his total
at one point during in the evening. As a result of the loss of
votes, he dropped down to a fraction of his previous percentage of
total Democratic votes. Why would those votes
have been removed? The other candidates' counts
were relatively constant and continued to receive additions and no
subtractions. So, how many votes did Kucinich get in New
Hampshire? America will probably never know unless there is a
full recount. It's time for an investigation.
