Double Standards and Fair Elections
From Joe Newman over at Citizenvox.org:
There’s an interesting breakdown on the FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting) site of how the herd mentality of the media seems to have a double standard when it comes to the presidential candidates and their views on public financing of the general election. While Public Citizen is non-partisan, we do feel strongly about public financing of elections as one of the best ways to reduce the influence of special interests in politics. Sens. Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) and Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) have introduced the bipartisan Fair Elections Now Act, which would create a voluntary system to publicly fund congressional elections. You can help this effort by signing on to be a “citizen co-sponor” of this legislation.
What is your motivation in attempting to discredit Larry Sinclair?
I have been watching this play out and have spent much time
researching Barack Obama.
Will you provide a direct, honest answer?
Thank you.
