Images of Thom
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
—David C. Korten, author of When Corporations Rule the World and Agenda for A New Economy
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
—David Korten, author of Agenda for a New Economy, The Great Turning, and When Corporations Rule the World
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
—Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen

What Romney and Obama say is irrelevant.
The corporate media's event tonight is not a debate! It's just corporate (R) & (D) party theater — entertainment for people who self-restrict themselves to choosing only between evils.
The corporate party will do whatever the corporate party will do, regardless of whether its (R)s or (D)s are installed.
The only relevant actual debate will be online...
WHAT:
Democracy Now! Expanded Presidential Debate
to include non-corporate on-ballot alternative candidates
WHEN:
8:30 pm on Wednesday, October 3
WHERE:
http://www.democracynow.org/
The corporate media routinely restricts participation in POTUS debates to only the corporate party's candidates — the Republican and the Democrat corporate money manufactured sociopaths dedicated to working together to continue the continuum of corporatocracy.
Democracy Now! is providing equal time for on-ballot alternative candidates — pausing their taping of the corporate media's "debate" after each question addressed by the corporate party's (corporate person) candidates... to allow voters to also hear the positions of non-corporate (natural person) candidates.
Participants:
Barack Obama (the corporate party's Democrat)
Mitt Romney (the corporate party's Republican)
Dr. Jill Stein (Green Party)
Rocky Anderson (Justice Party)
NOTE: Gary Johnson (Libertarian) declined the offer to participate
Protest votes are the only votes not wasted!
