After speculation that voting might be suppressed if called after poll closure on the east coast, the establishment/corporate media call it the day before. The understanding is that any voter suppression will be more to the detriment of Sanders. Well played media! Your role as a corporate profit center is secure.

From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
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."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."
You always talk about white privilege however let's us define it historically as white male privilege up to wwii. Next let us understand in now ways even today are truely been a civilized nation. Technology giving us more crap is not being civilized just as Roman conquest in ancient time decomposed the countries they took over. The truth is the poor of this nation the white ones fled this to invade native territory. Until there was no where left to flee around 1900s. In which we than had enough none whites and women to be uncivilized towards. White women were treated best starting no earlier than the start of WWII. We truly only have attempted to be civilized since TV connect the us for the first time. However we now are back to a state where who knows if we will be more or less civilized in the us. But make no mistake it was TV in the West along with massive labor movements that for the first made us civilized. We can go either way right now in history
