How gullible? 21% of Americans say spam can influence how they vote!
The independent survey found that when individuals viewed two political spam emails (one anti-Bush and one anti-Kerry), 21 percent responded that if they received such an email it would have an impact on how they vote in the 2004 presidential election.

This is the kind of ignorance we are up against. If 21% of people say they would change their vote because of a spam, imagine what Bush controlling the entire mainstream media means.

No matter who wins tonight, we have to deal with the media problem somehow or we will never take the country back.

Kerry or Bush is not as imporant in the long run as the media being controlled by the right wing. Even if Kerry wins, they will try to destroy him using the media, just like they did with Clinton. If Bush wins, they will use the media to defend him, like they have done for the last four years.

I know that no one probably cares about this tonight, but I read that survey and I was shocked. Americans are so gullible it's disgusting.
