I have been watching the republican debates and can't believe how the candidates that the media like most are asked the most questions and there are a few candidates that are asked hardly any questions. Bachmann being one of them. It seems like the media isn't ready for a women president and doesn't seem to be giving Bachmann a fair shot.
CBS political director, John Dickerson accidentally sent an e-mail out that was also recieved by Bachmann stating that he wasn't interested in having her on his show and that "Bachmann was not going to get many questions" in the debate.
I am disappointed how the media is manipulating the interviews and just allowing only the favorites to speak. I would of liked to have gotten to know her views. I know that she is interested in alot of womens' issues like helping single moms who have to work hard and have little help with childcare and get little time off at work. I am not a single mom but I was at one time and I know how hard it can be. Women have alot of issues that I feel should not be ignored any longer.
I personally think we are long over due. It is time for a women president! I would like to see how a women can make changes. But I can't vote for a candidate that I only have had a few minutes to hear speak and I am not sure if she is the right one for the job or not! The media is not giving her a fair shot. They have their favorites and those are the ones we will be able to vote for. Things have to change! I am so sick of this biased media that has always favored men!!!!

"Inside Job"-- Matt Damon
I can't sleep after seeing the documentary "Inside Job", by Charles H. Ferguson and narrated by Matt Damon, on the downfall of our global economy! It sickens me that the downfall of our economy has been caused by greedy, immoral and selfish men that have no regard for anyone except themselves!
Before you ever discuss the economy or how Wall Street and Washington are run, I suggest that you watch this movie. It scares me that these men that are in power are so corrupt. There is not an ounce of moral fiber in their body.
The movie is based on facts and most of these men refused to be interviewed. We all know that politicians are dishonest and just say what they believe will buy them enough votes to get into office and do not follow through on half of what they promised, in this movie you will get a more clearer picture of how things in this world really run and understand why we are in a recession.
Basically the movie depicts how the men on wall street and Washington took advantage of the American public and continued to make money off of people defaulting on their mortgage in fact they wanted people to default on their loans so they could make more money. It is time that the American people take a stand. The men involved should be punished. Nobody is doing anything about it.
It will be a long time before we get back on track and we might never if we don't make changes on who is running this country, the powerful men in Wall Street and public office. Abe Lincoln must be turning over in his grave to see the kind of men that run this country today. The bottom line is that this country is lacking moral fiber. The lack of morals that I see in today's society is what's going to be our downfall. It is time that men start taking accountability for what they do. As Christie Brinkley said to Ladies Home Journal about today's society "It's an epidemic of male narcissism gone wild!"
