Each election year the Republicans and Democrats run the political show. For weeks news concerning McCain, Obama, Palin and Biden have invaded our lives, well not so much Biden, but the fact remains, they are the media’s target.
This has been the practice of main stream media for as long as I can remember. Last Monday I reported on a third party presidential debate in Nashville for MTSU’s Sidelines.
Many of my peers were surprised to know that there were other candidates running for president besides Obama and McCain.
"I think that as vibrant as our political system seems some time that alternative views just simply don't permeate the conventional wisdom often enough," Said Bruce Barry, debate’s moderator. "However realistic their candidacies might be, what they have to say is important."
The debate was open to all third party candidates only six were in attendance.
