I thought the US economy was mostly foreign owned these days?

"It's a mystery to me - the game commences, For the usual fee - plus expenses, Confidential information - it's in my diary..."

They cannot loose now. Edwards is out, and Dems are left with precisely the tedious choice United Corporations must have been dreaming off: potentially repulsive Hillary Clinton, and potentially unappealing Obama. Dem activists and sympathizers are being manipulated into a disappointing nomination again, and oh so easily. Way wrong time to be excited with "minority" nominees...

No doubt, big business is controlling the media and both political parties. There is no use of these Dems even when they win. All this nomination circus, with escalated primaries schedule, vague rules and voting, both nomination races "suddenly" still undecided, plus unreliable vote counting... smells like a grand set-up. I would not be surprised if the issue of Michigan and Florida Dem delegates (being excluded for now) is just another convenient lever.

People are free to know more, but they are kept clueless or unsure pretty firmly. They get no good representation in power plays, that's clear. That's what you get when you rely on "bipartisan" offers while cash flows are free to feed themselves. Brave souls like Kucinich, Edwards, and let's add Al Gore, have no vision and determination to break the corporate media-political wall.
