EP102: How to Watch the Rigged CNN Debate - Gracearchy with Jim Babka
Since at least 1988, televised presidential debates have been manipulated to discriminate against certain candidates. In this episode, we reveal the way Chase Oliver and Bobby Kennedy legally qualify, and the way that Donald Trump and Joe Biden do not qualify for CNN's June 27 match-up.
We also open and expose the playbook used by the members of the Conflict Machine (political industrial complex) to influence voters and perpetuate a feeling of powerlessness. You'll see right through the rigging. Plus, we debunk the myth of wasted votes and show why Libertarians and Greens don’t "steal" votes from major parties (it's the other way around). Equip yourself with history and political science insights that will amaze and convince your friends. And if you share this episode with friends, it'll change the way they view debates forever. They'll see the rigging too!
