Stealing from a previous petition, "Let Gravel Speak", which successfully led to Sen. Gravel being invited to the New Hampshire debate on June 3, 2007, again, we must take a stand because Sen. Mike Gravel's exclusion from online coverage at: ABC, MSNBC, CBS, and Yahoo News! smacks of media sponsored censorship; meaning, the media (which has already used questionable behavior in the past six years of the Bush administration) has decided whom we may see, hear and choose from.  I feel that all voters and the rest of the country should make their own choice of who to support without media bias.  May the best man, or woman, win!

I just finished reviewing the following sites (ABC, MSNBC, CBS, Yahoo News!) regarding the Democratic and Republican 2008 Presidential race and discovered that Mike Gravel and Ron Paul have been excluded.  Mr. Paul has received a little more online coverage, but for the most part, these two, fine candidates have been excluded.  If you agree that the corporate media is blocking access to ALL candidates, sign the petition and forward to your friends.

See links to the media coverage below for yourself.

Sincerely,

Brian
