Don't be snookered again. How do you really know who you are voting for in this presidential election, like all of ther others? Campaign rhetoric? Promises (from a politician?) The mainstream (corporate) media? Get real. It's money people. Always has been, always will be.

Who's giving the money and who's getting it?

Let's see the top 5 campaign contributors for the candidates this year:

Obama: (1) Univ of California; (2) Microsoft; (3) Google; (4) Harvard; (5) United States Government

Romney: (1) Goldman Sachs (interestingly, Goldman was Obama's #2 in 2008); (2) Bank of America; (3) JP Morgan; (4) Microsoft; (5) Credit Suisse

Now, please tell me where do the candidates' real allegiances lie? Us or them?

By comparison, let's look at the top 5 campaign contributors for that alleged radical weirdo isolationist candidate Ron Paul (really the liberty loving, sound money, dismantle the welfare/warfare state candidate): (1) United States Army; (2) United States Air Force; (3) United States Navy; (4) Google; (5) United States Department of Defense.

Quite a contrast don't you think. Unfortunately, we are again stuck with their choices of candidates, not ours.
