		<description>IF people in the OWS group vote, the MAJORITY WILL give their votes to President Obama, hands down.  The Dems may pay too much attention to Wall Street but it IS the REPUBLICANS that repeatedly cowtow to the RICH over ANY other faction in our society and they seem to make NO excuses for that other than their typical LIES that big business and the rich WILL bring about JOBS if they have the LOWEST TAXES in the WORLD!!!!</description>

		<description>The Democrats tell lies about the Republicans and the Republicans tell lies about the Democrats. The national news media, rather than remain unbiased, clearly takes sides and either spreads lies or withholds the truth. And we voters actually think we know something about the character of the candidates of either party???? How so?...Both partys are corrupt to the core. Small wonder that the call for a third or alternative party is so strong.</description>

		<description>Knocking the Tea Party won&#039;t help Obama, they&#039;ll be out in full force to vote against him and you know it. Deep down you want the OWS to support Obama but you know they&#039;d be seen as hypocrites if they do. They should get their own candidate.</description>

		<description>The Tea Party is the latest example of how the two major parties work tirelessly to protect their monopoly on American politics.  OWS has a nationwide appeal, but is lacking a single goal all these groups are trying to accomplish.  IMHO, if OWS would start a movement for the widely circulated 26th Amendment, then the American people would have a clearer understanding to their goals and it would be something we could rally behind.</description>

		<description>Obama is bought and paid for and it would be a shock if he gets re-elected. Will the OWS folks support a guy who&#039;s taken record amounts of wall street money?</description>

		<description>The system is rigged in Washington and they will never allow another third party to emerge in this country.  The Military Industrial Complex (i.e. big business) owns Washington, not the people of this country.  Both parties have lost their direction and more people are coming to the Independent middle but, neither party wants to recognize this.  Neither party sees the OWS movement as an outcry against what is happening in Washington politics and the banks owning this country.  It is going to take more people in the streets before Washington gets the message.  Be Independent and think for yourself.</description>
