This upcoming presidential election is really shaping up to be one of the greatest debauchles that we have had the pleasure of witnessing. Take for example the latest GOP debate where Fox News asked bias questions and down played their own poll when it gave results they didn't agree with. Or how about candidates MIke Gravel (D) and Ron Paul (R) - Ever heard of them? If not it's because they aren't mentioned in the media ever despite being favored in the polls. Take second and read the links to understand why. Then there is this (which may or may not be paranoia, but is still pretty weird). Why is it so hard to get all the cards on the table? Thanks Yuko.

"Today is believed to be the birthday of the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson, born in Hazlehurst, Mississippi (1911). We know very little about his life. He's been so mythologized that he's become almost a character out of a folktale. The only reason we know for sure he existed is that in 1937 he recorded 29 of his songs over the course of two recording sessions. He had two photographs taken of himself around the same time. Those were the only recordings he made and the only photographs taken of him in his lifetime, and he died the following year, at the age of 27." - from... not familiar?, check OUR PODCAST. RIP
