DEAR EDITOR:

Do the American voters need the mainstream media telling us how to think? How to talk? How to act? How to live? How to vote?

Whoever the mainstream media promotes, I’m against it.

I listened to the first presidential debate without commentaries from the media, but after listening to Biden’s town hall meeting, I doubt that he was even at the presidential debate.

I still remember his first town hall meeting in which the participants were each given the questions they were “permitted to ask.” This second town hall meeting was just as “staged” as the first one.

I enjoy calling myself an “independent” voter. I can be free to make my own decisions and come to my own conclusions. This is what democracy has taught me. I’m free!
