With Allah's Name ~ Quran 43:80 Or deem they that We cannot hear their secret thoughts and private confidences? Nay, but Our envoys, present with them, do record.

TRICKS OF THE MASS MEDIA

There are a few tricks of the media to discourage the voters or supporters of a candidate. Please be aware of these:

1. Emphasis or focus on POLLS that show a candidate behind. (Q. How reliable are the polls, source of survey and what people are polled?)

2. Downplay past/present accomplishments and emphasis on past and present weaknesses.

3. Bury a candidate event or speech on a websites hompage and in Headline News.

4. Critic all mistake or error made by a candidate. Ignoring positive progress a candidate makes.

5. Mock or make fun of the candidate strengths in the "Comic" monologues or news type programs.

6. Have the voter think there is plenty of time since the election is 2008. However, the primaries are in January 2007.
