'whogas', as I understand this term, is a filter used by the 'journalist' to assist determination of what to write. It must be the same filter used by all editors and publishers of all major media venues, to assist their determination of what to publish for public consumption.

'whogas', an acronymic term for "who gives a shit?", is a most enlightening philosophical position in the form of a question, supporting a fact that 'news', provided by the major media venues (ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, NPR, C-Span, FOX, etc, and all print media) is only what the particular editors and producers or publishers of those venues decide is 'news', totally influenced by their own biases and prejudices.

Write-ins and Independents in the election for President of the US in the Nov 2000 General Elections do not get any exposure through the major media venues, because the journalists, editors and publishers of those major media venues have decided (in the superiority of their ultimate wisdom and judgement), no one in their audience "gives a shit" about Write-ins and Independents in the election for President of the US in the Nov 2000 General Elections. Journalists, editors and publishers of those major media venues dismiss all of them as kooks and crazies in a zoo of also-rans.

What is probably more true is the fact that all journalists, editors and publishers of those major media venues, of and by themselves, really 'don't give a shit'.

I have yet to read an intelligent column or opinion by any of them, including radio and TV talk hosts, on causes or reasons why the United States and its citizens have been sold-out to all the foreign business and banking interests; why its industrial engineering and manufacturing capability, the family farm and the railroads have been destroyed; and why no one is making connection with this destruction and the social, economic and political disorder and moral decay that is so prevalent in the United States today.

For all the journalists, all products of a socialist system of education for the last 100 years, it is a much easier task, for all of them, to march in lock-step to the beat of the drum of the ruling establishment (link to the ruling establishment provided below). All of them, as it appears to me, live under a belief and impression that 'freedom of the press', under the Article I of the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution was written to apply only to them.

Thinking this over resulted in an anlogy, for application of the 'whogas' philosophy of Darkhorse 2000 to my website, and my hopelessly ridiculous pursuit of candidacy for Office of President - Is it interesting? 'whogas'

The analogy comes from the death of my Father, two months after my 12th birthday, in August 1942. It seems I was naturally aware of him, and his influence on my behavior, from the time of my earliest recollections.

I knew my Father as being well only through my sixth birthday. From the time I was seven, I was involved in caring for him (cleaning out his bed pan and giving him shots of morphine to alleviate pain), watching him die in agony from cancer of the stomach for the next five years, in spite of many different approaches and remedies, including first applications of radiation, and one of the first colostomy operations ever performed and applied, to make him well.

The analogy I try to draw here is my awareness and observation of life in the United States and its influence on my behavior from the time of my earliest recollections. I knew the United States as being well only through my fifteenth birthday, the end of World War II in August 1945.

From the time I was fifteen, I have been watching the United States die in agony from cancer of the abuses of the power and authority of government, from predatory capitalism, in the form of monetary policy under control of a private banking authority, and suffocating socialism, in the form of socialist tax policy and socialist distribution of tax dollars for socialist administration of government.

'whogas'? No one.

Democracy is a perversion of constitutional Government. (Aristotle)
Democracy, like ignorance, is an illness, not a cure, and voting in the November 2000 General Election, no matter who gets elected, will not make a damn bit of difference.

Still working for wages after 58 years, and still almost as poor as a church mouse, running for election solely via the Internet, and doing so for less than it costs to run for 'dog-catcher'. Could do the same for the U.S. as a national household, but will never have that opportunity, because of state ballot-access laws that are as un-constitional as gun-control laws.
