Mike Gravel Update

After being excluded once again from the democratic debate in Las Vegas, Mike Gravel used streamline TV to comment and answer the questions posed to the other candidates. Gravel blamed his exclusion on "corporate censorship," and claimed that he was at an equal level in the polls with Richardson, Dodd, Biden and the other "lower tier" candidates. Furthermore, Gravel remained optimistic about his position in the election, claiming " maybe the American people are fed up with being led around by the nose by the American media that is controlled by five major corporations...maybe they'll vote for me in protest."
Despite his odds, Gravel is not giving up any time soon!

Fight on, Gravel! A good start, but feel free to elaborate a little more as well as include links to your sources. After all, Mike Gravel was a real favorite at our debate, so people want to know more!

I found it very difficult to find information about what Gravel did this week, but I did find some interesting news about what he has been up to recently. On Saturday, October 13, Gravel made history by becoming the first presidential candidate to speak at an Adult Industry event. Furthermore, Gravel's comments were even more shocking as he proclaimed,“I’m not ashamed to stand up for your industry,” Gravel said, to one of many rounds of applause. “I’m very well aware of what I’m doing here, and it will be interesting. But if it’s handled well by me and by those around me, it will be a milestone in advancing the ball down the field.”“I’m not ashamed to stand up for your industry,” Gravel said, to one of many rounds of applause. “I’m very well aware of what I’m doing here, and it will be interesting...It's an honest industry, be proud of it." Such appearances and remarks definetly set him apart from the crowd!
