The internet's probably the best way, altho' the incessant media coordination causes a phenomenon known as "unintentional learning". The various folks who wish to influence American opinion have this down to a science, all the way from psy-ops operations in the background, to Dem campaign consultants like Dick Morris last week in a seminar. The ones with the largest budgets do it best. What gets lost is any rationality. All of this collective mindf** of the American people has one silver lining - it begins to innoculate them against the repeated message. I may be wrong, but unlike Orwell's 1984, we're getting slowly better at disregarding nonsense. The best learning tool is the stock market, which, in spite of large chunks of corruption, manages to absorb huge amounts of information and dissemintate it, teaching people to parse phony statements, as they get screwed by Anderson, etc. Now, if people would value their vote and voice in society as much as their stock portfolio.... Eventually.
