Editor's Note: Wednesday’s American Morning audience felt Michael Jackson’s nurse, Cherilyn Lee, was not credible and was “trying to make headlines” for herself.

• Tracy: I am very up set that this nurse Cherilyn is trying to make headlines. Are we forgetting that Michael had tons of plastic surgery and was most likely given that drug? The reason why he ask for the medication is because he remembered it put him out while going under the knife. He probably did not realize how dangerous the drug was and just wanted that same experience. Stop making it seem like someone administered that drug while he was in his home. Unless, she was able to get a hold of the drug and gave it to him and is trying to clear her name. She did say she went to the emergency room, did she some how steal the medication and give it to him? Now that’s a story. I don't think that a respectable doctor would administer that drug while in the home, they are not stupid and they know the seriousness of the drug.
• David: I don't believe the nurse claiming MJ called her for drugs. Her story doesn't add up.
• Jeff: the nurse that came forward is lying she said in her first interview Michael asked her for the medicine and he would pay her and then in another interview she said he wanted her to more else find a another person to give him the medicine .she came forward because she feels guilty about something they better investigate this woman hard.

What do you think of Cherilyn Lee’s comments about Michael Jackson’s demands for drugs? Was she telling the truth? Is she trying to make headlines for herself?

Editor's Note: Monday’s American Morning audience shared their condolences over Michael Jackson’s death. With suspicion surrounding Jackson’s death, many had questions for the lawyer of Jackson’s doctor.

• Tim: As MJ's personal house call doctor he was surely aware that MJ was using (possibly abusing) CII narcotics for some time. If his death was indeed due to a narcotic overdose and with the previous information above known, his rapid response kit should have contained a supply of Narcan which would have immediately reversed the narcotic effects he was suffering from (respiratory arrest). Another factor to consider is the AED. Why didn't a high profile MD like him not have one on hand or why wasn't one at MJ's house? These seem so obvious to me being an Paramedic, but didn't phase his doctor one bit I guess.
• Constance: The attorney for Michael Jackson said he did NOT administer Demerol or Oxycontin but NO ONE has asked about MORPHINE!! Ask the attorney...
• Christine: Kiran-you should have asked Dr. Murray's attorney when the last time was that the doctor saw MJ alive! And was he complaining of any illness? I have yet to hear anyone speak about the last time that he was actually seen alive...
• Dennis: What the lawyer for the doctor of M.J stated in his interview does make any sense. I am a paramedic and a CPR and ACLS (Advanced Cardic Life Support) instructor. Did anybody check to see if this doctor has a current CPR card. Everyone in the medical field, even doctors have to renew every two (2) years and ACLS every (1) year. Also if M.J. had a slight pulse, why did the doctor start chest compressions? He should have just done rescue breathing until a pulse was not detectable, and than started chest compressions. Something is wrong!

If you were given the opportunity to speak with the attorney for Jackson’s doctor, what questions would you have for him? Comment here for follow the story.

• John: WOW! The death of Michael Jackson yesterday was a surprise, guess I found out what it means to be in shock because it seemed like a dream until I woke up today and now it is upsetting. I am a 38 yr old man whom I grew up listening to Michael Jackson and even did breakdancing with some of his songs! Now I understand how the Elvis Presley fan felt! What a shock and terrible trajedy

Editor's Note: Wednesday’s American Morning viewers shared their appreciation for CNN’s in-depth coverage of the Iranian protests. Many felt Senator McCain’s opinions about Iran and heath care were no longer significant.

• Alba: Thank you, CNN, for your relentless coverage of the recent Iranian civil unrest. The passionate, non-violent, majority's voice will always echo throughout history. The future generations will hear it! I make a plea to the praying intercessors all over the world. Pray for God's imminent healing of the physical and emotional wounds of the Iranian people!
• Navid: I hear a number of your viewers say that we need to stay out of Iran issues. The thing I want to bring to their attention is that this same regime that the people are fighting is the reason we are bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan. If this regime is ousted the sooner we could have our troops back home.
• Avesta: The Islamic Regime is doing what Islamic Barbarians did 1400 years ago, burn books, hate our history, culture, enslave, rape & kill Persians. we promise they are Arab occupiers and feel nothing about Persians that is why they are sending our oil revenue to Hamas and Hezbollah.

What do you think about Senator McCain’s position on Iran? How do you feel about the viewer asking that the U.S. get involved in the situation?

Editor's Note: American Morning’s Tuesday audience remained committed to President Obama’s position on Iran, with many noting that the GOP was the only faction complaining about his response. Some were very disappointed to see the son of the former Shah of Iran, believing that his father’s dictatorship was the reason the current regime existed.

• Jonathan: When you speculate how Iranians will carry on under the cloud of an illegitimate election, you only have to look at the United States in 2000 when many of us felt the Bush administration was illegitimate. Life went on, but we were eventually victorious in 2008. Truth will eventually win out in Iran. It will happen sooner without U.S. intervention.
• Michael: I cannot believe you are giving lots of publicity to the son of the deposed Shah of Iran. Do you WANT the Iranian regime to stay in power? No one within Iran supports a return to the brutal monarchy of the Shah. The reason Iran has this horrible regime is because the people of Iran revolted against the Shah. The Shah was put in power by the US during the 1953 coup - by giving publicity to the Shah's son, you are SUPPORTING the current regime's claim that the US is meddling in Iran's internal affairs. If you "cover" his attempt to inject himself into the current Iranian political mix, you must emphasize that his father's regime is the REASON the current regime exists and that the regime is sure to seize upon his intervention as further proof that the US wants to re-establish the Shah's dictatorship.
• Dan: The only criticism of Obama's position on the Iran situation has come from McCain and a few other lunatic neo-cons. Yet, CNN consistently makes it sound as if half the country is questioning that position. EVERY expert on Iran, and EVERY credible diplomat has praised the president's stance. When will CNN catch up to the idea that the foreign policy based on belligerence and stupidity of the last administration was a complete disaster? Maybe McCain and Graham can't understand it, but CNN should be able to figure it out.

Many believe that President Obama’s approach to Iran has been appropriate. How do you feel about the GOP’s response? What did you think of the former Shah of Iran’s son speaking out today?

The Iranian election remained the focal point of American Morning’s Friday audience. The GOP was strongly criticized for demanding intervention in Iran, as most respondents recalled the “stolen election” in the United States and the GOP’s silence at that time. President Obama was mostly praised for his careful response to the Iranian election; but others questioned why the U.S. had intervened in the political affairs of countries like China and Northern Ireland, yet allowed this situation to be ignored.

• Sherry: I support Obama's position on the Iran election. Let the internal politics of Iran stay internal. Would we want them interfering in our elections?
• John: Where were the Republican anti Obama people when Bush stole our Election. We should have hit the streets then. And how would they have liked the world sticking there noses in our business. Obama should watch vigilantly what is happening but stay out of there politics.
• Jean-Louis: How interesting that those Republican politicians who are calling for US intervention in Iran are the same ones who said there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, the ones who led the USA into an unnecessary war!
• Bill3: I tend to believe that this is another ploy be the US to start a war that they have no business in. Over the past months there has been harsh criticism from the US on Iran. Now the election is in question?? the country bans press coverage. It is now the top story in America. Try to focus on the real issue good hard working Americans are losing their jobs and homes. America wake up take care of your own backyard first!
• Bill: I love my country, the USA, and I wish freedom for everyone around the world. I understand the concern about Tiananmen Square and now Iran but wonder where was the concern when British Troops fired into peaceful demonstrators in the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland)? As I recall, one of the thirteen unarmed people killed was a thirteen year old boy. No less an American than Gail Sheehy describes this incident as she was there and the boy was standing next to her. Are our allies allowed the type of conduct we condemn in other countries? It really doesn't make much sense to condemn some and not all as the discrepancies are seen all around the world.
• Ginspelts: Where is one of those great inspiring speeches from the President in support of the Iranian people. Maybe the American people will have to take to the streets with their signs in support of the Iranian people. Afterward we are talking about freedom !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As one viewer noted, the U.S. has involved itself in past internal politics with such countries as China and Northern Ireland; should we become involved in Iran’s presidential election?
