Chelsea Come Lately

HRC's run for the presidency, gives me hope that a woman might, just break the ultimate glass ceiling. Mothers will be able to tell their daughters, "You can be anything, you want, even President of the United States," and it will be true. Talk about change! Everything changes, if a woman becomes President of the United States. Perhaps, it will help to reduce some of the gender bias, that exists in the U.S., and around the world.

She is so qualified for this position. She knows healthcare, inside and out. Her policy work with healthcare and education issues over the years gives her a deep insight and committment towards improving the lives of people. During her years as First Lady of Arkansas, she was the first wife of a governor, who held a job. And, yes, she received bad press and criticism for doing this, but she kept doing it, anyway. She was the first female law partner in the Rose law firm. This was a first, in Arkansas. While she was First Lady of Arkansas, she worked to improve the education programs, and these programs exist today, and have been implemented in other states. She also did policy work for improving healthcare for children. Along the way, she has made mistakes, which I believe she has learned from.

Foreign policy issues are not foreign to her. She has served on the Armed Services Committee in the Senate, and has experience with policy issues. During her years of First Lady, she worked on improving human rights issues, breast cancer awareness, HIV/AIDS research, which gave her the opportunity and experience of traveling to many different countries, and interacting with all levels of people.

Most of all, she is tough, and knows her own mind. The gender bias she has faced during this primary season has been mind boggling, but she keeps focused and working towards her goal.

People talk about her being divisive, but during her senate work, she has worked across party lines, and has earned the respect of her fellow senators. It is important to realize the good work she has done. She has demonstrated her competence many, many times.

This gives me inspiration and hope for change. She has been a change agent, her entire life.

To TexasgakL Look who is talking about hating. I only hate the Clintons ...you seem to hate your race. SHAME ON YOU.... But you know what... The way you talk about Obama...you have made me change my mind ... I am voting Republican. Your the idiot... I hope some day you learn to like your own race.
I really wanted Colin Powell to run but I guess you would have a probem with him too as he is also a black man. Because I disagree with you - you think I am acting like a child. You sound like all of the other people that like Hillary ... If you disagree with her... you are totally wrong. The media has always given Hillary a free pass. They don't seem to mention that the black woman she just made head of her campaign was the same broad who broke into a office a number of years ago and stole papers for Hillary and Bill and then those papers misteriously disappeared. Look it up... You will see what I mean. There has always been . It seems you don't care if the media goes easy on HIllary...but boy let them say or do something good for her opponent and all hell breaks loose. Hillary uses Chelsea when it suits them. When you are running for an office or you are President, your whole family is fair game. You are old enough to remember JFK. They even made a comic record of his whole family. He never cried about it... took it with a grain of salt. Hillary "cires" about everythihg. What a leader she would make for our Military....But as I say thanks to you and everyone else who has talked agains Obama.... I am switching parties this time...which I have never done before. I will be voting for the Republican... I guess there are too many questions on Obama... and you know my feelings on Hilary. I will post no more comments, Texasgal... You are an idiot and I want nothing more to do with you.

FOR ONCE THE COUNTRY HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO ELECT A WOMAN NOT ONLY WITH HIGH INTELLECTUAL ABILITIES, BUT WITH GENUINE COMMON SENCE. SHE HAS A UNIQUE UNDERSTANDING OF PROBLEMS FACING OUR COUNTRY ALONG WITH SOLID SOLUTIONS. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT MEDIA PUNDITS INVENT SITUATIONS TO BRING ADVERSE CRITICISM ABOUT INSIGNIFICENT SITUATIONS AND TAKE CHEAP SHOTS AT HER AND HER FAMILY. THEY HAVE REDUCED A FORMER SUCCESSFUL PRESIDENT TO A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN STATUS BY OVER CRITICIZING HIM AND TWISTING HIS WORDS WHEN HE EXERCIZES HIS RIGHT TO HELP HIS SPOUSE IN HER CAMPAIGN JUST AS HER OPPONENT 'S SPOUSE DOES FOR HER HUSBAND IN HIS CAMPAIGN . OBAMA'S MINISTERIAL APPROACH TO HIS AUDIENCES WHILE INSPIRATIONAL ENDS THERE UNLIKE HILLARY HE OFFERS PROMISES WITH NO DEPTH OR SOLUTIONS TO OUR PROBLEMS. COMPARED TO HILLARY THIS MEDIA GENERATED CELEBERTY IS A JOHNNY COME LATELY WHEN IT COMES TO SOLVING OUR MANY SERIOUS PROBLEMS. SHE HAS THE EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE, WISDOM AND ABILITY TO MASTER THE MANY TASKS OUR COUNTRY HAS BEFORE IT. ANY PRESIDENT WILL HAVE A HORRIBLE TASK CORRECTING THE EIGHT YEARS OF BUSH'S ENEPT REIGN. IT WILL NOT BE A MATTER OF WAVING A WAND AND HOPE WE WILL SOLVE ALL PROBLEMS , 'BRING BOTH PARTIES TOGETHER ,'BRING PEACE , BRING OUR TROUPS HOME ,TAKE CARE OF OUR DEVALUATING DOLLAR, INFLATION, RISING COST OF ALL UTILITIES, DEPRESSED ECONOMY, REGAINING THE RESPECT OF OTHER NATIONS.HILLARY'S HEALTH CARE IS THE BEST. IT IS A SIN FOR THE GREATEST NATION IN THE WORLD HAS NO UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE. IT DESTROYS LIVES EACH AND EVERY DAY .WHEN HARD WORKING PEOPLE LOSE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE TO PAY FOR A LOVED ONE'S HEALTH CARE. ALL THESE THINGS HILLARY KNOWS THE ROPES AS TO HOW TO IMPLEMENT THEM. PERHAPS OBAMA WILL MAKE A GOOD CANDIDATE IN ANOTHER EIGHT YEARS, BUT NOT YET COMPARED TO HILLARY.

Holy crap Texasgal and charleymcgee make me ashamed to be a Democrat. Here's the deal - Hillary and Barack are almost identical policy-wise, and are both decent human beings. Campaigns get rough, but if you don't support Obama as the nominee, Texasgal, or if you don't support Clinton charleymcgee, we are handing the presidency, the country, to the Republicans for 4-8 more years. This country and the world can't take that. So get over yourselves, get over this divisive politics of personality, and vote in the general election for a set of policies that would improve your lives and the state of our union. The alternative is to stand on 'principle' by electing a Republican who will continue to make the rich richer at the expense of the suffering middle class, and who will support a foreign policy that is ruinous of America's standing in the world. Grow up.

"But the average college student can't relate to her, because she seems so intellectual."

I think that is the saddest statement I've read and what a commentary on our educational system. I know I talk to college students and am amazed at their lack of basic knowledge and skills. Their ignorance is frightening. What in the world are they paying for at college today?

The Clintons are no good, lying snakes with there own agenda....Some of the comments on here are true about the love em and leav'em theory. She could give a rats behind about the common folks. Her and her husband cant be trusted to run the country when they cant even run there own marriage. Honestly, Hillary had no clue about Monica running in and out of the oval office?..What does that say about whats was going on in our Whitehouse....And ppl want more of that crap going on? And they are "pimping" out there daughter they are despratly trying to put a goody goody family spin on everything....Its just sick.

Why does Shuster get suspended when everyone else at MSNBC utter the most vile and degrading statements about Bush and any other Republican and their family members?

Why hasn't MSNBC "suspended" Oberman--want to talk about an complete and consistent ass hole.

Chelsea put herself out there and she is not a child. The comment was about Hillary putting her daughter out front to beg for votes.

MSNBC has taken up where Air American failed.

Will everybody, especially the media, PLEASE stop gushing all over Obama! He's a pretty cover, but when you open the book...there's really not that much...I would like to know....what CHANGE has he accomplished besides being a community activist and sponsoring that swiss cheese ethics reform bill? I don't mean to belittle his accomplishment, but when you compare it to Hillary's lifetime of work...there is no comparison. PEOPLE...be informed when you vote....read their resumes before you hire!
