No Traction

tvm1963 great idea about taking care of our domestic issues. One of our BIG domestic issues at this time is gas prices, if we don't help take care of foriegn affairs, where would you propse we get our oil? From our wells, you say? They are selling our american gas to India, because they pay a better price. While everone is listening to the issues discussed by the candidates, and what they will, and promise to do, ask yourself this question... Will they have the power to make these changes? Won't it have to go though both houses? My opinion is that we shouldn't worry so much about who is in the White House, but maybe worry about who we put on Capital Hill in the Houses.

did obama's wife say "she finally loves america", what if he loses, will she take it back, or will there be riots in the street as mayor wilde has stated if the superdelegates go for hillary, the excitement builds, what will the media say, what will carl rove do is just as important, after all, iran waits for that cloud of smoke bush keeps promising them

Obama is DEFINATELY the choice... Clinton needs a wake up call, I SERIOUSLY DOUBT the president is the hardest job in the country! C'mon.... Way to put down the working class and say we are inferior. YES WE CAN!!!

All attacks against Hillary is a weakness of Husein's mercenary army, paid by Oprah's billion Dollars, dirty money from a crazy and degenerated press and media TV. I hope the people from Ohio, Texas and Penn will realize the pure truth and will change the election trend which driving America on the wrong and catastrophic way fo this Nation.!! Because it is all about the race and gender intoxicated propaganda !!

I think it's unfortunate that Democratic America has ceased looking at the issues and the specific messages and qualifications of the candidates purporting to best confront those issues. Voting America appears to be comforted by the hypocrisy that Obama speeches sound like college hall council speeches with particular emphasis on race relations. Just a few months prior to the Wisconsin primary, Michelle Obama told Chris Matthews that "... Black America will eventually wake up." Meaning? Race counts. Moreso than any other issue on the touted platform, moreso than any other diverse subgroup in America contributing to votes and Obama's payroll. However, America DID rail against Clinton when she praised a women's college for the opportunity to reflect on her gender as a point of strength. No mention has been made again of the advantage of being a female in a primarily male-dominated race for the White House. Why, America, is it acceptable to focus on racial votes exclusively? Does that not keep us divided on a broad scale? Senator Bob Johnson has proclaimed his support for Clinton for many reasons, one of which that she encourages all elements of voting populations, and does not seek specific votes from specific populations, thereby excluding the importance of other racial and minority group votes. And age? Can Obama say that he identifies with aging Americans, disabled Americans, Asian Americans, White Americans? And, can he acutely understand and redirect current policy on prescription coverage, managed care reform, and social security issues? The Clinton campaign, again, has deliberately not made age, as with gender and race and orientation, etc., a voting selling point to specific populations. This double-standard which Democratic America has eagerly accepted promotes further problems and, as of yet, has NOT been solution-oriented. Have potential voters watched the debates and read between the lines? Clinton speaks, not in 'double-talk', but solution-based diplomatic terms which seeks to be inclusive of all voter issues and voter characteristics, and whose grammar and concepts obviously appear to elude Obama supporters. How sad that we would perpetuate the Bush legacy under a new party name.

I believe words that are sincere. Obama's word are spoken from the heart. When someone truly believes the words that they are speaking, they will make those things happen given the chance. I prefer this to the other candidates that just say what they want us to hear and then do the opposite once elected. At the very least you can trust Obama means what he says.

I UNDERSTAND HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT EXPERIENCE BUT REALLY DOES IT MATTER HOW MUCH TIME A PERSON HAS BEEN IN POLITICS BECAUSE IF THATS THE CASE BUSH SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN IN OFFICE TWICE .HE HAS BEEN IN POLITICS A LONG TIME AND MESSED UP TRAGICELY TWICE. SO TIME SHOULD NOT BE THE MAIN REASON FOR NOT VOTING FOR SOMEONE DIFFERENT

oh do i see another bush smoke cloud in the form of as many lies as the media has dumped on hillary clinton, and her husband, vote obama, just what we need another four years of incompetence, and rhetoric, you all deserve it with your stupidity

Don't you idiots realize that Dems or Republicans are not for you. They are for themselves only. They both disappoint me in every possible way. We need to take back our government like Thomas Jefferson said we could when the government becomes an enemy to the people. Here's my wish: Every elected representative in Washington gets to serve for six years and then they have to go back to a real job. No more of these lifer jokers like we have now--both democrat and republican.

PLEASE!!!! Let's not vote for a candidate based on the fact that he/she will be "THE FIRST"!! Vote for the candidate that you feel will help this country and better our children's future. I understand that it may be a pride thing, like you said, but pride is not going to run this country, a good candidate will. I am a voting democrat and I like both candidates, but I will make an informed decision based on their views, etc... not based on pride alone.

Not 4 Barack ....... If Hillary could handle anything that is thrown out at her........why did she not thank Wisconsin in her speech last night........ she sent Chelsea to Hawaii on her behalf...... why didn't she thank the small crowd of people that believed in the bull she's been spewing.... why not thank them.... She didn't thank them because she has no class. She didn't get her way so now she's done with the state.... Barack is here in Dallas and there is a large crowd of supporters there........ I guarantee she will not sweep accross THE GREAT STATE OF TEXAS!!!!!
