  We have often heard him refer to himself as "the son of a teen aged mother". Since she met his father in college, she had to have been at least 18 years old, hardly the typical "teen aged mother". He was raised not by father or mother, actually, but by his mother's parents. For all the ridicule Hillary has taken for her book "It Takes A Village", it is a good thin, indeed, Barack had a village to raise him, even if it was only a white one that he felt he had to deny. This is one big Public Relations campaign by the DNC and the media.

  Thank you for this acknowledgement of Hillary. A small sampling of how she has spent her 60 years of life. I am grateful to her for all she has done on behalf of children and all the rest of us. I am proud of her and her effort to enable government to improve the lives of people. I will always respect her for this campaign, for her Solutions for America which will be co-opted by others, and for the dignity, humor, and strength she has shown. The woman is a Contender!

  One more thing: He needs to help raise all these kids that have been whipped into a fanatic frenzy over him by his campaign and teach them how to be respectful, how to win, how to lose, how to play the game, how to stay interested, how to better represent him and clean up their mouths. The Blogspheres indicate they do not know what elections are, civics, just how to idolize the interest of the moment. They turn me off and I will not support a cause like that. I am not interested in voting for this fanaticism and I could care less anymore what impact that has in November and thereafter. The media can fix that, too.
