Bill Clinton is "OVERSHADOWING" his wife. This was displayed when he attempted to defend Sen. Clinton's comments about former President LBJ, on Black radio. I felt the anger from him, across the airways, and as a Black voter, the vibe I received from former President Clinton, was "I stood by you N....., and now you're turning your backs on us.....so what if Barack Obama is Black, you owe me". For us, kill your dream!

I don't like Barack Obama. I don't see why people are mezmerized by him. I see coldness in him. I can't feel his soul. I think many American, too, lack a soul, so they are mezmerized. People must wake up from the zombie state. Obama has no experience to be president. He has no humility. He is not for real.

I'd like to begin by stating Eleanor probably completed this article amidst an argument with herself. That argument clearly a heated internal fist versus fist debacle about the lack of journalistic integrity she should have shown or the lack thereof she feels was appropriate when writing this article. One thing that can be said it was probably deeper than that of any politically charged set or rants from Hillary or Barack. At least both those candidates understand that their cause is definative. Eleanor you should have come across as neutral. Plain and simple. Instead you allowed the reader, by the title of this piece, to engage in something not worth giving a ring to. If this article were posted on the Obama website it still would be questioned by those who concededly agree with the notion that presidential politics is a two way street. That being said Obama has layed his arguments and used them for a cause. As did Hillary. Now we need to know if there is one candidate over the other that has deliberately given us a series of controlled lies. I think we can say they all have. That leaves us with the one who can tell the better truth.

With all do respect ,Eleanor the author and Obama supporter, needent speak one-sided unless this was an article posted on the Obama website. Truly there are different sides to each story. Hillary supporter or Obama supporter alike. To benefit from writing an article based solely on personal feelings should be stated as such. It seems cotrived that this article actually steered towards the direction of Obama rather than the direction that gave us a fork in the road. That fork allowing us to choose a direction based on a double-sided argument feasted on each candidates techniques. Congratulations on amending the art of articles. Now I wish you luck in proving the public's desire to believe you. So far the latest voting contests show they do not.

Nothing or nobody can ever unite the Democrats. That is the way it has been for all of their History and this disunity is what makes them a great party and has brought such benefit to this nation. In the words of Will Rogers "I belong to no organized political party. I am a Democrat." or as the old joke goes "if two Democrats are in a room and they find they agree on something, then one will demand that the other change his mind." Disagreement is the stength of the party and the louder and more strident it is the more the nation is benefitted. When only one viewpoint is allowed as with the Republicans, then we have no opportunity to find the best solution and the path that will be most advantageous to our nation. If you look at the current set of empty suited Neanderthals parading across the Republican stage and arguing about who can drop the most bombs or cut the most taxes you realize how little they have to offer the nation and the world. The Democrats on the other hand fight about everything from war to education to medical policy to jaywalking and each candidate is allowed to give his or her viewpoint an airing so we know in our minds which is best for us. If I were a Republican I would neither know or care which one was the nominee as they are all the same. As a Democrat I have the luxury of choosing Hillary as my candidate, but would be comfortable with Obama or Edwards and probably the others. I am grateful to the Democratic Party for giving me that choice and for making different views available in aiding me to make it. Who care who wins the Republican Party nomination; McCain, Romney, Paul, Huckabee etc; no choice. Except maybe for Paul but he's living in the 19th Century when the country had onlt 20 milllion inhabitants and wants to take us back there. That makes him an option as aginst all the others who are living in this century.

Go Hillary!

Do not go very far to see the depth of Obama -- a man claiming Regan changing the trajectory. What a croc? The " trickle down" theory , that was once denounced by his own VP, Bush; the man's policy led to wider gap of income between the rich and the poor; left more people on welfar roll and without medical benifits. Fox news is no worse than these curve balls. Besides, people can think for themselve even when they write big blogs blo

Barack Obama's Plan on Education

Early Childhood Education
Zero to Five Plan: Obama's comprehensive "Zero to Five" plan will provide critical support to young children and their parents. Unlike other early childhood education plans, Obama's plan places key emphasis at early care and education for infants, which is essential for children to be ready to enter kindergarten. Obama will create Early Learning Challenge Grants to promote state "zero to five" efforts and help states move toward voluntary, universal pre-school.
Expand Early Head Start and Head Start: Obama will quadruple Early Head Start, increase Head Start funding and improve quality for both.
Affordable, High-Quality Child Care: Obama will also provide affordable and high-quality child care to ease the burden on working families.
K-12
Reform No Child Left Behind: Obama will reform NCLB, which starts by funding the law. Obama believes teachers should not be forced to spend the academic year preparing students to fill in bubbles on standardized tests. He will improve the assessments used to track student progress to measure readiness for college and the workplace and improve student learning in a timely, individualized manner. Obama will also improve NCLB's accountability system so that we are supporting schools that need improvement, rather than punishing them.
Make Math and Science Education a National Priority: Obama will recruit math and science degree graduates to the teaching profession and will support efforts to help these teachers learn from professionals in the field. He will also work to ensure that all children have access to a strong science curriculum at all grade levels.
Address the Dropout Crisis: Obama will address the dropout crisis by passing his legislation to provide funding to school districts to invest in intervention strategies in middle school strategies such as personal academic plans, teaching teams, parent involvement, mentoring, intensive reading and math instruction, and extended learning time.
Expand High-Quality Afterschool Opportunities: Obama will double funding for the main federal support for afterschool programs, the 21st Century Learning Centers program, to serve one million more children.
Expand Summer Learning Opportunities: Obama's "STEP UP" plan addresses the achievement gap by supporting summer learning opportunities for disadvantaged children through partnerships between local schools and community organizations.
Support College Outreach Programs: Obama supports outreach programs like GEAR UP, TRIO and Upward Bound to encourage more young people from low-income families to consider and prepare for college.
Support English Language Learners: Obama supports transitional bilingual education and will help Limited English Proficient students get ahead by holding schools accountable for making sure these students complete school.
