I was seriously rooting for his Candidacy this year, but during the debates he seemed so angry and desperate. He has good ideas about restoring the middle class. He should focus more on what will do for America, and less on personal attacks and name calling. I can't believe he's hinting about Hilary getting out of the race. He's disillusioned because that's not going to happen until the last primary state has voted. The Clintons are persistent, well financed, and connected she is not going anywhere anytime soon. Elections should be about ideas, visions, and inspirations. None of which has been displayed by any of the candidats but Barack O. I loved Edward when he was running for President in '04.

BAD comparison. Choosing Hillary is choosing the executive's wife. That's al lshe was, that's all she'll ever be. 8 years of being married to the president does NOT count as experience and does NOT qualify one to be president. By that measure, Laura Bush has the same experience as Hillary, and Nancy Reagan has MORE experience than Hillary. So why don't we elect one of them?

It is sad to read the comments on these blogs or should I say criticisms of Candidates. And I have to wonder after two terms with Bush as a leader how Americans can vocalize so much criticism for Democratic Candidates! And especially Hillary Clinton! What is it about Hillary that turns some Americans into raving maniacs? Given the choices among Republican Candidates I would think she would be a breath of fresh air! I hope you can all put your pettiness to bed and focus on the good of your Nation. And I hope all will be wise enough to bypass the Republican Contenders ie: Bush Clones and go for the Gusto this time around. Gusto ie: Intelligence, Capability, Leadership Ability, Experience in International Diplomacy and a command of the English Language. When I see some chanting Ron Paul, Edwards, Huckabee, Guiliani, Thompson and Romney it gives me Shivers! Get a Grip! And Obama might be intelligent, bright, and talk a good talk but he certainly hasn't got the political experience and hasn't been around long enough to lead a Nation. Maybe next time around after an experienced leader cleans up the Huge Mess George is leaving behind. I wonder if Americans fully realize the damage Bush has done and just how large a task it is going to be for the next President to put all in order again? No I won't be voting as I'm Canadian. But I will be suffering the affects like the rest of the world if Americans make another serious blunder like they did when they elected Bush TWICE! I couldn't fathom how he got elected once! It still boggles my mind! Please do the research and give serious thought to your decision. I'm with you Georgina, Canada.

He signed "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" into policy! I STILL don't get why America will stand by as these Presidents write policies discriminating against our own people! America stood by for decades as blacks and women were discriminated against. NOW America is standing by as gays are being discriminated against. Why are even the democrats who "stand for liberal rights" standing by as gay people's rights are being stripped away from them?!? Would you have stood by as they added to the Constitution that blacks were not allowed to get married? Would you have stood by as they added to policy that you can't be black and be in the military? How about women? What if they said women were not allowed to serve in the military? Or they wanted to add to the Constitution that women were not allowed to work? Or that women were only allowed to give birth to ONE child and no more! How about we ammend the Constitution to state that two people should only have sex to have children?! Ya know, the Bible states that sex is not for enjoyment but to bring new life. If we can use the Bible's 'policies' on marriage, how about on sex, or women's rights?! People, we are humans! We're your sons, daughters, mothers & fathers, uncles, aunts, cousins. We are your doctors, lawyers, politicians (Sen Craig...), preachers, teachers, servers, and garbagemen. We cross racial divides! We cross sexual divides! We have proudly and quietly served in our military for hundreds of years! We DON'T want special rights! We DON'T want additional rights! ALL WE ARE ASKING IS EQUAL RIGHTS! How is my choosing to be with my partner for the rest of my life any different than you being with yours for the rest of your life? Why should he & I build a life together, that at death is taken away by the state?! Can you imagine being told, as your loved one lays dieing on a hospital bed, that you can't go in and see them? Can you imagine the 401K plan that your loved one has poured his/her money into for decades being taken away? How about not being able to roll their 401K plan (which hetero couples are allowed to do upon the death of their loved ones) into yours? How about hearing you can't adopt a child because you're not a real couple? God, what would happen if couples who mixed race (1 white and 1 black for example) were told they couldn't adopt a child because their race is not the same?! STOP voting for discrimination! Think about how your candidate effects America as a whole! A President who supports discrimination being added to our Constitution can only bring more shame to America as a whole! Canadians wrote songs about us "Proud To Be An American"...now our musicians are saying "Yeah I'm embarrassed that he's from Texas too!!" to foreigners. My how times have changed!! Vote NO to discrimination! Vote YES to change!! wil – Clinton didn't want gays to serve openly in the military any more than Bush does. He signed "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" into policy! I STILL don't get why America will stand by as these Presidents write policies discriminating against our own people! America stood by for decades as blacks and women were discriminated against. NOW America is standing by as gays are being discriminated against. Why are even the democrats who "stand for liberal rights" standing by as gay people's rights are being stripped away from them?!? Would you have stood by as they added to the Constitution that blacks were not allowed to get married? Would you have stood by as they added to policy that you can't be black and be in the military? How about women? What if they said women were not allowed to serve in the military? Or they wanted to add to the Constitution that women were not allowed to work? Or that women were only allowed to give birth to ONE child and no more! How about we ammend the Constitution to state that two people should only have sex to have children?! Ya know, the Bible states that sex is not for enjoyment but to bring new life. If we can use the Bible's 'policies' on marriage, how about on sex, or women's rights?!

People, we are humans! We're your sons, daughters, mothers & fathers, uncles, aunts, cousins. We are your doctors, lawyers, politicians (Sen Craig...), preachers, teachers, servers, and garbagemen. We cross racial divides! We cross sexual divides! We have proudly and quietly served in our military for hundreds of years! We DON'T want special rights! We DON'T want additional rights! ALL WE ARE ASKING IS EQUAL RIGHTS! How is my choosing to be with my partner for the rest of my life any different than you being with yours for the rest of your life? Why should he & I build a life together, that at death is taken away by the state?! Can you imagine being told, as your loved one lays dieing on a hospital bed, that you can't go in and see them? Can you imagine the 401K plan that your loved one has poured his/her money into for decades being taken away? How about not being able to roll their 401K plan (which hetero couples are allowed to do upon the death of their loved ones) into yours?

Edwards should just hand over what little cash he has to Obama, along with an endorsement. So should Hillary, who is in an impossible position. She is pitted against the good guy, which automatically makes her the bad guy. If Bill Clinton was the Elvis of polititians, Obama is the Hendrix. The enthusiasm he generates is unprecedented.

Someone who thinks she is entitled to be President moves to New York, confident that there enough brainless liberals (mind you, there are a lot of intelligient, thoughtful ones, but not in this state) who would elect her and would ignore the fact that she's done nothing except talk for the vast majority of her time here and then, as Barrister4Hillary notes, push for her to become President. I almost always vote Republican, but am willing to give any Democrat a fair shake. Al Gore would have and still could be a great President and so could Joe Biden and Dodd, for examples. Obama seems quite impressive and it does seem he's far more capable of accomplishing what Clinton only talks about and he's definitely more honest than her; I suppose only a barrister could accept and ignore her shameless attempt to buy and lie her way to votes; the people's money should not be used in any way to buy votes and her unwillingness to answer simple questions is, or should be, an insult to all of intelligience. In fact, Obama's honesty is perhaps his greatest asset, I think, something Clinton may be unable to overcome and if she tries her dirty tricks on him, it will sink whatever chances she feels she still has or is entitled to. I think her free ride has nearly reached the end of the track. I'm not entirely comfortable with Obama's opinions, but I am impressed wih him and hope that he sticks to a clean campaign as the similarly straight-talking Huckabee and McCain have indicated they will, as well.
