Seems just months ago, while her husband was in office, that she was on the "NAFTA bandwagon" telling all of us citizens of the US that we should "embrace this wonderful idea of her husbands." what a mess they continue to be, and why can't the people who support those two take a hard look at both of their motives; as far as I am concerned, they both should go to jael for treason!

Let's all stick to the facts folks and the fact is I listen to both candidates campaign every day on CNN live stream. Sen Obama, to date has not at the end of any stump speech said God Bless America. Sen Obama, can you tell me why it is so difficult for you to say "God Bless America?", you often say God Bless You, why not God Bless America?, Could it be because you truly do empathize with your hatred spewing minister? I would really like it if all the Obama supporters actually listened to Sen Obama's speeches and noted that he never says God Bless America. Talk about talking out of both sides of your mouth.

Not sure what amendments though. It is just too confusing. Clearly, Clintons made big money lobbying for it. So, did Penn. Whether or not this is ethical - or a conflict of interest - is a totally different issue which no one seems to be able to answer.
