She never fails to give me inspiration. I am looking forward to hearing her speak. It will be a sad day for women everywhere if she is not on the ticket as VP. I can't believe that Obama is considering those 3 boring white guys as VP. Obama not choosing her for VP just looks like sour grapes. Either that or he's a coward and thinks he must have a token white guy as VP in order to win. Same old Washington politics, nothing changing. Always trying to prevent a women from excelling. These guys can't bring half of what Hillary could to this ticket. If she is not on the ticket, Obama will lose my vote also. He almost already did when he called white women racists. I am not a racist and I really resent someone who doesn't even know me calling me that. After comments like that, I might be racist however in the future. After this election, I have come to distrust anything blacks do. I will vote, because if I write in a name, my vote won't be counted. It will just be for the other guy. Hillary is my Hero also.

At least now maybe we can have someone mention the issues that are affecting the average American. Obama is too busy spending time in Europe running around trying to make connections yet he doesn't want to let anyone know how we is going to solve the probelms of high unemployment, foreclosures, health insurance for all, jobs going overseas, the recession, the circus in Washington that the Republicans are going to leave behind, high oil prices and all of the problems that our next President will inherit. Senator Clinton had plans to handle these problems and over 18 million of us voted for her. Since Obama wants to run around and be the spokesperson for the country, he needs to leave Senator Clinton in charge to handle the domestic issues since she has been the one who is interested in helping the American people. He has yet to shown any interest in helping anyone but himself. Thank God. At least now maybe we can have someone mention the issues that are affecting the average American.

If the Democratic party were to do something like that at the convention, it would implode and the Democrats would be done for good. I'm not saying that Senator Clinton isn't qualified, as she most definnitley is, but she lost the primary - the same rules that President Clinton won the primary as all other Democratic nominees. This was her nomination to lose. She had a lead over every other candidate. Her campaign let her down and let Senator Obama build up momentum. By the time she REALLY started campaigning, it was pretty much too late. He had built an insurmountable lead. Anyway, bravo for her speaking at the convention. It shows she understands the importance of this election, despite how she may personally feel. Bravo.

You know, honestly, you PUMA people are probably one of the reasons that she's not in the front-running for VP. BO has enough to reason to worry about his safety from some right-wing nutjob.

He won't give her a second thought in his cabinet and her positive goals won't be actualized. If Obama is elected, I believe Hillary will be given a better position in his cabinet and continue to have a positive influence in our government. It sure would be nice to see support for what these two candidates stand for--a united democratic party. As a 55 year old white femal I believe both candidates fought (sometimes unscrupulously) to win the nomination. They both had some very positive and negative points. Although I have always been an Obama supporter, I gave Hillary credit for many aspects of her campaign. Keeping within a budget certainly wasn't one of them and I felt that was a very important point in this election when our economy is in such poor shape. Continueing to spend at such a rate even when her campaign was unable to pay their bills to the vendors was pretty frightening--especially when it was highly unlikely that she could statistically beat Obama. Be that as it may, she is not the nominee and let's face it, if she were VP, Bill would be trying to run the country--what president would want that. In addition, the Clintons do bring alot of baggage to the picture. So let's unite and I'm guessing that if elected, Obama will give her a very important position and she can continue to have a positive impact in our government. If he is not elected, do you really think that McCain will give her much thought? If McCain is elected, do you honestly think that will help Hillary.

That is up to the DNC. And you will vote for McCain who has nothing in common politically with Hillary and everything in common with Bush? So that means you are a Hillary supporter strictly because she is a woman and not because of her ideals as a Democrat. No real Democrat would ever vote for McCain. That doesn't make any sense. And if you think the Clintons have not gone back on their word you know nothing about their history. Not to mention their history of scandal with shady individuals. So we really want more of the same in the white house? Do we really want a president or a vp that couldn't even manage their own campaign finances and is so in debt she has to beg for money from regular Americans. Sounds like an irresponsible leader. So go ahead...vote for McCain. He will not win unless he steals the election with the help of other shady people that live in the past just like Bush stole the election from Gore. And to Susie...We need a president that DOES care about being a citizen of the world because we all live on the same planet and have to share it. If the world embraces Obama that is GOOD for AMERICA. Don't you realize this? We cannot be an isolated country. The Clintons were the ones that helped give all of our American jobs away overseas. Because of them and Bush our economy has crumbled, all of our industry is now overseas. Obama wants to bring it back home. Under McCain even more American companies will be allowed to go overseas and more Americans will lose their jobs. You are a true patriot apparently.... You people need to get the facts. Hey Kentucky- Obama doesn't pick who speaks. That is up to the DNC.

So we really want more of the same in the white house?

Do we really want a president or a vp that couldn't even manage their own campaign finances and is so in debt she has to beg for money from regular Americans. Sounds like an irresponsible leader.

So go ahead...vote for McCain. He will not win unless he steals the election with the help of other shady people that live in the past just like Bush stole the election from Gore.

And to Susie...We need a president that DOES care about being a citizen of the world because we all live on the same planet and have to share it. If the world embraces Obama that is GOOD for AMERICA. Don't you realize this? We cannot be an isolated country. The Clintons were the ones that helped give all of our American jobs away overseas. Because of them and Bush our economy has crumbled, all of our industry is now overseas. Obama wants to bring it back home. Under McCain even more American companies will be allowed to go overseas and more Americans will lose their jobs. You are a true patriot apparently....

You people need to get the facts.
