hillary

hillary clinton is a liar and shes so stupid.

Madam President

as it has been said before,experience counts.and Obama does have the making of the office someday, BUT! not since President Kennedy has a fourty something. man ever ran for the most important office in the country, and try to convince us how qualified he is. Well he's no Jack Kennedy.and to use the fact that hes black their for he knows the street or the people is bull!You've been there and theirs no education like experience. or the preverberal school of hard knocks.

The republicans will have donations hand over fist!

I am e republican, but I would vote for Obama, I spoke of him to my brother over 3 years ago and said to watch him. Hillary's own Democratic party does not even want her to be the candidate, the Republicans will rally around the fact we dislike her so much. I even notice that republicans are more on Obama's case these days, hoping that Hillary can pull it out, they know that Obama has a better chance of beating them (even the exit polls think so by a large margin) Well if Hillary get's the nomination even I will donate money to the cause and I have never done so in my life.

Democratic party?

In this great country of ours Pride seems to be growing at a faster pace than either the economy or achievements. I love this country and would love to see this country get back to the way it was founded. Great leaders showing great leadership and American people once again working for the future. Among the poorest people in the US are still some of the richest people in the world. We should step back and look at ourselves and say what do we want for our children pride or the actual achievements that having the great benefit of living in the US provides for us. Look at what we have become. As country we police the world on fairness and equal rights yet in our entire history never have we had a female or a black president. Imagine yourself as a citizen in a poor third world country looking at what we claim to stand for. There are many things in which this country and its citizens can pe proud and should be, but there are also many things in which we should be ashamed. The thought that we use only military and financial means to change the thoughts of others in the world can only work for so long. I love this country and would like to see some kind of change in the way we use our influence on others. Remember everyone responds better by example than by force.

Cute joke

If you use Jeff Foxtworthy's tagline...you might be an idiot

No Rodham

Senator Clinton, who has served only one full term (6yrs.), and another year campaigning, has managed to author and pass into law, (20) twenty pieces of legislation in her first six years.

These bills can be found on the website of the Library of Congress, but to save you trouble, I'll post them here for you.

1. Establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site.

2. Support the goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech Month.

3. Recognize the Ellis Island Medal of Honor.

4. Name courthouse after Thurgood Marshall.

5. Name courthouse after James L. Watson.

6. Name post office after Jonn A. O'Shea.

7. Designate Aug. 7, 2003, as National Purple Heart Recognition Day.

8. Support the goals and ideals of National Purple Heart Recognition Day.

9. Honor the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on the bicentennial of his death.

10. Congratulate the Syracuse Univ. Orange Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.

This is NOT presidential law passing. It is NOT her turn. It is NOT about time we had a woman president. She is the LAST woman qualified to be president.

I live in N.Y. she has done NOTHING as a senator for our state. She would make an abysmal president. She is presently facing the indictment of criminal finance campaign law violations. Search "Peter Paul."

clinton scum

-hillary’s national health care attempt failed miserably. That legislation attempt sums up her “experience.”

- hillary and bill were always notoriously anti military. Under the administration of hillary and bill, the %GDP spent on the military hit 3% after 6 yrs. in office. It was the lowest % ratio since before WWII.

-hillary; Speaking in a high school with a bunch kids in NH on 1/5/08, hillary’s BOMBASTIC LIE: “our administration had 5 trillion dollar surplus.” FACT: the national debt was 5 trillion dollars two years into the clinton administration.

-hillary’s on brink of being criminally indicted for campaign fraud charges. You might want to consider these facts when you enter the voting booth.

-hillary sez: “My plan does not create a single new government dept., agency or bureaucracy” hillary on health care. Oh really?!

-hillary: rapist enabler: "My God, I can do it again." – Bill to Juanita Broaddrick before he raped her for second time on April 25, 1978.

-hillary: “You know the job which WE should have done, which should have been our primary focus to find.. you know..Bin Laden and eliminate Al Qaeda. hilliary clinton: 01/28/06 talking with Jane Pauley

clinton scum

hillary: a rapist enabler; search youtube: “Vote Smart: a warning to all women about hillary clinton.” If JUANITA BRODDRICK is lying about Bill Clinton Biting her lip and RAPING her, she’s making a pretty bold accusation. hillary seems to smear quite a few women or “bimbos” as she refers to them, in her book. Are all these women lying?

Who Cares What Bill Did!! A Responce to Jack Smith

Jack,

Although I see the point you are attempting to make, I want to point out that when voters are going to the booth they are NOT voting for BILL CLINTON! As a supporter of what Bill accomplished during his term as president, I fail to see how his accomplishments have anything to do with his wife's run for the White House. It is his wife who is running in this election, not him. I would place my vote with Hilary however I fear that voters are unaware of the (inappropriate) influence of her husband and his prerogatives.

On the other hand Obama is a fairly straightforward type of guy who i do not believe will be swayed by special interest group or solicitors that may influence the Congress. I do understand that his "lack" of experience, in terms of time served, has been interpreted as an issue.

Regardless as an undecided Democrat voter, I hope the debates to come will help all of us (including myself) find out who has the true capability and drive to better this nation.
