Its too bad that Obama and Hillary attended the Bilderberg Groups last meeting. It does not matter who you vote for. The Bilderberg group picks who runs the country. They are not fooling anyone. The young people talk about it all the time.

Its too bad that they will go down in history as just a couple of Bilderberg cronies. Hillary Bilderberg Clinton.

This was his best choice to date.It will bring the party

together even more.I did not think he had it in him, but I was

wrong and I admit it! God Bless America and this administration.

Now we can get on the rebuilding.

Clinton as Secretary of State will bring to the world as good partner to the United State of America. Her Power and her most outstanding job as senator of New York will help out the most to the world as a US Secretary under the Obama Administration. Obama did wonderfully, He's choice was excellent, noone else would do better than Hillary Clinton. I am a canadian citizen who admired the Clinton from the very beginning. How I wish I could see them in person.

Hillary has earned her stripes to be Secretary of State. Her image is positive abroad and she is not naive to the ill will of other nations.

Senator Clinton almost won the Democratic nomination. It seems only right that such a popular senator with indirect experience to oversees communication and connections be given such a coveted post within the Obama camp. The Clintons were popular oversees and this was a wise choice by President-elect Obama. Should he have recruited Sarah Palin, the economy would worsen due to excessive shopping at Nieman, Barney's, and Sachs Fifth Avenue. Hats off to Obama and congratulations Senator Clinton!

America is doomed to be crushed by yet another NWO President and Bilderberg Group, CFR cronies. Thieves all of them, we need to impeach them now while we have a chance.

Let me guess. Obama's answer to unemployment is put us all in the FEMA Concentration Camps and execute us all as enemy combatants under the Patriot Act.

Well, its certainly right about the right time to say George W. Bush has been a colossal failure. No judgement or wisdom shown these past eight apocalyptic years.

A little early to make those kinds of grandiose judgments. Too messianic sounding to me...scary. We'll see after 4 years...or maybe sooner. No doubt there were those who applauded Castro, Hitler, Stalin, and Chairman Mao in the early days.

Anyone still looking for or doubtful of Obama's promise of change is either nostalgic of the Bush years or lacks the mental capacity to understand the promise of change.

The raison d'etre for Obama's campaign wasn't to eliminate fossils of Nixonian, Reagan, Clintonite or Bushite bureaucrats from Washington, but rather to bring people of different political backgrounds together to find PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS to the issues that have plagued us for decades.

Sure, there are people who hate the Clintons and wish they would just go away....but, the dire nature of our problems require Obama to bring in whomever is ready to solve problems.

I've been listening to rightwing talk radio lately and am fascinated by the lack of real Obama outrage coming from Rush or Hannity. Even the hate mongers are running out of hate for Obama.

I'm happy for our country, I'm excited about the future and I've never prayed for a politician in my life before, but Obama has a line or two every night when I thank God for the day.

He won the right to have the advisors he wants, give them to him
