This letter is to explain why I am not supporting Senator Barack Obama and am fully supporting Senator Hillary Clinton for President of the United States.

Senator Obama often repeats that he is the candidate for change but what has he done to work for change? Why are most of his political endorsements coming from Washington insiders? This is something to be considered. In addition, he appears to mimic the candidacy of Senator Clinton in spirit but not with substance. Clearly he has not thought the issues through and perhaps {it was thought} given more time and experience, he would emerge as a fine statesperson. But all that has changed since the recent revelations of his twenty-year relationship with Pastor Jeremiah Wright. It is very troubling to realize the influence Wright has had on Obama when it comes to the pastor's anti-American racist beliefs. Any reasonable person would have discontinued this relationship if they did not concur with these views. Senator Obama will only add to the racial divide in this country. Furthermore, his latest comments about the "bitter small-town Pennsylvanians" are in fact "elitist,” “demeaning” and “out of touch”. These are things the Democratic Party I knew never stood for. Consequently, at this most crucial moment in history, our country cannot afford to gamble again with someone who is simply not prepared to take on the enormous responsibilities of Commander-In-Chief.

On the other hand, Senator Clinton has spent her whole life working for change. Change that has improved the quality of life for all Americans by focusing on fairness. She truly cares about our country. Given the current state of our economy, she may very well represent the last chance for this country to avoid social catastrophe. Her lengthy public-service experience has more than prepared her for the presidency. It is the very reason why the greedy powers-that-be are so opposed to her candidacy. It is why some of her primary opponent's donors are part of this opposition. Frankly, those supporting the status quo have never felt so threatened. For this election is a clear choice between those who have never had it so good and those of us who know we can do better. Senator Clinton knows we can do better and her track record reflects that. On Tuesday, May 6, Indiana needs to support Senator Hillary Clinton for President and help get our country back on track.

I agree with Joe. Senator Clinton is a fighter and she has experience. She has been fighting for us her entire career and she has what it takes to revive this country. Please vote smart and vote Clinton.

Barack Obama is to this generation what John F. Kennedy was to mine. The youth and vitality, the charm and disarming smile, the sense of humor and powerful intellect are qualities shared by these men. One was white and one is biracial. We must get beyond that. Vote your heart and mind, not your prejudices.
We know when we hear Barack Obama speak that he is special and perhaps destined for greatness. His messages of hope and change come when we need them most with our critical economic woes and our endless war in Iraq. His is the kind of leadership needed to unite the country as we tackle the problems of ending the war, energy independence, healthcare for all, trade agreements that benefit American workers and sound economic policies that reverse our country’s fall toward economic ruin.
Here is a unique candidate, not beholden to lobbyists and corporate America. We must seize this once in a lifetime opportunity to elect this special and gifted man to the presidency.
Vote for Barack Obama in the primary and again in November.

Mrs. Clinton lied about the Rose Law Firm Papers, accused the Right Wing of falsely accusing her husband of an affair which he lied to her and the American people about on national television, then no apology when the accusations were proven correct. Lied three times about her trip to Bosnia, not once, while campaigning for president, supported free trade with other nations sending our jobs to them but now is against it and wants to keep jobs here.

Her husband has been accused by six women of sexual harrassment and one won a lawsuit against him. He lied to a Grand Jury and lost his law license for five years and was fined twenty five thousand dollars. He approved the sale by Loral of sensitive space and nuclear technology to China and they now have ICBMs that can reach us. She lied on her income taxes and is still waiting for the government to decide whether to prosecute. All this and Hillary still loves Bill and people really want this family back in the White House for four more years. BTW if you have daughters, did you know oral is not sex according to Bill and Hillary loves him in spite of all this and wants to be OUR LEADER with Bill as first man.
She also lied about having a major part in the Irish peace accords which was not true. Yes by all means, put Hillary in the White House. Let's all show the world how gifted we are at making political choices in America.

youth vitality,charm and a disarming smile,and a sense of humor won't get the job done. we need someone committed to the job and that is not freshman Senator Obama. As for the Rose Lawn Law firn the Republicans spent millions of dollars and found no wrong doing on her part. If they had found wrong doing don't think for a second that she would not be in prison. Drinking the BO koolaid will be the undoing of this country. what about the Ayres/Dohrn terrorist connection. BO says he doesn't know them. But he knew then well enough that they held a social at their home for his senate campaign. Better think again if you think BO will cure the economic woes this country faces. but Hillary along with Bill clinton will bring back the middle class.

Hey you, disgusted with our board...You are aware that it's Hillary running for office, not Bill. This is old news, let's talk Obama, OK?? What about Rezko's connection with O, and what about the Saudi connection which I just posted about. Who cares what happened to Hill's hubbt 16 years ago. We need help in this country and bama and McCain will not deliver.

I don't so much care about what Bill did Kaco, I have serious issues with what Hillary did when he did it as well as her lieing about Bosnia, the peace process, being in favor of NAFTA and once she got to Indiana and other states losing jobs, suddenly in favor of keeping jobs here. I think any woman who stays with a man who has the morals of an alley cat then proceeds like most politicians to suck up to the people saying what they want to hear, is not to be trusted. Of course I think most politicans play this game. I actually will vote May 6th for none of the Presidential candidates because I am not sure there are any real honest politicans left. In fact, I am not sure the word honest and politician even belong in the same sentence. Lee Hamilton and Mike Pence may be the only two politicians I have heard of who were pretty honest but then politics is not my strong suit state and nation wise.
The worst combination I can think of however is Billary in the white house again. That is one scary thought. As far as bringing back the middle class, you might want to rethink that as he sold overnights to the rich, pumped big contributions from the likes of John Huang and Charlie Tri, sold top security to China, and his wife said she had a national health care plan for the people but it was actually a government controlled health care plan. Now we all know how well the government has run national plans like medicare, medicaid, social security so does anyone really want them to run your health care? Oh well. This may be the first eleciton where no candidate gets my vote. BTW, she can't legally take him as her vice president thank heaven LOL Good luck on your support for the lady although I think if she is elected, it will be a co presidency for the first man or that is my fear.

Cliff--- You are correct!!! Obama is special, but Special Education is not what we want to hear about.... He never looks anyone in the eyes, which is a sign that he is lying... And how dare you compare this yo-yo to one of the greatest men in our history.. Obama is about change, but the wrong kind of change.. Catering to a certain group of republicans and prejudice blacks is not my idea of a great man.. He is White man first, and a so-called black second.. Just because Obama is a white man in a black man's body, doesn't make him anything other than BI-Racial... He thinks, acts and speaks like a white man, but when he gets around blacks, he tries to woo them with his ghetto acting, ebonic speaking, basketball playing black side.. He is a con artist and everyone should see his motives.. He hangs with the white wealthy and when he wants the black votes, he makes an appearance in the black neighbour hoods.. He is a flip-flopper and I hope the black community sees him as he actually is... Big Grin Remember what Bill Clinton did for the middle class/poor when he was president... Obama will never do this for the poor/middle class... He wil be catering to the wealthy whites that will be pulling his strings ...Kerry-Kennedy- dodd, daschle an so on..... Big Grin

Well Obama may be all that but would you really want Hillary after she stayed with a man who has done to her and her daughter what Bill has? With that kind of decision making ability could we afford to have her "leading" American and upholding our moral values? As for Bill being a champion of the poor and middle class, he catered to the black community for votes and was so good at it they made him an honorary black man. I seem to recall his hanging with the Kennedys on Marthas Vinyard quite a bit and he hung out with and catered to the Hollywood set a lot and sponged off them for campaign funds. Then for large donations, he catered to two Chinese fellows and sold our technology to China compromising our national security by way of Loral. His wife seems to have memory lapse when it comes to him and of course her roll as first lady. She was a war hero in Bosnia landing under fire. Wanting to get elected causes people to conjure up strange memories and forget a lot of things they shouldn't have on both sides of the isle. I am not sure either of them are worth a vote this year and I don't know enough about McCain to comment except he is a war hero. I personally wouldn't vote for Obama or Hillary for President but I did vote for JFK and now it seems he had a lot of "side activities" also. Maybe it is why the Kennedys identify with Bill and Hillary. And of course a book could be written on Teddy boy. Good luck deciding. Why I am not voting for any of the candidates this fall for President. As the good old boys would say, "appears we got slim pickens in these here parts" LOL. Have a great weekend

Truthfighter is posting on every site that he can. Just like I am ..
Obama had a 25 point lead in NC last month. Latest numbers show a 5 to 8 point lead.

I believe a Zapruder film analysis of Obama’s San Francisco remarks is in order.

Watch the video clip again at the link below and listen carefully.

Is he making fun of himself? If so, here's the punch line: “I have a message for people in rural America as a 46 year old black man named Barrack Obama”.
silence , (cue crickets) ... The joke doesn’t work , UNLESS, the underlining understanding between Barrack and his supporters is "rural folks are backward, and maybe even a little bigoted",(wink wink, nudge nudge) then the punch line works. ( listen for the first laugh). Then the follow up line gets a bigger chortle with “then that adds another layer of scepticism"

Main Stream Media have already written the story line of "Obama the Uniter" and this little insight of Obama doesn't fit. This video clip has not appeared on any network or cable TV news programs. Not once.

I’m posting this video clip link, and asking the question, what's so funny?
Let others make up their minds.

Seven good reasons to vote against Hillary

Genifer Flowers 15 year affair with Bill and Hillary knew
Juanita Broderick accused Bill of rape Hillary knew
Kathleen Willey Hillary knew
Monica Lewinsky Semen on the dress Hillary knew
Paula Jones won a lawsuit against Bill Hil knew
Senator James Inhofe-Oklahoma
and finally Hillary Clinton herself

If your husband has done what Bill did to Hillary and Chelsea including lieing to Hillary, accused of rape by Broderick, proven to have had a sexual liason with Lewinsky after lieing to his wife, had a long affair with Flowers, accused of groping Willey in the White House, lied to a grand jury losing his law license for five years and fined, and the woman still stays with him, do you really want her to run Ameica with that kind of decision making ability? The woman knew all this and remained with Bill anyway and she wants America to believe she has your best interests at heart.
Am I missing something here?

http://www.againsthillary.com/clinton_national_security_coverup.html

This is a speech delivered on the floor of the US Senate in 1999 concerning President Clinton. Hillary knew of the speech and continues to be his loving wife to this day.
If you are a woman and your husband did all this, would you have the good sense to move on?
More importantly, would you want anyone who thinks this way to be your next president?
Just doesn't make sense to me but then men are from Mars and women are from Venus.

The answer is yes. You forgot one reason to vote against Hillary:
If you are a misogynist like "Disgusted with our board" then you should vote against Hillary.

In Obama first publication " Dreams from My Father", in 1995, there were two pictures on the cover him and his sister. Obama republished " Dreams from My Father in 2004. On the cover of the second publication is three different picture. One is a military picture... In the second publication "Dreams from My Father" he deleted approximately 50 pages to build his case for presidency ,to misslead the reader that he was a military veteran, and to reduce his exposure so no one would know about his background..... In 2006 he publish " The Audacity of Hope" building his candidacy for presidency even more, and building his case as a military veteran even more. His Presidential Candidacy is based around Lies, and his Military Background is to misslead the Readers... In 2008 he, also ,indicated that in one of his debate , he first began to run for presidency 1.5 years back. His candidacy began long before 1.5 years back. From the second publication of "Dreams from My Father, you can see that his candidacy for president began as eary as 2004, which is more than 3 years. Certain things in Obama book " Dreams from My Father" were fabricated and some things were used to protect his African Father and White Mother , by his Mother. His mother didnot want some things published in Barack Book. Obama did it for the money. Nor had he tithe (10% )of his books earning. He made over 4.2 million dollars in 2007, and only gave 5.7% to charity. I believe if he would have Tithe ($420,000) to his Church, then Reverend Wright wouldnot have call him "Just a Politician".

Some questions and observations. How many of the candidates including Hillary tithe the biblical ten percent to the church. How many candidates who are or have run for office lie about their backgrounds besides Obama? I believe Ronald Reagan in 1979 made a tour of 46 states telling people he was not running in 80.
How many candidates in the last 8 years have lied about their military backgrounds?
Lieing is part of politics; unfortunate but true.
Hillary wants to be our next president but does not have the good sense to leave a man who has had at least six affairs, lied to the American people and to her, embarrassed her and her daughter, compromised the security of the United States of America by approving the sale of super computers and guidance systems to the Chinese, lied on her income tax forms about fundraising to the tune of two million dollars, wants to nationalize health care for all Americans, but wants to be your next president with decision making skills like that.
Many candidates who have run for office in this country have lied to the people at one time or another. The question and bottom line would be, which candidate NOW is the biggest liar and which one would you REALLY want to lead us in the future. It is almost the lesser of the evils when it comes to picking a candidate to lead the USA.
We have, in the past in America, not had much to chose from when it came to political candidates. Seems we need to pick better candidates as a people to run. Good luck to all on whomever they pick to run.
We have the same problem in Avon. DO you return incumbents for four more years of bad leadership or do you vote only for the two new candidates who may have answers and solutions to our school systems problems? It is a hard choice to make because the incumbents have sold themselves as competent leaders with great ideas. Their results don't prove that. Will Avon have the guts to step forward and say NO to the incumbents or will it be four more years of the same old same old. You see, even at the local levels, it is a matter of do you choose change and possible new solutions, or do you stay with the good old boys and girls who got you into what you are into now. Not an easy decision for anyone this time around. I choose change, nationally and locally. I prefer to give new ideas a chance to make my schools and nation a better place to live in for my kids and my family. Good luck on whatever you choose.
