Is Hillary racist? When bringing up issues about Martin Luther King JR you are automatically setting yourself up to be looked at as a racist. How smart is it for Hillary, who is in an election against a black man to even bring up MLK? It seems to me it was a political tactic to once again have voters stray away from the real issues. The question is not if Hillary is racist, but really what relevant issue does she want us to avoid?
How can you say this about our next president? No other candidate has the integrity of Hillary Clinton! Who do you think ran the country during Bill’s 4 years? Without Hillary, Bill wouldn’t have had a shot. Mrs. Clinton has no need to resort to petty tactics and you are foolish to think so!
Senator Clinton’s efforts to get all Americans universal health care should be commended.
The UK, France, Cuba and other countries have already provided universal health care for their citizens, why can we?
Why would anyone put a Clinton in office? So much of our reputation was ruined with all, of the scandal during the Bill Years. He was an embarrassment to our nation! That’s when the world stared to laugh at us. We need someone with integrity in office! not who reminds us of humiliation!
Kudos to Clinton for fighting in senate to reduce ax cuts to business owners who take their business out of the country! We are so sick of losing our factory jobs! We need the money! The poverty level is at an all time high! With Mrs. Clinton in power I can see a future for this country!
The world was laughing at us because clinton got a bj? I didn’t know that, if that’s the case they must be rolling over laughing at how we invaded Iraq over 9-11.
not a clinton fan by far, i just thought your comment had no substance.
Kudos to Senator for Clinton for standing strong and taking Ohio! This is the year of the woman! Stop the infighting and plan the dream ticket! Clinton and Obama together is the future of America!
That is not a dream ticket! How can they beat each other down and then say the want to work together? The ideal running mate is John Edwards. His fight against poverty is what our country needs
As a Commander in Chief Hillary would be a ridiculous choice. Spending one day entertaining the truth does not qualify you to lead them. We also live in a world that does not respect women as leaders. What if we are at war with one of those countries…such as right now! How can Hillary lead us out of war if she is not respected as a leader? McCain has the experience this country needs!
Geraldine Ferrara is not a racist. In this sensitive time that we live in her words about Obama were taken to heart when it was merely just a statement. Furthermore, it was shameful for Senator Clinton to denounce Geraldine and have her step down from the campaign. That shows a lack of integrity on the part of senator Clinton as she could not stand up for someone who clearly deserves it. This shows her weak attempt to hold on to her campaign and exposes her as the weak leader she would be if she became our next president. After this latest turn of events I strongly feel Obama should be the Democratic nominee.
Hillary is the woman for the job. She is what our country needs to finally make a change! It takes a good woman to do a strong man’s job and Hillary is that woman!
For the sake of the Democratic party it is time for Hillary to submit to defeat. We need to stop focusing on who are candidate is going to be and start focusing on how to win the presidency. Every punch thrown Obama has been able to duck and in viewer polls on nbc news people trust him to run the country more than they trust HIllary. He is also ahead in super delegates. Hillary, if you really care about this country like you say you do, swallow your pride, and do what is best!
Senator Clinton’s stance on issues seem to have changed alot over the years. Not that its a bad thing, but it just appears she is becoming more of a standard politician. The main think that worries me is her relationship to health care corporations. Early in her husbands presidency she was against evil health insurance companies who send people to their deaths over minor costs, and definitely over major costs. In fact, health insurance companies have been allowed to run free without any boundaries. I hope she can get us cost effective universal health care if she wins
Hillary just won Penn and is now in i for the long hall. I agree with Stacy that this hurts the Dem. party and ruins our chances to win the big office! Barak and HIllary need to think about what is best for our country and start putting it ahead of their own personal egos! More importantly as Michael Moore states on his blog HIllary needs to stop with her “scare tactics” to white people. Someone who stoops to this level cannot have the moral sense to run our country. Sen. Obama is the man for change!
hillary is trying anything she can to bring down obama. anything that pops up she tries to inflame and attack his credibility with. while he seems to be trying to take the higher road. i think he should be fighting back more!
Senator Clinton has yet to voice a strong stance on how she will help our environment, I have hear her speak about the war, taxes, and even immigration reform but I worry that she does not take the environment as seriously as the other issues our country is facing. This makes me wonder if she is the right candidate to head up the Democratic party!
I am not sure if it is a calculated move by the Dem party but by keeping Hillary in the race they have dominated the news. People don’t even here about John McCain. This is a smart tactic as when Obama does get they nomination, he may get more votes because people won’t remember what McCain stands for.
Whatever the reason i is pointless to waste even more money that could go into helping people to continue to fight a losing battle.
why would quoting from the Assoc. Press make you racist. Americans need to calm down with jumping on racial and sexism high horses every time comments are mentioned. It is not racist to quote text.
I admire Hillary for still hanging on, however she needs to withdraw now and strongly support Obama Obama needs all the help in order to beat McCain. We do not need another Bush & Cheney in the White house……….McCain is too old & a warmonger (not to mention his plastic looking wife) MCain is so superficial, because he was a war hero, does not make him fit to be president. There are many many war heroes out there who experienced more horrors than he did. MCain has been in the Senate for over 20 years, what has he done for Arizona? nothing!!! he is the usual ‘old’ politician with nothing but tricks up his sleeves.
Winning yet another popular vote is just delaying the inevitable! Concede Hillary Concede!
Enough Senator Clinton! This is ridiculous! Its time to drop out! Enough is enough! You are holding n to something already out of your reach and that separates not unites the party. If you want to do something for this country concede with grace!
Hillary you show strength and are a symbol of pride for every woman. You make it possible for us to dream
