Elections - September 2007

I dont understand this wasnt she the one who voted for the war because as she said Sadam with his WMDs were a threat to the world and she supported George Bush 100% than she flip floped and said she was against the war and wanted to troops withdrawn immediately now she says if shes elected she cant guarantee the war will be over during her administration in 2013 whats with this woman has she lost it?

How could anyone vote for her is beyond belief.

She has no moral authority to be President.

My views have certainly changed.

Hillary Clinton: I was never a big fan of hers, but I didn’t understand why she was so disliked either. Now I do… All the other democratic candidates that voted yes to Iran, admitted that it was a mistake… Mrs. Clinton, voted yes but did not say anything... After the failure we had in Iraq, don’t you think you’d consider these things before you vote YES to Bush’s resolution that would enable the first steps to go to war with Iran? Mike Gravel called her out on it.. I understand many people feel that Iran is a threat, but after the lesson we learned in Iraq, the other candidates suggested that we need to go about it another way and our economy cannot take another war… Not to mention she can’t answer hypothetical questions

Barack Obama: I thought he was the biggest disappointment of the night, I’ve already researched his voting record and found that his ideas of “change” conflict with each other. He didn’t even bother to show up to vote on the Iran resolution, How are you going to change things when you don’t vote? And this is not the first time this has happened.. I feel like he dodges these things so he can avoid the hard questions.. There is nothing “progressive” about this candidate, one who voted to reauthorize the Patriot Act.. One who anytime you ask a question either blames the problems on this administration or just sells the idea of “change and freedom” He can’t even answer a question directly..

-Not to mention both of them cannot even clarify that we would have troops out by 2013, SIX YEARS LATER!! Or even by their second term… I understand that it will take time… but all the other candidates like Biden outlined a proper strategy, which neither Barack or Hillary could do… They gave unclear answers to almost any question they were asked, like social security…

I was extremely disappointed and I don’t understand how these two can manage to be the top tier candidates…

I found this to be disturbing, so I thought that I would ask everyone what their opinion is:
______________________________________
I asked this young man who he likes for president. This will be his first presidential election (he's 20). He said he will vote for Hillary Clinton. I asked him why.

He said, "Well its not that I really have much of an opinion on her policies and I really don't have anything against any of the other candidates, I just want to be able to say that I was part of the first woman ever to be elected president of the United States."
_______________________________________
could this _possibly_ be typical of a Clinton supporter?

An imminent vote in the Senate could save the lives of many Iraqi families at risk.
In a recent memo, U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker said the United States must act more quickly to help desperate Iraqi refugees find safety – "Iraqis who have put themselves and their families at risk by working with us."
Due to the current crisis, approximately 2,000 Iraqis are forced to flee their homes every day. More than 2.2 million Iraqis have already fled to neighboring countries. Jordan has closed its borders and Syria plans to next month. Soon, Iraqis threatened with death will literally have no way to flee.
The U.S. promised to admit 7,000 Iraqis between October 1, 2006 and September 30, 2007. To date, only 719 have been allowed to enter. Fortunately, there is a bipartisan amendment in the Senate that will help bring some of these Iraqis - and other vulnerable Iraqi refugees - to safety in the United States.

They insist President Bush pull the troops out immediately, they bash him on it continuously. Then they do an about face, and say "It's impossible to say when they will come out." "It's hard to predict 4 years from now." they really must feel we are imbeciles, uncapable of remembering how they voted for it, then voted on an immediate withdrawal, and now say it's impossible to say. I say dump the whole unstable, impossible to make up their minds and get better ones that are not wavering on their stand. If you want an immediate withdrawal, at least stick to that all the way through and not be double minded about it.
comments?

The current and past governments has sold us down the river, the car industry is no longer in the US, no more industry, manufacturing, farming, and most jobs have been sent to India and China, we are being taxed to death, greed has taken over everything and left us with lies and little else. Ron Paul is the only hope to get America back. The media (owned by the large corporations) wont cover Ron Paul or acknowledge his supporters because it would bring down all the profit above all else greedy people... but.. my question is, if a person really examined each candidate, how could they vote for anyone other than Ron Paul? This appears to be the only hope for America and honest hard working Americans.

Bring our jobs back, stop buying from China, close the borders, stop wars for oil, develop solar, wind, hydro and other clean fuels, reduce taxes, stop government spending, special interest influence.. help me out here, How long can America last with the current rate of decline?

The conservatives and independents in this country are starving for a candidate with a proven record of leadership and success, and bold new ideas. The current crop of GOP candidates just ain't cutting it. We need you buddy.

Now I am not hater and I will vote for whoever I believe in the most. I have watched the debate and Hillary's a great speaker. It seems as if she may win. Even if America does not support her she is strong she may get the electoral votes and that's way more important than the people's votes. I like her. What is your opinion? No immature put down comments bc I said mature answers. Most of us are adults and we should act like one. Please be fair...I will respect if you decide to favor another candidate bc everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Thank you for your time!!!!

when you suggest for them to look at paul they say he is extreme. there is nothing wrong with going back in the direction he wants to take us. in case you conservatives haven't noticed, we have been going in the wrong direction for about 20 years. we had bush with a republican house and sentate for 5 years and couldn't close the borders, even after 9/11. what are you conservatives looking for? more of the same or real change. if you say you want real change from the status quo of lobbyists and illegals, and open ended war, you need to really at least consider ron paul. the military supports ron paul more than any other candidate. he receiced 49.5% of the total campaign contributions from the military. the cia's head of bin laden unit, michael sheurer says ron paul has the right view on the war on terror. he is the only man that understands the treat we face from terrorists.

If Washington D.C. was predominately white they would have been all for it. Hundreds of thousands of black constituents have no one to represent them. This is how much Republicans think of minorities. When Democrats take over the White House in 2009 this will go before a vote again and pass. Abraham Lincoln would be ashamed of what his party has become.

The format was changed to "Survivor" with all the candidates on an island and one getting voted out every week.

I think more people would vote, and we'd get to see what they're really like...
