According to Wikipedia, Hugh Rodham opened a very successful drapery shop and textile printing factory soon after WWII. Hillary was born in 1947.

According to the book, Hillary's Choice, they lived in the finest house on the finest street and always had a brand new Cadillac in the driveway.

When Hillary was born her father was already a successful businessman. When Hillary was three years old the family moved from their city apartment in Chicago to Park Ridge, an upper middle class suburb according to her own Hillary Rodham-Clinton.org website.

Why did she claim that she is from a working class family?

Yeah, it happens on both sides but this new Democratic controlled congress takes the cake. All I've heard from the Democrat's rants is how they hate the rich oil companies and they are going to tax the rich, but guess what they did yesterday?

The new energy bill was approved with strong bipartisan support 86-8 after Democrats abandoned efforts to impose billions of dollars in new taxes on the biggest oil companies.

They cut & run again and not at all what they said they would do. Not a single dime of new taxes for oil companies. Does this remind you how they all tell us they are against the war but voted for it to happen and they are for pulling out our troops but none of their leaders are running on that platform for President.

Kerry shouldn't have been blame as a flip/flop since the whole Party seems this way. Whatever happened to getting us out of Iraq?

I paraphrase.....but who said that? Who said its smart for those in power to give the perception that all who oppose them on any issue are really all one group of people and to keep hammering away at that group.. So that for example if someone oppose you on jaywalking you call him a x, if they oppose you on ecology, you call them a x, if they oppose you in what day is best for trash day you call them a x. The point being that you belittle this group x by hammering them all the time so that people become afraid to opppose you or risk being ridiculed as being a member of group x.

and who has done that in the last few years in the american political realm. Please give a specific example.

Also are spouses of the president allowed in the Oval office or is it for prez eyes and ears only? I thought it would be awkward since what happened with Bill in there...Would Hillary get angry sitting there thinking about it?

The Supreme Court (with 2 new Bushies added to it) has decided that corporations, businesses and private interest groups can now run their own smear ads against a candidate as long as they don't specifically say not to vote for that candidate:

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/06/25/campaign.finance/index.html

Anyone want to take a guess at which candidate will get hit by the pharmaceutical companies and health insurance mafia?

Anyone else ashamed that the Supreme Court would advocate even more corporate mud-slinging added to our politics this year?

Our families weekly grocery budget is about $100-$150 for 5 people!

That's $5,200-$7,800/yr!

It seems the cost of living and the median income levels are not congruent!

2007-12-13 17:14:42 · 9 answers · asked by Kelly B 4

.
Should we pass a constitutional amendment to ban campaign contributions and political ads from lobbyist, corporations, interest groups, unions and industry ?

And make it where, only individual citizens are allowed to donate to political campaigns ?

Make it where, you can only donate, to politicians running in your State or for President.

Then also cap the donations to $1,000.

That way, the rich, cannot donate to political campaigns, in every state.

constructed our government the way they did?

What were they trying to accomplish that in the last few decades is becoming dangerously close to disappearing right under our noses?
