Both have said that they intend to (i) tax the hell out of you; and (ii) continue the Federal Government's policy of racial and gender discrimination (also known as affirmative action). I'm not voting for anyone who supports either of those things.

I'm considering Richardson - at least he says he won't raise my taxes.

Impressive that you still believe that only white men are major wage earners.

I agree I think affirmative action is a bad idea. I think evidence of racism and discrimination must be clear cut before action is taken. (numbers alone don't cut it in my opinion).
I don't mind paying taxes. If kids half my age can die in a war fighting for us (whether you believe in this particular war or not) ponying up a little (or even a lot) of money doesn't bother me in the slightest. I consider myself a moderate democrat, but this is the biggest reason I will never be a republican - they often put money above human life, a choice I would never make.
Republicans have an uphill battle after the disasterous synergy of bad ideas in the last 6 years. I think John McCain stands out, he is my first choice. Other than that I'd take Obama, Hilary, or even a dog over a republican.

They intend to roll back the tax cuts for the rich, not exactly a pathway to taxing the hell out of me. Warren Buffet had a hell of a point. I'm not a big fan of affirmative action, I think it's been a failure for the most part. But I'm also shocked at the newly conservative USSC ruling on integration in schools. Are we going to go back to having segregated school systems again? Yeah, THAT'S a real step forward for racial discrimination, you bet.
I know quite a few white males (and are white males the only ones who are concerned with taxes and discrimination?) who support Sen. Clinton in particular. I work with a boatload of them on her campaign. Most of them fall into the upper middle class sector of our society.

I particularly like the part about the taxes!! Made me laugh out loud!!!! Ya see I enjoy the tax cut from Bush right before the Gas prices went through the roof!! and everything else is following behind prices rising higher & higher... Along with the taxes on those same goods... LOL And you believed him when he said he was behind tax cuts!!!!!LOL Honey they were shaking your hand and sticking the knife in your back...oh that is unless you are one of those fortunate ones that already have lots of $$$$$$$$ and actually DID get a tax cut!...

Perhaps a better question might be, "Why would any one vote for..." since your argument applies to everyone in the country.
Still, you deserve an answer. Unfortunately, my answer is, "I don't know". Neither one of them has ever accomplished anything or done anything of consequence. Add to that the fact that both are uber-socialists and I'm stumped. No one with two brain cells to rub together would vote for either of these jokers. Unfortunately, there are a lot of single celled brains out there. Just look how long Uncle Ted "Golly, is Mary Joe still in the car?" Kennedy has been a senator.

I am a white male and I would vote for Clinton over Guiliani, I choose someone on what they stand for, not what their sex is, or race. You would be surprised how many supporters Clinton, and Obama have, dont count your chickens before they hatch, when Clinton gets elected 50% of America will be mad for about a week. Get over it. We have a year, anything could happen. See what happened with the last white male we voted for...

Look at how a complete unknown like obama is selling his image... he packaged himself like a rock star, he says nothing of substance except to chant the trite and tried and widely loved mantras of the far left, and so now he's giving shrillary a run for her money, or should I say a run for someone else's money.
In fact, she's so scared of obama, that she has to evoke her husband's presence in order to keep the attention away from obama... and whenever she brings her husband on the stage, she looks like just another extra on that stage... when it comes down to the final curtain, that is, the curtain we draw behind us in order to vote, I don't think people will really want another 4 years of clinton and all the baggage the name brings with it.
Neither of those two tax loving clowns will get my vote.

Why would anyone vote for them? Never mind color. Only tree hugging liberals would vote for them. Take from the rich and redistribute to the poor. Only that the ones in power continue to get rich. At least the republicans are honest about it...LOL! Sounds like they're trying to turn America into a communist regime.

You are severely misguided if you think any of the Republican candidates come close to Hillary and Obama. I can't believe what a sucker you are.
I'm a white male and Hillary and Obama are my two best choices! Why would I vote for any of the Republicans when they are supporting the corrupt deserter traitorious death-profiteering cartel of Bush-Cheney?!
Affirmative Action is necessary due to racism.
Tax the hell out of me? Please. The Bush-Cheney criminal regime has given the rich so many tax breaks and average wage earners none. Hillary and Obama are going to tax the rich, as they should. Why? Because the American people provide the infrastructure for the rich to get rich.

Major mental problems, not because he black, I would gladly vote for Rice, or Powell, Not because she kinda looks like a woman, I would vote for Rice again, but because they are both idiots, who will destroy the working class with their ignorance
