Primaries, Caucuses, Hillary Crying, oh my!

Why Hillary, why? Why did you cry? That's not the way for woman who wishes to be in power to go. It doesn't endear you to the public. It makes you look fake and weak. That is the worst stereotype against a woman being president. If you're stressed about not being able to pass your favored legislation are you going to go cry? The worst part is that it was staged. I don't care what anyone says Scorpio women are NOT cryers. When we do cry we're pissed off. So Hillary stop trying to appear kind, soft, and nuturning. Stop pandering to what you're not. Hillary is a hard-ass. She's highly motivated and is not above negative acts to get what she wants. We know this, she knows this. If you don't like it, don't vote for her.

As a person who disagrees more and more with Democrats on damn near everything I do think Hillary could make a good president, but compared to the current sociopath and his VP, Colbert looks good.

Now everyone is shocked about Obama. My question is, why? He's an accomplished, well-spoken politician that preaches change. He is trying to run on positivity and making the US a better place. Even if it's impossible at least he believes it. And I have to respect that. I'm tired of the media assuming white america is what it was in 1940. They are shocked that states full of rural white people could vote for a black man. Is the media serious? I believe that in this day, most of america knows that race doesn't matter. Plus how many of us never interact with someone of another race, especially black people? Douglas Wilder was elected govenor of Virginia in the 90s and come on now VA has a long history of not being too kind to us negroes.

This leads me to the black vote. Which is still the largest and most influential minority vote in america. There may be more latinos but 65% are illegal and can't vote anyway. Another reason I'm against amnesty. Back to the point. Can some black person preferably a leader tell me what the Clinton Administration did that was so gosh darned phenomenal for blacks? He came to black neighborhoods and shook hands. There was no special legislation that helped blacks. He didn't appoint a large number of blacks to his cabinet, Ron Brown, who else? Looking at it from a history perspective Bush I and II did more for blacks by appointing us to high ranking positions. So can we please get off of the myth of everything the Clintons did for us. I think Bill was a good president but that's for the whole country, not just my race. Let's vote with our brains and not let the media dictate what we think.

I'll continue to watch the debates and the news wire to get a better feel for the candidates. I can't in good conscience vote Republican just because of the religious aspect, bothers me so much. If I have to choose between being overrun by illegals from Mexico or loss of abortion rights, coporatocracy, further discrimination against gays, and unnecessary wars I guess I'll take the damn illegals (rolling eyes with my arms crossed). I'll vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards, their stances are really similar they just have different styles. I just hold out hope that the country will rebuke 4 more years of fear-mongering, corporate pandering, hate-spewing leadership.
