We had it all, we had a candidate that united the Democratic party and we allowed it to be divided and severely weakened. Hillary had the black american vote, had the hispanic vote, had the women's vote, had the anti-war vote and all she needed was a united party and money. We had a chance to stop the war, get universal health care, a national energy conversion policy, the supreme court and on and on. Apparently this was not good enough for you self described "liberals", you had to inject race into the equation, you had to drink from the river of hate that Rush Limbaugh has been gushing forth and find any reason you can to vote for someone other than Hillary. Well humpty dumpty can't be put back together again and the divide is going to get deeper.
The brain activity of a liberal is supposed to see into the future and make predictive based changes to enhance our survival, so here goes. Barack's blackness will be further highlighted and used to scare voters ( pre and post general election). You see Barack's numbers against McCain are PRE-general election, you bone-heads can't see the usual train wreck coming, and it comes everytime, an unvetted Barack is open to every lie, spin, federal investigation, racist remark that can be told a million times by the republican held and run media in this country, you ain't seen nuthin yet. Independents (x-republicans) will see this and flee back to their party saying we are a bunch of losers. Hillary supporters will flock to McCains camp or stay home out of frustration. The hispanic vote will be repressed and disenfranchised. Starting to get the picture!
Hillary had a chance, she had been vetted, she and Bill were the firewall that protected America for years from the psychopaths that were trying to hijack this country (republicans). She and Bill have had every pile of shit that the right wing could muster thrown at them and they survived. They had hundreds of FBI agents investigating them for years and all they found was a stain on Monica's dress.
You're going to tell me that because Barack is black that he is more qualified to be president, is that what you are saying, that's what 90% of the black voters are saying apparently. You're going to tell me that because Barack gives an inspiring speech, thats what qualifies him, lets get his speech writers to run for office then. Your going to tell me he has the "good judgement" (his words) to be president because he gave a speech in 2002 against the war, then why did he vote to fund the war appropriations over and over as a U.S senator, and why did he vote against Kerrys and Feingolds bills to withdraw troops. Good judgement doesn't come from telling people you have it you bone-heads.
No, Barack Obama is the most destructive person this nation has ever seen, he is the trojan horse that divided and destroyed the Democratic party at a critical point. He is the one that keeps us from stopping George bush and his psychopathic policies and the institution that put him in power, the Republican party.
You bet it all without weighing the consequences and doing the research and thinking about the democratic party and america. You wanted to feel good about your candidate and thats what his speech writer gave you, a perception based campaign not rooted in fact or truth. You wanted to give the black guy a chance because "they" deserve a chance. There is very little in his past that indicates he can overcome the enormous resistance to change and a lot to indicate he will compromise and fold to pressure. I for one don't like being lied to over and over about Barack being the antiwar candidate or his good judgement, his hijacking the issue is not for our benefit but for his own, and purely self serving. I will not forgive him for this nor his decision to divide the democratic party, I will not vote for him.
