Hilary

What in the world is Hillary thinking ? She is ruining the  Democratic party by what she is doing to Obama. She needs to concentrate  on the important  things going on here in the US.   We need to first get our troups home.  Look at the number of deaths,  of our soldiers and how many are coming back with out limbs or other injuries? Look at our country, it is very close to a depression. what a scary thought .                          Carla Brody

Carla, you could just as well open your...

post by taking a close look at Obama. What is he doing, you might ask.

What you are seeing is two candidates running for the position of President of the United States. Both want the job. Both have qualified themselves to make such a run. Both are presently engaged in fighting each other using the always questionable tools of dirty politics.

The 'bottom line' is that you can do nothing for the country, nothing for the troops, nothing for the citizens UNTIL you are elected. That is when the focus changes.

The problems with America are the direct result of a criminal cabal that no one seems to have the courage to indict, try, impeach and/or imprison.

Right now, we seem to be in a tie politically. Neither candidate is able to gain the necessary number of delegates to achieve their personal goals.

There is little purpose served in pointing the finger at either candidate until the contest comes to a close.

A mind once expanded can never return to its original dimensions.

The greatest derangement of the mind is to believe in something because one wishes it to be so.
