At a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Senator John Edwards formally endorsed Barack Obama for the Democratic Nomination. Both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama had been seeking the former Vice Presidential Candidates' blessing.
people turn away from Obama. Edwards is a liar. (About the vets
sleeping under bridges) As a Disabled Vet myself, I know what the
Veterans Admin and the VA Medical centers have set up. Not the greatest
medical care, but no veteran HAS to sleep under a bridge.
He may have a few more delegates,
she may have the popular vote and needed states to win.
But I think they will cut her out and try to mend the party asap.
I don't think they will put her on the dream team either.
Party people's work is made harder by truth/justice people. (me)
Both are champions for right things - justice
One slowly gets it done and works harder (some day a woman will be president)
because the other makes people feel uncomfortable.
It's why many of my anti - establishment generation pulled away from politics
What will you young folks do?
Make the hypocrits face you head on, make them tell you to your face, make them declare that, in their opinion, he is the better candidate.
I want to see their hand.
I want to document it to the world.
If the Party wanted to play fair, the SDs would wait the few more weeks before declaring who they are for. By making their declaration now they are only attempting to stack the deck their way. Such unsportsman like conduct should not be acceptable bahavior from people who profess to be our leaders in the country professing to promote democracy to the world. It should be no wonder other countries have less than favorable opinions of the United States.
His case? He has won more delegats and states (with a lead in pop vote)
Her case? She has the important states needed to in Nov. against McCain - she expects to pass him in pop vote when all contest ended by June 3
Super Delegates are now giving over their points. He has just surppased her in those.
IF supers continue either NOW, before states have finished voting, before they resolve MI & FL - he could reach the magic number and there would be no need to fight over it at convention.
:o(
I think it is and is why I still chase after justice.
He won't change much
