I am endorsing for President...
Hillary Clinton! That's right, after very careful consideration I have decided to officially endorse Hillary Clinton. (I'm sure she won't use my endorsement in her press materials, but nonetheless I'm putting it out there).
Like many other people, I was at first drawn in by Barack Obama's charismatic and inspiring speeches. It's exciting to think that a democrat might once again be in the White House. It's been hard to watch our countries economy and world opinion slip further and further. However, if you are a spectator of the democratic debates, perhaps you will have noticed what I have noticed. Hillary Clinton is someone with a PLAN. Not only does she want change, she lays out how to get there. I have never seen or been convinced of the same thing from Barak Obama. As many people who know me know, I love a STRONG WOMAN LEADER! Hillary can stand up to John McCain. Can Obama? I'm not so sure.
The reason the press points their questions to Hillary first is because she has an actual solid response. She has a path to follow, and steps to achieve her goals.
While I would love to see a black man as president, I have to say I'm voting for the woman this time. I doubt very seriously there will be another woman in the near future who has all the traits that Hillary Clinton has.
Now, that said I want to add that I was always bothered that Hillary stayed with Bill Clinton after his infidelity. I didn't understand it and I saw it as a weakness and a flaw. Perhaps in time we will learn all that happened behind the scenes. I don't think Hillary Clinton is the type of woman to stand back and accept this type of behavior. Is it relevant? I'm not sure.
