No President has ever run this Country by himself

By Staten Island Edwards for Obama - Dec 28th, 2007 at 9:38 pm EST

Which of our presidents can claim to run the United States Government by himself? FDR didn't. Truman didn't. Kennedy didn't. And Clinton certainly didn not. They all relied on the collective talent of the American people and the institutions that they created and passed on to us. This Country has done well, inspite of and despite the behavior of those who have occupied the White House, for the last 200 plus years. We don't know it will be destroyed by an Obama presidency. The presidency might even be enhanced by his talents. Is that so difficult for the Clintons to imagine? True he is young, but he is hardly the youngest that will have occupied that, the highest office in the land. I can think of a few presidents, in recent memory, that were a lot younger and not as smart. I can also think of a few ,in recent memory, who were lot older, who did do a good job. The Republic has survived and can, I believe, might endure for another 200 years.

Hillary Still has Hidden Records. Can we take that chance?

By Staten Island Edwards for Obama - Dec 17th, 2007 at 3:52 pm EST

Hillary has called into question Obama's readiness to be president, hoping that no one notices her experience is just as thin. But Hillary has bigger problems. First she claims that she has experience and wants Americans to accept it at face value, but she does not extend the same curtesy to Obama and his experience. Then she claims the good from the Clinton years but ignores bad. She porns off her First Lady experience as presidential experience but at the same time resist full disclosure. She claims that Obama is persuing a long held ambition in his run for president while at the same time completely ignoring her longer held ambition to occupy the same office. She claims that she has been thoroughly vetted, meaning she is a known quantity, but she had to reintroduce herself over and over again. Why? And if we know her that well, how is it that we are still waiting to get peek into the kind of advice she gave her husband president? Why is it that we should take her word for it and there are documents that tell the whole story? Should the American people buy the proverbial 'pig in a bag'? Can America take that chance? Can we afford to be embarrassed again? Have we forgot the Mark Rich pardon debacle at the end Bill Clinton's administration? I wonder if the DesMoine Register considered these questions before they endorsed her?
