What? <p>As I was watching the debate last night I sat straight up and was yelling at he television several times when Senator Clinton actually said -not quoting exactly -but said something when explaining her passion for mandated Universal Healthcare like *imagine what social secuirty would look like if it were not mandataed*&nbsp; Social Security is a&nbsp;mess!&nbsp; Ugh!&nbsp; Then in explaining about how she'd visited the hospital and watched the people barely able to walk, some on wheelchairs, gurneys etc. again I wanted to yell, well if more representatives would have opposed the war when it was unpopular to do so, there wouldn't be soldiers being pushed in on gurnery's.&nbsp; And how about stealing Jon Edwards content as her only good moment? </p><p>I believe Barack's ability to stick to the issues, emphasize the difference in approach and how these things are going to get done were much more telling than ridiculous Xerox comments. </p><p>Finally, I believe that Senator Obama's answer to meeting with Raul Castro or other foreign leaders was absolutely correct. After all of the damage that&nbsp;the current administration has done, we are going&nbsp;to have to approach the rest of the world with humility, with&nbsp;courage&nbsp;of the proud&nbsp;America we are, but&nbsp;we cannot afford to demand things of other countries until we've done some proving ourselves. Agreed there would need to be an agenda, agreed that there would need to preparation and in no way&nbsp;should we support countires or dictators who ignore human rights, but as a Superpower with the opportunity to guide those types of governments in the right direction we have to acknowledge the mistake of our current administration and move on. </p><p>&nbsp;Barack Obama is the&nbsp;President to get that done. Primarily becuase he can't do it alone and he knows it.&nbsp;With the support of people from the bottom up, we can turn this great country around again!!!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p> http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/brandischorn/gGC4WG http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/brandischorn/gGC4WG/commentary#comments Fri, 22 Feb 2008 10:58:18 EST http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/brandischorn/gGC4WG Brandi Brandi 0 http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/comment_rss/gGC4WG/
