My Thoughts on Hillary as VP

Last night I read in article where Hillary indicated that she would not rule out being on the ticket as Vice President. I would just like all of you to know that I have talked to many Obama supporters in the Houston area and we all believe this would be a huge mistake. When I was at the polls voting and at the caucus, you would have been amazed at the diversity of the individuals who were there to support him. I know that she has been feeding both the press and members of the Obama campaign the line that he cannot win over her supporters or her voting blocks without her. I do not believe this is true. There are many other VP candidates that could help Obama in this area and not create the added problem of continuously trying to usurp his Presidential power once he is in office. In addition, those of us who supported Obama, did so because we believe in his vision of change, of a new Washington. Hillary Clinton represents exactly the kind of politics Obama has professed to change. By adding her to the ticket, many of us would see that as a slap in the face.
