Canada has elections?  I didn't know.  And I don't care.  That's Canada's problem, we have our own.

DISCLAIMER:  As a life long member of the Democratic Party, a strong member in a strong union, and someone who cares about that party a lot, and America more... 

Hill would be worse than 4 more years of Bush Junior.  She, and her jerk-wad husband, have done more to ruin this nation than anyone before them, and only look good when seen against the backdrop of the past 8 years.  She lies.  She cheats.  She is born into a ruling class that has done anything but rule.  You can't trust what she says any further than you could throw the White House. 

Her whole "I care about working people" --- how do you care about something you have never done, never had to do?

Hill could turn out a base of people to vote against her - not because she is a woman, but because she is Hillary Clinton, that would not only lose the election, but would turn Congress.

Worst idea ever.

You can believe what you believe Tekla, but
your way of putting your point accross will not
tell me that Obama's better.

Just that you hate Clinton with a passion.

And, your dimissive tone is certainly not endearing... Just saying.

This stuff is a party primary.  As such, its open only to Americans, who are - for the most part - registered members of the Democratic Party.  Worry about your own elections, not ours.

No offense hon, but I think you need to take into consideration just how much the rest of the world has riding on this election of yours. For better or worse, in many cases US politics affect people in other countries much more than their own politics do. Your economy makes up 65% of the world's, your culture impresses itself on every other person on the planet, and ask anybody who worked at or near the US Embassy in Nigeria what, ten years ago now, if US foreign policy doesn't affect them, or the people in that Somalian town that got bombed last night.

Like it or not, you guys are in essence voting for a world president, not a US one. Of course we're going to take as much of an active interest as we can.

In that case, you guys better pray for Obama.

    Tekla has a point about Mrs. Clinton.  She is highly intelligent and she represents some kind of elitist class.  Her intelligence is what makes her more dangerous than Chimpy McFlightsuit (bush).

Oh we are my dear (I am anyway), or sending out intention into the universe, or casting spells on a regular basis, or ...

I don't trust dear Mrs. Clinton one iota. She'd be another Margaret Thatcher, or worse.

That's the truth! A few years ago, early on in the Bush years, I seriously considered moving to Canada... Friends remarked that if I left, I'd still be subject to US foreign policy...

As much as I'd love to vote for a woman president, Hillary Clinton is too old guard, status quo. My choice is for Obama. He also seems the better choice for trans issues.

Oh its not just her I hate, its the pair, the 'two for one' who, when last in office, sold out just about every democratic value and policy.  NAFTA, GATT, 'ending welefare as we know it', and the endless lying.  He lost Congress, helped Newt and the Repubs do the "Republican Revolution and its Contract on America" junk.  They were not good the first time around.  Any guess they will be any better this time?
