Hillary Rodham Clinton

[Schematic]

What if she becomes the next POTUS?

[impolite]

dont know, havent followed american politics for a couple years since i relocated but i never minded the lady. still, from what i know of some of the other candidates, she'd not be my choice above all. plus she's one of the rare cases where a woman could be president and the husband would not be entirely emasculated since he was kinda..there first.

[STRONGARM]

If her husband had NOT been a former president.. and had NOT been beloved by so many, real talk: she'd be a complete joke of a candidate and no one would give her any type of shot at running let alone winning.

[mocha-chi]

I agree with the comment by stronarm. I'm not saying that she has nothing to offer, but her trump card is her husband's popularity. And even that wasn't enough to help her win the Iowa primary.

It's amazing how much love Clinton gets from Blacks! He put a select few Blacks in his cabinet while refusing to abolish the crack (rock) and powder sentencing guidelines that put millions of African Americans in prison AND booted millions of African Americans off of welfare WITHOUT creating jobs for them to turn to!

yeah but he got head in the oval office and plays the sax!

seriously niggas say that shit, no lie, talking bout yeah clinton IS black.

I wish that more people would actually look into these canidates, go a little further than just apperence ad the shit you see in them corny ass debates man. I think instead of all them bull shit celebrity "50 best beach buns!" magizines at the store there should be canidate profiles and information on what bills are going to the house and senate....cause for real practicing democracy is more than just voting for a fucking puppet every 4 years

LOL. Its the governments job to 'create jobs' for people? How exactly would they do that? Unless your talking about government jobs. I honestly dont understand what you mean. Please elaborate.

Also, since I take it your a supporter of welfare, let me ask you this. Should we require drug tests for anyone on welfare? If no, why not? And should we require people to WORK to receive welfare? If no, why not?


by the way, hitlery clinton is a soulless communist in my opinion. She will NOT be elected president.

[jmccoyjr]

It's the government's job to create an economic climate that fosters growth in the job market whether through reduced industry taxes, NAFTA expansion or lowered interest rates to drive new businesses.

I am far and away not a supporter of welfare. BUT what I am is a relatively successful African American who recognizes that over 63% of those living below the poverty line are Black. I recognize, and I hope you do as well, that it does little for the 2 or 3 mini-Oprahs and Bob Johnsons to be successful when we run the risk of losing multiple genrations of African Americans to an institutionalized caste system of poverty. If we don't help our ownselves who will?

^^Thats is a very intellegent response. I would have to assume you are not a regular on this site. Pun intended.

I like Obama ..But I don't believe he can win. Iowa woke everyone up. No one was expecting that.

If you watched the debate the other day...The replubican candidates were given over fifteen minutes of the debate to slander Obama. Not Hillary, not Edwards, just Obama. They never even took shots at Huckabee as he to won Iowa, and this was during the "replubican" debate. You have to love the obsticles created for one candidat. Some how, even without New Hampshire, I was happy to experience an intellegent African American politician run. What a race he ran to. This country has made some progress, just not quite enough to elect an African American as the Commander & Chief, no matter his/her credentials. Barrak Obama could of been Jesus himself ...and America would not elect him, unless they knew for sure.

I will still vote for Obama because I believe him to be the best qualified for the job of "Change".

Clintons and Bushs would share the last 28 years in office. How is Hilary represent "Change" again?

Blah

[STRONGARM]

Well since a vote for Hillary = a vote for Bill.. it's like a sly way for Bill Clinton to have a second shot at being President without him having his past scandals brought up. So in reality.. anyone who wasn't happy with his presidency WILL NOT vote for Hillary. So it's helpful and hurtful to her run, having him as a Husband. I think the general consensus is America wants 1. A Democrat in the White House and 2. Someone NEW.. like Christ said.

[Christ]

The polls were soooo different yesterday. How the numbers change so dramatically??

This is how he will get beat............No one will ever know.

They say .."O' a extra 11 thousand extra voters came out to vote in a population of 40 thousand". And you will believe it.....you really don't have a choice.

Exactly......Theeee Exact way ..When Bush was elected.

[run]

thats why voting should be mandatory.

now no matter who wins, people will be second guessing.

[trakmoney7]

just get out and vote, simple as that....i mean we all live here right?

[jmccoyjr]

Let's hope Obama's campaign quickly moves past New Hampshire and produces a resounding win in S. Carolina.

[dcgamer]

the way its lookin seems like she's gonna top the democrat party runners, with having the clinton name behind her. obama better step his game up.
