Well to be honest, if everyone is a goverment employee, then the Clinton healthcare plan will work for everyone. Unfortunately some are self employed, independent contractors or work for private employors or small business. Under the Clinton healthcare plan these people would be penalized if they don't pay for their healthcare. This means that most of your family members and friends will have their paychecks garnished. We all know that it doesn't stop there if it is a goverment enforcement. There will be fines and then misdemeanors which is a criminal offense defined as less serious than a felony. Why did Ms. Clinton decide on this approach? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. Big business, big Corporation call it what you will, they want their money back and in order for Ms. Clinton to get their support in her race to presidency she is giving victory to one side (the healthcare providers) by promising to them that she will have the poeople wages garnished if they continue to give healthcare. Thus allowing her to shout the words "UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE" This is a shady tactic and makes fools out of every american that falls for this trick. The Obama healthcare plan is for the people. Poor people, middle class and rich people can rest assured that there is no tricks or penalties in the Obama healthcare plan. VOTE OBAMA!!

But The Clintons also know they don't need to win like a normal candidate. The have a blindly committed base of older women that will support Hillary if she brandishes two horns, a tail and a pitchfork (her base has confused the women's movement with the presidential race). Numerically, all Bill and Hillary need to do is appeal to a small percentage of the rational voting population that hasn't mistaken the presidential election for a struggle to elect a woman. Oddly, they haven't been able to reach and convert even 10%. So their options become limited. They have Harold Ickes - infamously referred to as 'The Garbageman' due to his role in Bill's political career - trying to help steal the nomination by pressuring the Superdelegates. And now they trying to get John Edwards to endorse Hillary. Here's why I think that effort fails. It will not be through lack of effort. <i>Hillary would promise her mother away if it got her elected, so you know she offered the VP slot to Edwards. But he won't take it. He's not stupid.</i> As any student of politics can tell you, Bill let Al Gore's VP role languish in a behind the scenes power struggle with Hillary - remember his first years in the White House and HillaryCare? The VP situation in a Clinton white house would be even worse this time. Imagine being VP with Bill willying around the Oval Office - you'd have to be daft to take the job, knowing that it's only a paper position, almost an inconvenience to Bill and Hillary's plans and ambitions. Plus, Edwards has a symbiotic relationship with his voters. If Hillary were likable, they would have broken towards her, but instead they have broken heavily for Obama. Because he probably has the power to sway the nomination, Edwards will get a cabinet position at for sure, possibly the VP slot. <b>So put yourself in Edwards' shoes, because it is literally his pick to make. In the Clinton cabinet, you are always third fiddle at best, the Bill and Hillary show are in the first and second chair, that's where the decisions will be made before they are presented for rubber stamp approval by the cabinet. The Clinton White House would be dysfunctional like a family business - which always work well for the family, but rarely work well for anyone else.</b> Edwards is bright, I think he will choose wisely and seek a deal with the Obama camp.

She is such a loser! Just what is Billl"s role going to be if and when he should reach the WhiteHouse? How many files will find their way to the living room of the White House?? How many people of political influence( our new supervoters ) will have something in these files that will affect the out come of the Dems convention? Where is the press in asking these questions of our nominees? How many people will be fired because they worked in the Bush white house? These Clintons are desperate people with a history of pay back. What a mess!! How desperate can you get? She is such a loser!

Nowhere does it say that to be president, you have to have 'experience' in the White House. Just because she was First Lady makes her experienced???? Look at what the current president has done. He had years of experience as governor. Look what his father did before that. He had years of experience as senator and as Vice-President. She says she is close to the poor and is battle tested and yet whines about a reporter's comment about her daughter. Pimping out is how us "poor" people talk about using your daughter to call superdelegates to court their votes. I think she was mad more about getting found out rather than the reporter using those street words. Backing out of the debates doesn't strike me as the actions of someone who is battle tested. I bet her husband is itching to get back to the White House to get his hands on more interns! Agree with Keith.

Voting for the clintons would be a disaster! I, to, was in the military during one of clintons administration. YES!!! He cut funding that we could not get new gear and most of all our funding for our training was halted! IF hrc was to become president. What would her administration do with the thousand of soldiers she brings home from overseas? I have the brilliant idea. Put them (soldiers)on our borders to enforce the flow of illegals entering OUR country that our soldiers defend! VOTE NO for hrc she has her own agenda! by the way, I am hispanic. So NOT ALL hispanics voted for hrc! I have to agree with Keith from Wisconsin.

I am not representing any person, company or endorsing any candidate. I have no other agenda than to help unite those do not wish to see another Clinton elected President. There is over 40% of the legal voting population in United States oppose the Clintons for numerous reasons, the highest of any candidate. We should not forget or forgive those actions and attitudes. How long can one blame some right wing conspircy for their poor judgement and never take personal responsibilty for their actions. They were never illegal but always seems to be immoral or bad ethics. Like writing a "non-fictional" book while during her first term or shady investment deals and spy-gate. She claims of over 30 years of experience...but is it experience that matters or is relevent? She was elected the first term was mere sympathy vote and was not even a real New Yorker. If I remember...Being First Lady either in AK or the White House are NOT an elected position. My grandfather was a farmer for over 30 years perhaps he could have ran for president as well! Don't forget what she promised the New Yorkers before her second term that she was not running for president and would serve all 6 years....sound familar? We seem to have a short memory when it comes to the Clintons. If GW Bush wasn't such a poor president, there would never be this interest in the Clintons again. They are not leaders but only govern only after its a popular majority first. Remember the last days of Slick Willy's term, they released many criminals and very close friends with those pardons for political contributions and favors? She was very much part of that process. My son was in the Navy right after 8 years of the Clintons, everything was in disrepair because of all the budget cuts and no real knowledge or respect for the military. He avoid serving in the military himself with very poor ethics. Do you think she will be any better??? Ask yourself this....Just what is her stand on the real issues? Are there any real plans than just talk? This sounds like more of the same and not for change. She stays neutral on many issues but promises change but the only platform she has is her own personal one... don't forget what Bill's role will be...She's talked about him being an Ambassador or recent nominating him as a Supreme Court judge...They would present a real problem with power and conflict of interest. Don't let apathy allow the Clintons back into the White House.. VOTE! First off, I am not a member of any political party. I am not representing any person, company or endorsing any candidate.
