Monday, 21st of January 2008 at 10:02:35 PMThirty (30) seconds: (n., phrase) 1. a timespan marked by the count of the fundamental common measure of time, the second, thirty times. 2. half of one minute. 3. (Presidential candidate definition) time to say whatever you want to say and sling mud at other candidates and get off-topic.
Someone, please tell these candidates to shut the F up! The debates on CNN tonight were interesting to say the least. People make mistakes in voting as elected officials. This doesn’t mean that you have to attack every single mistake that ordinary people make. This debate has not changed my mind. The mudslinging between Senators Clinton and Obama is sickening. I estimate, though, that Sen. Obama started about 90% of the fights between the two.
I believe that Senator Hillary Clinton would make the best next President of the United States. I also like Senator John Edwards and think that he would also make a great President. Sen. Clinton leads among these three because I do believe she would fight more for our rights upon becoming President. It is nearly a fact that the candidates would be shooting themselves in the foot by actively campaigning for LGBT rights. The country is in no way ready for someone to fight for our rights. That person would not get elected. Argue with me. I don’t care. It’s my own belief.
As for Senator Obama, the national news outlets are saying that black voters are more likely to vote for him. I, of course, tend to think this way. Unfortunately, from what I’m hearing from alternative news outlets, the race of the candidate does NOT influence the voting. In fact, it may be a hindrance to him gaining the black vote. It almost seems counterintuitive, but it seems to be more plausible if you really think about it. The first honest thing I have heard from Sen. Obama’s mouth is when he was asked if Bill Clinton was the first “black” President.
My thoughts on Senator Obama: I don’t trust him. I think his candidacy of “change” is full of air. What Presidential candidate doesn’t want change? I don’t see much behind his flatus. He’s not as experienced with the D.C. politics which we need. We need a fighter with clear plans that can’t be shot down. Hillary can certainly do that as can John. Hillary will be tough, strong, fair, and open to a greater extent than the others. I have a strong sense of this that somehow transcends words. Hatred of Hillary is very similar. Everyone is allowed their own opinions in this country of ours.
Also, I think, of the three, that Senator Clinton will be the least likely to bring religion into the election. This is very important to me. Obama is going on about Jesus and I don’t want to hear it. Separate religion and politics. Period. Religion does NOT belong in a campaign. It does not reflect the whole of the American people.

I don’t trust Obama either, to be honest. I’m wavering on Clinton, although, as a person, I still don’t like her. I couldn’t care less about the republicans at this point either. This race sucks.
