I am becoming very disappointed with your columns - They have turned into some sort of "rah, rah" for Hilary Clinton - I hate to burst your bubble but there are a lot of liberal democrat women who are not her biggest fan and I would rather not read your column anymore if you cannot give fair coverage to all the candidates that are running right now -
To be perfectly honest if Clinton is the nominee for the democrats and McCain is the republican candidate - I will be voting for McCain - Is this country only able to have 2 families run it? (Bush and Clinton) - If that is the case, then let Hilary be the president, then Jeb and Chelsea and let's just save our time and money on the illusion of a democracy - Am I the only American troubled by this trend?

Barack's speech

Nothing personal but you have no idea what it means to grow up in a racially diverse family - I do - and Barack is right on in his speech and it is disappointed that you can't see it - but you can't, because your experience is different - you have not been in a department store, talking to another white women and then had your black niece toddle up to you and have the other women stop talking and pretend you don't exist anymore - I have and it is mostly a generation thing and that is what Barack was commenting on, even though he could have been clearer in his wording -
Is this country ready to move forward? Don't know about the whole country, but I believe the younger generation is and God bless them - I don't know if Barack's speech helped him or hurt him, but his speech helped this country and it is just another example of why Barack is an awesome candidate
