David Plouffe
[Read the article: Cashing in on the Clinton campaign]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]None of the letters so far mention Mr Plouffe. He just does not make so much considering that he is a campaign manager and so far seems to be doing quite well in what is assuredly a hectic job.
It points to Sen Obama's good personnel selections.
The letters just go after for the fat cats.
Now how much does Hillary pay her managers ( previous and current)?

Racism is more easily overcome
[Read the article: Thank you, Rush Limbaugh!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I was questioned on this. Racism has not been around for a million years. It is less deeply rooted. And like a younger weed should be more easily removed.
Moreover, the physical differences are greater. Racism is really just a color difference. It should not exist but it does. There is more of a difference between males and females. That has to exist to maintain humans on earth.
What we make of it is of course open to question.
There is much of both recorded on Blue Amberols. "My wife's gone to the country, Hooray" and so on. Such things are still considered funny. What's recorded on Blue Amberols about race is no longer considered to be funny.
I like Salon but on this one, I got tired of the nasty stuff in the letters so I quit reading them.
I went looking for Messiah College with Google Earth. It's near New Cumberland, Pennsylvania where my mother grew up. Parts of my family were in Harrisburg since the 18th century. President Eisenhower retired near Messiah College and there is an association. Click on my name and go see.

Politicians
[Read the article: Remember the Lieberman "hack attack"?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]We have 100 senators and 435 Representatives. Some are Donkeys and some are Elephants. Lieberman can't decide what kind of an animal he likes.
Oh well, my point really is that these people pass laws that affect the internet.
How many of them have any real knowledge about it? Especially the three senators who want to be president.

President Eisenhower
[Read the article: No, Hillary Clinton shouldn't be winning]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am waiting to see what the CNN interviews at Messiah College will do in Pennsylvania. This will begin on Sunday, April 13 at 8 PM. It is not a debate.
Both Democratic candidates will be interviewed separately for the Compassion Forum. There will be preliminary at 10 PM on Saturday, April 12. The times are all Eastern Times.
Messiah College is near Harrisburg towards Gettysburg. This is where President Eisenhower retired. There is an Eisenhower Campus Center there.
This will be an opportunity for the two Democratic candidates to present their views.

Spell checker
[Read the article: Obama and the white working class]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"We hear that’s its hard for some working class people to get behind you’re campaign."
Your spell checker did not catch this one. Spell checkers have made everyone sloppy including you. A spell checker just looks for valid words in a table. One word at a time.
On Saturday at 10 PM eastern, CNN will have its first look at the event at Messiah College.
The Compassion Forum itself will be at 8 PM eastern on Sunday. Also on CNN. It is not a debate.

TV ads
[Read the article: Opus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There's big money in those prescription drugs advertised on TV. Patient comes in and there is a lot of pressure on the doctor to prescribe the stuff.
If one takes the time to become knowledgeable of herbal things, one won't go chasing this junk.
Pain killer? Try Ginger and Turmeric together. On the spice shelf in the grocery store.
Click on my name for Sunday's TV show.

If one takes the time to become knowledgeable of herbal things
[Read the article: Opus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The idea is to learn how to use herbs. They can be obtained in capsules in health stores or on line. Wal-Mart and grocery stores now carry some of them.
I well remember when there was an attempt by the drug industry to block the sale of herbal remedies. That was done under the first Clinton administration. I forget the guy's title, a red head who wore very thick glasses. He was President Clinton's hatchet man.
Every health food store in the country joined the drive to write to Congress. They had red tags on everything that would be banned. The result was the greatest storm of letters received in Congress in history. That ended the problem. The lobby was defeated.
This is why one candidate won't accept money from lobbyists. Find out more by clicking on my name. That CNN TV show is tonight.
Someone mentioned White Willow Bark. It is very good, Add Devils Claw and Yucca for a good combination. Willow Bark was used in ancient Greece. Yucca is used by Western Indians. Most herbs are best in combinations.

Endorsements
[Read the article: Obama and Clinton fizzle in Philly]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Now, all of the major newspapers in Pennsylvania have endorsed Obama.
The student newspaper at Pennsylvania University has endorsed Hillary.
Good old Penn University. Good old Penn U.
Good old P U.
Aside from the ancient joke, I wonder how the editor of this student paper is now getting along with his fellow students.

Hillary bashing
[Read the article: "She's not as bad as you think"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I've never done that. My point is simply that Sen Obama is somewhat better and being male and dark skinned has a much better chance of negotiating in Iraq and Iran.

What next?
[Read the article: Opus]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]So Steve Dallas has discovered Hillary. Gee whiz.
I guess the real subject is Rev Jeremiah Wright. The truth is that Wright isn't going to push Sen Obama into any political decisions. Hillary is just making use of this by resurrecting a dead horse.
The real question is what will President Obama do in the future.
