Hillary as Veep
I would like to see Hillary as Veep and I would like to see Obama put her in charge of creating a viable health care system.
I would like a health care system that is not controlled by the insurance companies. The members of Congress have a great system that is controlled by the government and why can't we have the same type system? No other system will work for the good of the people.
I am a nurse and know what I am talking about. I have seen the steady decline of our medical system strangled by the insurance companies. No medical care for profit. It does not work.
I had to go to Mexico this year and join MexInsure, where I received better care than I received in the U.S. under my own coverage!
Folks, unless we are members of Congress, we as ordinary Americans, better wake up and insist that we have universal health coverage. We don't have to model it after other countries. We can model it after the coverage our own members of Congress have.
As soon as we get out of Iraq, and the craw of Haliburton and the other private contractors....we can afford to take care of our vets and our citizens. The waste is unbelievable.
I am a woman who believes that people hate Hillary because of sexism. It was apparant to me in the coverage she got all along her campaign trail. It saddened me and I hope Obama will figure out it would be great to have someone that strong and seasoned watching his back. Both Clintons are way too smart to be a government in exile. They will work their hardest in the service they are called upon to do. We need change but we also need the big picture.
The Democrats must win this election and I believe Hillary will
assure that we do. There are a lot of people who will not vote for Obama because of race and inexperience. Hillary can offset that.
