It's about choice
The struggles have been and will be about choice. Choices about your body and choices about your politics. But also you must consider who is speaking for the various choices.
Oprah, last year she was pushing the Secret.
Maria Shriver, married and supports Arnold.
Caroline, what if any political stature does she have? Yes, the daughter of JFK. Wonderful. But why should they speak for us and who we choose to be our President? Of course they have all the right to choose, but are you sure they speak for you?
Political choices are not about evoking the past or some mythical figure. Political choices are hard and they involve looking at what we face in our future.
Thank you for offering your opinions but they are opinions. You , like Ted Kennedy, Kerry and Leahy are not the kingmakers. The people will choose. By they way, Robert Kennedy's children endorse Hillary. So, it's not that clear cut. The torch is not yours to pass or assign. What an arrogant class of aristocrats, thinking that we are in their pockets.
I mention to you some other voices, Dolores Huerta, Maxine Waters and Maya Angelou just to name a few. They speak eloquently as well. Women of the struggle. Women that have risked their lives and their blood. Why should they not be the kingmakers? Because they are not rich or aristocrats? How arrogant of you Mr. Obama.
What and how your lives will be impacted? Do you want to "hope" for a health system? or would you prefer that someone work on it from day one? Do you want to go for someone who already is negotiating away bits and pieces of that health system?
Don't listen to the idiocy of who everyone thinks can win, think who you believe in. No one knows who will or can win. But you must vote for what you believe.
