15. This is why harder questions fielded towards Chelsea are valid.
She has put herself into this campaign. She has gotten involved beyond giving speeches and talking about her time in the white house.


People need to learn that this is not a vote for school board. This is the future of the United States at stake. People cannot be tied to some vague loyalty to a person or family when it comes to their vote. Otherwise this country will never be able to move forward.

It is about issues folks. The War has taken many lives, The economy sucks, Oil is over 115 and rising faster than ever before (My guess is 200 USD by 2010) Lobbyists basically control the government. Etc..

This is not a monarchy. And people will move on. If candidate for president held on to sadness that someone decided for the other guy based on issues and how the campaign was run. Then that candidate will not have that many friends in life.

Politics is damn dirty. It will be centuries before humanity gets to the point where we no longer have to worry about this process. So in the meantime, Shit happens, alliances are broken, Shocking events happen. Allegations are thrown. And people vote. That will not change until people keep issues on their mind 100 percent of the time.
