2. Ironworker? Barack
He has the only plan to keep good-paying, traditional industry jobs in the US. Hillary isn't interested unless it is "green" Nothing wrong with a green job, but iron men and women need support also.

5. Ah, but as it turns out, many of our members are working on windmill projects
out west right now. I may go out to Nebraska myself this summer to work on that, never been there. :hi:

9. That leaves out voting for Obama. Kennedy hates windmill projects...
and tried to shut them down where his sailing playground is.

(any more hints?)

11. Indeed, there is a lot of growth there
Once built, it would be nice to have some protections to keep the jobs here, whether they are green or not.

3. Obama. Because true leadership demands support across such lines.

7. Clinton
If you want to keep your job and health insurance, she's the best choice.

14. I'm a biker, a steelworker and business owner
....and I'm voting for Clinton. My reasoning is that I made enough during the nineties to retire at age 45 in 1999. That was, without a doubt, the most prosperous times in the U.S., in my lifetime. I'm ready for some more good times, and I know the Clinton's have done it before. I don't know jack about Obama, except that he is a senator from Illinois who wants to be president.

Take it for what it's worth!

15. Read This
The US Govt is buidling a highway from Laredo Texas to Canada. It is called the NAFTA Super-Highway. (Dont believe me? Google NAFTA Highway). Why do you think they are doing this? They are doing this so Chinese ships can off-load all their Wal-Mart Junk without having to pay the Teamsters and Longshoremen. Wake up you stupid American Fucks.....

17. Vote for the candidate who best represents your interests.
After the primary, the choice is easy. Vote for the Democrat.
