Saddened by today’s events at the DNC Meeting

The great thing is that a compromise has been reached to split the delegates among both remaining Democratic candidates; however the backlash and anger at the event was not becoming of the party. Right now the U.S. Presidential race has created history with the two remaining candidates vying for the nomination being a Black male and a Woman. Never in our history have we seen either come this close to running for the top political seat in our country, but in the midst of this event, I feel history is being tarnished.

The Clinton campaign is losing in the popular, delegate and super-delegate vote; the party as a whole is clearly backing Senator Barack Obama for the nod; her campaign is racking up millions in debt by the day, but yet she will not concede the race to the better of the two at this moment. Leading up to the primaries this year, Senator Hilary Clinton had an overwhelming majority in favor of voting for her to be the first Woman President of the United States, but the tides have turned. Now with Clinton being dealt a blow at the DNC meeting today it appears that her campaign is ready to drag out this race further delaying the Democrats offensive against the Republican nominee, Sen. John McCain and debate the merits of his platform.

At the meeting today many Clinton supporters lashed and spewed ignorant, negative comments that have no place in a organized political forum. The meetings were meant to answer questions that hung in the balance and bring about unity, however, the Clinton campaign and supporters are hindering this process. I understand the ego is bruised, no one wants to be a quitter, but the tactics that former President Bill Clinton used to win his initial campaign will not work in this matter. Regardless of whom she may think is the better, more qualified candidate, the fact remains is that she has lost and can only win if all the super delegates begin to back her; a feat that is more than likely not going to happen.

In light of this ordeal, it is apparent that Senator Clinton is not ready for the White House. If she can not handle conceding when all the cards are down and negotiating a compromise, it appears that she is no better than our current Chief of Staff, President Bush. President Bush did not want to concede that the evidence used to initiate the Iraq War was circumstantial in nature, and pride would not allow him to back down. Look at the end results of those actions: trillions pulled out of our economy to fund a war that started with a solid basis, but continues with no merit, misappropriation of our valuable Military resources and the lost of thousands of our Men and Women in Uniform.

There is no anger behind this blog just a sadden stance. Regardless of whose party one may support or who is one's favorite, the Clinton campaign is making a mockery of our political system and is teetering the balance of bringing all out shame on an organized campaign system. If an appeal is filed, would we not consider this a repeat of the after effects in the 2000 Presidential campaign? The election that many analyst, constituents and politicians feel the Republicans stole because of appeals, recounts and recants? Think about it like this, regardless of whom you support, do we really want another leader that fuels their stance based on encouraging propaganda and inciting controversy? Let me be the first to answer by saying not I.

Good Facts of Life - By Bill Gates

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world willexpect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. Youwon't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparentshad a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whineabout your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they arenow.. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothesand listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So beforeyou save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation,try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but lifeHAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'llgive you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn'tbear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers offand very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Dothat on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually haveto leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
