Weekend and Politics

This weekend is before the New Hampshire primary.  The players have not changed.  But standings did.  

Hillary Clinton is a good woman.  She has values that I admire.  

Barack Obama is a good man.  He has values I admire too.

There is one more candidate on the ballot still that should be mentioned, Bill Richardson.  He has not given up his campaign for president.  I think he could shape some of the issues of the Democratic party.

I would hope  that the front runners will listen to all of the candidates that have dropped out of the race.  Joe Biden and Chris Dodd are good leaders, their ideas will shape the country.  They just did not have what was needed to inspire the Iowa or American public. I do not think this will be the end of those two in politics.

John Edwards has many things that will help him in his future.  I do not think it is his time to be president yet.  He has a lot of great qualities but maybe his talents still need to be on a local level, not international. 

The Democratic primary is the one that I am following. Hillary is for me, her stand on veterans health care roped me into supporting her, but any of these fine men would have my support.   Even Edwards.  

One vote does matter.
