If you think Obama is a True Democrat I chanllenge you to check out his Senate voting record at Washington Post.com. If you want &amp;quot;CHANGE&amp;quot; voting for the best woman canindate we have ever seen is &amp;quot;CHANGE&amp;quot;. Obama will win the male vote because he his a man, and not because is a better canidate. One more thought if you are a woman and you are not voting for Hilary be sure to expain to your daughters how you had the chance to make a difference in their future and you failed them.This election will effect the advancements for the next twenty or thirty years..&lt;/p&gt;

I thought that was his current job, so tell me if he his doing poorly at his current job? What makes people think Obama is going to be a better President then he is a Sententor? He did not cast key votes in the Senate, and his one claim to fame ( not voting for the Iraq war ) . With his Muslim background I think it is fair to wonder &amp;quot; Why Not &amp;quot; . At the time all the intelligence we had suggested Iraq had WMD's. &lt;/p&gt;

Electing Hilary Clinton would be real &amp;quot;CHANGE&amp;quot;. They say men and woman don't think alike, so if that is true men have had 40plus chances to get it right. Let's not pass over the most qualified for the most popular. I think Oprah should be ashamed of herself for trying to pull the wool over our eyes. She has managed to betray two groups in one stroke - Woman &amp;amp; Blacks. &lt;/p&gt;

Not just in the United State, but all around the world. It takes the most powerful country in the world to make that change first. Then maybe the rest of the world will start to women as equals and respect their opinions. If we elect Obama some one with far less qualifications. We will have said that even in the United States woman are NOT equal. If these are the only two canidates to choose from this should be a no-brainer.Let's hope the women of Texas,Ohio, and Pennsylyania stand strong. It's time for our Military's &amp;nbsp;Mothers,Sisters, and Daughters voices to be heard. Stand up and show the world who you are.&lt;/p&gt;
