Re: Vote for the Candidates, not their spouses

----Bill Clinton remains an issue in this election, because he continues doing shady money deals.

----As the NYTime article of 1/31/08 “After Mining Deal, Financier Donated to Clinton” shows, Bill visited Kazakhstan and, against the wishes of our state department, praised its dictator and flattered its bureaucrats in charge of mining rights. This was done to get uranium contracts worth billions of dollars for a shady Canadian businessman, Frank Giustra. Giustra has returned the favor by given $131 million dollars to foundations controlled by Bill, a private money pot for Bill, from which he can pay himself huge salaries and finance lavish offices, staff, travel, entertainment, and parties.

-----So as long as Hillary continues to let Bill commit such financial sleaze – Bill is a proper issue.

-----Furthermore, if Obama is being smeared for the mere words of his pastor, it is totally fair to attack Hillary for not only the words, but the serious crimes, of someone much closer to her, her husband, particularly since she took part in many of those crimes.
