Hillary Clinton's First Ad
by Geyser

Watching and listening to Hillary's first campaign ad, I had to watch a Red line and Blue Line representing Democratic and Republican approval or disapproval. Actually, I could have closed my eyes and just listened. The Blue line crept upwards going as high, to the 80% approval. In the same manner the Republican response, disapproval all the way.

The Ad message was to tell how the current president treats the people on a number of subjects. It says we are "Invisable" to this president, he does not see us therefore, he doesn't care about us and does not do anything for us. It then names off spicific areas of need, Healthcare, Education etc. She made a strong point by naming our Soldiers also being Invisable, pointing out the poor and run down condition of Walter Reed Army Hospital.

As Hillary talked she was shown being in different parts of the country, talking to groups of people, groups in small numbers, no more then Ten in a group. I think it is a good Ad she stayed on one topic, I think the people that have not decided on a candidate will first decide if they are ready for a Female President before they even think of voting.

IMHO, there are a few different modes of thinking about a Female for president. There are those against it right off, there are those that think we are not ready for a Female President but there will be one in the short future. Those that are ready now and plan to vote for Hillary. Some just want a change. Males have dominated the presidency since day one, these people would vote for a monkey, just to have a change. The last bunch are the Clinton haters. Hate is a very strong response but, that is the feeling these people have. They basically hate Bill and believe if Hillary becomes president, Bill will be telling her what to do and what to say. They are being very foolish believing that, Hillary thinks and talks for herself her own thoughts. It doesn't rule out asking Bill his thoughts or ideas, there is nothing wrong with that. He could be named as an advisor, as Rove was to bush.
