PREDICTABLE CLINTONIAN POLITICS AND POLITRICKS vs REAL "CHANGE" -- Although, I'm not ready to claim Barack Obama, John Edwards or anyone as my final presidential candidate of choice, the truth of the matter is the Clinton's are getting what they have dished out for years. This time they are getting bested by someone who actually has a balanced combination of personal and political integrity. This is the "CHANGE" that matters to me as an Independent. This is the kind of "CHANGE" that political packaging, self-entitled rhetoric, scripted moments, slogan co-opting, and tainted "experience" can never compete with successfully. Mrs. Clinton's candidacy and campaign tactics are DOA for 2008. Hillary Clinton's destiny has already been defined by the millions of genuine "CHANGE" agents across America --- also known as clear-minded and aware voters. For them the future is clear and free of the Clinton, Bush and other predictable political parasites.
AL GORE TO ENDORSE BARACK OBAMA -- Expect a reasoned endorsement from Al Gore soon for Barack Obama. Justifiably, there's no genuine political love for the Clintons from the Gores. Since Gore's own presidential election effort, and his distancing from the Clintons, Gore has been looking toward the future. When was the last time we ever saw a photo-op with Al and Bill in the same picture or place. A picture without the Clintons is worth thousands of votes for candidate Obama. Former vice president Al Gore will be a president Obama's best asset on environmental policy. A president Obama will give Gore an enhanced opportunity to effect environmental policy. The opportunity will be beneficial and complementary for each of their political objectives, along with their compatible national and global outlooks. Additionally, it will further galvanize Independents and Democrats around a indisputable common issue.
WHY CANDIDATE BILL RICHARDSON'S CAMPAIGN IS ENDING -- There is a nexus between illegal immigration, NAFTA, some Hispanic voters, and the New Mexico border. Governor Bill Richardson, a cabinet member under former president Bill Clinton, will return the favor and will join the Hillary Clinton campaign. His position as a Clinton stalking horse among Hispanic voters across the country, and particularly in the southwest U.S. (as former New Mexico governor), will most likely get him appointed to the vice presidential spot if Mrs. Clinton becomes the Democratic presidential nominee. The possibility that he was asked by the Clintons to dropout of the presidential race, so that Hillary Clinton doesn't lose too many Hispanic and southwest votes in a tightening presidential race, is an effort to return Richardson's longstanding favor to them. Politics or politricks? You decide. Speaking of politricks, just like in the case of 2004's Florida Republicans, perhaps some credible news organization or election authority will also take a closer look at the actual hand counted paper ballots versus the machine tally in New Hampshire as well. Hopefully, unlike Florida, they won't disappear too soon. Unlike polling and projections, mathematics IS an exact science. -- BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!
HILLARY CLINTON AND NEW YORK'S INDEPENDENTS -- New York City Independents (www.IPNYC.org) know Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is no real friend of genuine democracy, full inclusion, and Independents. Her record of strangling Independents in NYC is a little-known ugly history to most. Though she spins her out-of-state campaign rhetoric to have the appearance of being a friend of Black and Independent voters, many Black New Yorkers know the real deal. They see past the phony "Black" speaking cadence used to address mostly Black audiences. Ask members of the New York County Independence Party (www.IPNYC.org), Independence Party of New York (www.IPNY.org), and especially 1992 presidential candidate and Independent activist Dr. Lenora Fulani. In 2005, Clinton engineered a bogus bigot-bating campaign to have Fulani fired as an executive member of the IPNY before accepting their support. Clinton's scam alleged Fulani was an anti-Semite. New York State's Supreme Court decided in Fulani's favor, and upheld Black New York Independents' right to fair and equal representation as voters --- as in African American voters being denied voting rights and democracy by a Democratic politician. New York State Supreme Court Judge Emily Jane Goodman stated that "While the Court is not going to speculate on the motive for bringing this Petition now...it appears to be more political than philosophical." Black Independents now have more empowered representation within the state, including Dr. Fulani's potential run for New York City mayor in 2009. History and facts, no matter how hidden for present day campaign purposes, have a way of sustaining themselves among genuinely informed voters. New York's Black voters remember all too well. The likeable First Lady Clinton of the 1990s is definitely not an electable or the best 2008 presidential candidate anywhere in America.
