I post this when the entry is practically in cold storage and it is way past most people’s primaries.

Bush the Second promised a different administration too, gentler than his daddy’s. And yet, not learning from this, people tout Obama because he has a similar “feel”, albeit with a Democratic label.

Whereas Clinton the Second can draw on much experience of truly having been there, from a president who presided over great prosperity. I know who I trust to do the hard job.

Hillary has “existed” for 35 years, but in terms of legislation passed, she’s no better than Barack. If she was elected, it would be more of the same, only this time with a Democratic label. BradBrown.com endorses Barack, and he encourages his 3 regular readers to do so as well.

The Skinny on Hillary

Dear brothers in arms,

We put a piece of truth about the Clintons on http://www.matrix-evolutions.com that would make a difference in the race if people could hear it. It begins:

Thank you for quoting Brazil. Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one in love with that great film :)

In reply to Robert Smelser, I agree that Daniel is the owner (and only employee) of Red Sweater but I don’t still don’t think the company is doing the endorsing; his post is about how *he* feels.

I voted today in the Massachusetts primary and I didn’t vote for Obama or Hillary.

Anibru: If his political persuasion doesn’t have a place in his weblog, where does it have a place?

Daniel,
i salute you for publishing this on your blog. I do not believe (like bbum), that you should generally separate business and politics. Politics are influencing business, so why should you keep silent ;-)
As a European, i am happy to hear you feel similar as many of us (when it comes to the picture of the US in the world etc.). I too believe it it high time for a radical change in US leadership. Away with all these Halliburtonblackwaterlobbyistdrivenreborns. The change i picture, will be good for the whole planet, not just the US, so the more important this election is. The change i picture will also achieve more to solve your problem with terrorism (do you still have one anyways?) through the change alone, than bush was ever capable to even think about.

Welcome change. Welcome Obama. And welcome back USA.

PS: hopefully the bible belt will eventually act genuinely christian and vote accordingly and not only pretend to be.

I don’t think your political persuasion(s) have a place in your blog. If I wanted to read about politics, I would go somewhere else, with more credibility. Stick to software, Daniel. For now, I’ll delete my bookmark to your blog.

@Ed: Obama actually has more experience in political office than Hilary. Obama has 10 years, Hilary 7.

Here’s why I like Obama. Beyond what I believe, beyond the issues, at the end of the day I’d rather vote for a president that chooses to represent this country as a whole instead of choosing a candidate who will simply further my agenda. I think more than any other candidate, Obama is the man who can and will pull this country back together and unite everyone.

Also, Hilary lies. I’m not such a fan of lying presidents.

If you think the president is responsible for managing the economy, you are mistaken… A president is a head of state – a leader, not a manager.
