Ah, my first post on these boards...
Welcome!
Thanks! I came to the main site probably around the time of the 2004 election but haven't been back and have never seen the forums. As a poli sci student and an avid fan of politics (hope to one day represent Mass. in some form of public service) I am excited to see a bipartisan site such as this one that has some open minded people. All the other sites i've been to are too vicious if you don't support their preferred candidate.
Welcome! So, what made you support Clinton and not Obama after Edwards drop out?
Health Care has always been my most important issue. With the need for it to be Universal. I felt as though both Senator Edwards and Senator Clinton had the best Health Care plans to fit my ideals. Also, after eight years of Bush, I had Bill Clinton remorse haha.
I also honestly have not really bought the whole hope and dreams act that Obama puts on. I think it's a great way to rally support and a great campaign method but I really don't understand what makes him an agent of change moresoe than Hillary, Edwards, Biden, Dodd etc. But, in the end, I will support him as my parties nominee. The last thing I want to see is a McCain presidency with $10 gas, no more abortions, wars with Iran and probably Jamaica, and a whole lot of tax cuts for the wealthy.
Go Dems!
Jamaica? Quoi...?
