Hillary Clinton will say whatever she needs to say whenever she needs to say it to drum up support. The woman is full of hot air...she's just much better at making people believe she isn't than Kerry was. I respect her tenacity and ability to play the political game, but she's about as fake as a politician can be. If the country moves 3" forward with her in office, I would be truly impressed. Obama is at least sincere, and has his heart in the right place...despite needing a little more guidance on where it's ok to chop funds and where it isn't. I also think Rudy is middle-of-the-road enough to actually get things done should he take up the presidential office. His biggest stumbling blocks are that he comes off almost as fake as Hillary and Bush has created a very anti-Republican environment, so people naturally shy away from him. I think we need moderation in the White House now, more than ever.
I think we should all just vote for Stephen Colbert. He is America...and so can you!
I also want to add...I hope Hillary Clinton proves me wrong when she makes it to the White House (I think she is going to win). A strong female president and a strong black president I believe are just what we need to allow this country to move to the next level of tolerance and equality. However, I don't believe that tolerance has to be at the expense of religious freedom, and that's where I will always differ from Democratic extremists. Separation of church and state was as much intended to protect the church from state intervention as it was to protect the state from church rule, yet for some reason, the popular interpretation ignores the protection of religion. The world is a bitter enough place...attacking faith only makes it worse.
Giuliani's camp has no official stance on space exploration that I can tell other than vague promises to "aggressively" pursue it.
Based on what I know of her tenure in the Senate and my interactions with people that work(ed) on the Hill and knew her, I don't think she's nearly as fake as some people believe. I think a lot of people are just still holding on to the hostility drummed up by the GOP when Bill was President.
Given what Giuliani has said about the war on terror and torture, I really have no desire to vote for him. He and Romney are fighting amongst each other to see who can take it even further than Bush has and I think that's the wrong direction, entirely.
Haven't spoken to you in awhile. This post has nothing at all to do with politics, though I'll probably get into that later. I just wanted to catch up and also to put you in touch with one of my old friends. I knew Keri Bean years ago, and she tracked me down today. It turns out she's a sophomore at A&M now with hopes of working at NASA. I think she's already doing some volunteer work there. Anyways, I figured you guys would have a lot to talk about if nothing else; she's very intelligent and has always been enthusiastic about space research. Her aim screen name is "aggieastronaut" if you want to drop her a line.
