"NC Ask Me"
In Hillary Clinton's first NC spot, the candidate urges voters to submit their questions to her at www.NCAskMe.com ... She promises to get back to them via TV with her answers. Novel. Expensive, no? Very much smacks of a televised (and much abridged) version of her successful Listening Tour in NY. Seeks to remind voters that HRC believes the contest is, as she's said on the trail often, about them.

I am a gay man...When your husband was president, he promised health for all and Gays being allowed in the Military, without discrimination....AS you know, the health care never happened and he reniqued on the Gays in the military, with the dont ask dont tell....
Gays are discriminated against in every facet of life more that Blacks and Whites.
What will YOU do as President to let Gays serve openly in the military, cause we are dying for our country while pretending to NOT be who we really are. Also, What would You do, about GAY Marriage,,,,,Why should YOU or any President control my freedoms as any other american..
I trusted Bill Clinton, and voted for him, and he turned his back on same sex people rights...WHat will you do for the Gay population to VoTE and trust you to make our rights the same as every other AMerican....why should any Gay person Vote for you.?

Hi Hillary!
How come you treat the Secret Service [who protect you], like dirt???
Is Israel protected by God in regard to U.S. pushing Her to give up land and existence as a nation. What will You do about phony "Roadmap to middle East "Peace" Plan? Answer this.!
Why don't you quit all of your untrue promises and DROP OUT !!! Everybody I talk to is sick and tired of listening to you.!!!
i do not understand why you think socialism is better than captilisim. All of your promises are based on socialism if not down right Marxism.
This country was formed for the individual to take are of ourselves. I do not want or need to have government to solve my problems. I served 21 years in the military taking down the Soviet Union and standing against everything you propose.
Socalism does not work and no matter what you think it will not, and it will destroy this country.

Ms Clinton; Would you consider asking a woman to be your Vice President? Yes or No, very simple question.
Why do you continue to try and make Obama look bad ? he is the next President and you and Bill have to deal with that....get out now and back President Obama we will respect you for that...
oh yea what have u done for me the last 35 years again????

Hillary:
I know the answer to my question,but am compelled to ask anyway. When you are discussing the solutions to the many problems we are currently facing in our country,for examole, health care, the mortgage crisis,the economy,etc.,why don't you make direct committments,with reasonable deadlines of course,that you will actually complete these most difficult tasks? I think this would send a powerful message to the American people that you are willing to take the risk by committing ahead of time to improve the quality of our lives,which is something that Senator Obama will obviously not do.

Ms.Clinton-with your talk of health care reform I think the first step is to get rid of ALL Lobbyist. How do you propose to get everyone (Congress)to vote for a health plan by the government? The Insurance companies will fight you to the death as they are making huge profits along with the drug companies who have a monopoly on drug prices. It would serve everyone to not allow drug co reps with all their talk & toys to convince Dr's to use their meds,and outlaw all drug advertising. This will be a huge mountain for you to climb and without support from both sides how will you accomplish it?
Regarding the proposal for universal healthcare, even people with serious pre-existing conditions can be insured. Is there any cost control of the premiums? If there is no cost control, insurance companies can charge high enough premiums so that high risk people cannot afford it.
Hillary,
I am a 53 yr old female truck driver and I am proud to be a pioneer of an industry where young women can make a good living for their family or help their husband make a living, just as you will be a pioneer in the White House. My concern is this, my husband is a disabled veteran and until the past year we had private health care, now we can't afford iot and we went to the VA and we were scolded for going to the ER for blood pressure meds. We were given a two month supply and promised an appointment with a doctor. to make a long story short no results. I have called and called and called . No results or for the most part no even a person. What are prople to do? He really needs medicine and so do I . We hate to feel that we have all these benefits but trying to do something so seemingly simple is frustrating. can you or will you implement a bill,law or whatever to get vet and their families the care that we need and deserve?
Why has things gotten worse since the Dems were elected in the last election. All we've heard is bringing up things that could be seen and just the same old politics as usual?

I'm a 63 year old, female, and a cancer survivor. I'm really not able to work, but my employer repositioned me so I could continue to work and have HEALTH INSURANCE. What am I suppose to do if I become disabled and have no insurance with cancer?
SENATOR CLINTON,
I HAVE 2 CONCERNS. MY 2ND GRADER IS STRUGGLING. THE SCHOOL WORK IS SO HARD. THE POUNDING OF THE EOGS PREPARATION IS DRAINING. THEIR WORK LOAD IS TOO DEMANDING. MY CHILD HAS HAD TO BE MEDICATED TO COPE AND I AM SURE I NEED TO BE TOO. SHE IS BEING TUTORED 3 DAYS A WEEK. DOES THIS SOUND NORMAL TO YOU? "NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND" AT WHAT COST. MY 2ND CONCERN, IS THE SPAINISH POPULATION IN THIS STATE AND THE MEDICAID FUNDING THEY RECEIVE. I WORK IN A DRS. OFFICE AND I SEE IT EVERYDAY. ALL THE SPAINISH HAVE TO DO IS GO TO THE HEALTH DEPT AND THEY WILL PAY FOR THEIR PREGANANCY. MY ELDERLY MOM CAN GET NO HELP, BUT WE CONTINUE TO BIRTH AND PAY FOR ALL THE MEXICANS TO HAVE CHILDREN IN THIS STATE. MOST OF THEM DON'T EVEN KNOW THEIR OWN BIRTH DAYS OR EVEN THEIR ADDRESSES. IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING ON A DAILY BASIS TO SEE THIS HAPPENING IN THIS COUNTY,
DAVIDSON COUNTY. THANK YOU
Mrs. Clinton,
I encourage fellow citizens in NC who have not had the opportunity to go to your web page and review the outstanding answers you have to many of our concerns and questions. I appreciate your original answers (often repeated by your opposition). I have often heard that immitation is the ultimate flattery!
Hillary,
I understand that if elected you are wanting to cut nursing salaries,true or false.I am in nursing 1 now and I'am going on to be LPN.I must tell you from my experience the work that a CNA does and the physical and mental toll it takes on you,trying your best to give the best possible care you can,because the way I look at it ,it could be my family and I would want to know that they receive the best care avalible.Nurses have a tremendous amount of responsiblity,sometimes working at a fast pace,but still being able to give quality care,sort of like being president,you're in constant need.People and their lives depend on us.Believe me just like you they deserve every dime they make,because they work hard for it.Please don't sacrifice healthcare,because you never know when you could be the one in need.
Thank You,

My question is in regards to your health care plan. You mentioned that everyone will have a choice of plans to choose from. This sounds great, but what will the cost differences be? Will the lower income people be left with minimal choices due to affordability? Will they not get the same coverage as those that can afford more? Please let me know. This is a huge issue.
I support your husband and would like to support you as well. Of course I have many questions, most of which have all been voiced before. I would like to know what, if anything, you plan to do about increasing the annual cost of living amount for disabled veterans? This is decreasing rather than increasing. Thank you for your reply.

You metioned in your ad that No Child Left Behind does not work . . . NO KIDDING! What are your specifics recommendations for change? Which specific changes will be embraced by all parties and actually work? My children are being taught to REGURGITATE information for the mighty TEST. How is this going to differ under your plan. I want my children to THINK!
Thank you.
Senator Clinton,
I live on the coast of NC and enjoy eating the local seafood . Lately their seems to be more over seas imported seafood for sale than local. Many commercial fisherman are selling their boats and going to other work in an effort to support their families. These are 5th and 6th generation fisherman. They say thay can not compete with the prices from imported seafood,the price of fuel and all the regulations forced on their catch. HELP!

What are your plans to help the veterans? Are there plans to speed up the files for claims? If the Veterans Administrations is so bogged down with paperwork, why do they require me to fill out the same forms multiple times? Maybe, if they reduce the amount of paperwork, they would have more time to process claims. I'm a Vietnam, 100% disabled veteran and it took over 20 years for them to finally agree I was disabled. Is this what our returning vets from Iraq are facing?
Please don't drop out. Some people are afraid of you because you're smart. My daughter needs better health care as do millions of others. Please get elected and help them.
Ann
HI MRS. CLINTON WHAT ARE YOUR PLAN FOR FUEL PRICES AND IMMAGRATION? I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO KNOW WHAT ARE YOUR FEELINGS TOWARD PEOPLE WHO HAVE APPLIED AND BEEN TURNED DOWN FOR SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS WHO NEED THEM? THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY THAT HAVE WORKED HARD ALL THEIR LIVES AND DEPEND ON THESE BENEFITS AND GET TURNED DOWN WHEN THEY ARE UNABLE TO WORK. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN CHANGE THIS COUNTRY FOR THE BEST AND GOD BLESS YOU AND GOOD LUCK
Mrs. Clinton,
What is your plans on the whole gun issue?
I am a responsible law abidding concerned citzen
I believe that gun control only effects law
abidding citizens, not the criminal that steals
his gun to do wrong. Please remember a gun has
never killed anyone.
God bless, cd barkley
Hillary...do SOMETHING....I am tired of Illegal immagration.......GET RID OF THEM.......
In your next "speech" .. just like where I am now employed in NC.....All you need to do is YELL Immagration......and they will 'run' like the cockroaches that they are........GET RID of ILLEGALS.....if nothing else, McCain will......
I am Diabetic and currently on Cobra insurance which will run out in Jan.2009. My husband is a Veteran and only covered through the Veterans, his job does not offer private insurance. Unless I pay a HUGE amount
of money monthly, I cannot get coverage for myself. I require numerous doctor visits throughout the year to maintain my condition. If you are elected, what can be done to help me and my family? Thanking you for considering my question.
My comment to you is I am tired of hearing about what our elected officials say we need. It is obvious they do not have a clue or doing something about the way the American People are getting Raped by the Oil Companies would be at the top of their list. Health Insurance would be nice, forcing me to have Insurance not so nice. Instead of spending all your time worrying about my health why do you just stand there when the American People are having a hard time buying gas to get to work. Everyone that is voted into office can be voted out of office. It is time for the American People to force our elected officials into doing their job and actually put the needs of all of us on the top of their list. Some Hillary what are you going to do about the Oil Companies and the unfair gas prices we are forced to pay?
Hello,
My question is Health care. Children can get health care. But, how can parents take good care of thier children if they cant get health care. We need health for family's. Everyone! Also, I would like to work. But, the pay here in NC is bad
if I went and got a job and would not make anything. Becouse, when add gas prices and the cost of daycare there nothing left in your pocket.
there should be some kind of tax break for stay home moms. As a mom i work just as hard as anyone.

Senator Clinton,
As a resident of North Carolina for the past 44 years, I have grown concerned that our state government can't manage our budget, which has led to high gas taxes, high property taxes, food taxes, we pay a total of at least 8.75% tax on purchases that include food. We hear at every turn that you candidates are going to bring change, but yet have I heard of any methods for plans to define those changes. It concerns me that our veterans are having such a hard time making it, especially when returning from war. It concerns me that as a life long citizen of this great country, I am growing tired of those who choose to enter and live in this country illegally, reap the benefits of this great land of opportunity, while the majority live in poverty and struggle who are legal citizens. I am for a better life for all people, but when you have come here for that life do so legally. Why should we have to adopt other languages when our primary language is English? I am also concerned that it is getting harder and harder for middle to low income families to make it. There seems to be increases in the cost of living, but there is no cost of living pay increase. Please consider these concerns and I would appreciate your thoughts and answers. Thank you for your time.
Senator Clinton,What about all of us who have lost our jobs because of the "free trade act"?I am a 58 year old woman who is not employable because my job was in the furniture industry.My unemployment ran out so long ago I have forgotten what the checks looked like.There must be something that can be done for all of us working class people with no jobs

Dear Mrs.Clinton
I for one think it would be a big change for this government to have a woman as President and that would be great(HEALTH CARE)What plain do you have for the thousands of people that were displaced because of NAFTA? and are now not working or received a seperation check, and have no,none,zipo money.I live in Lexington,NC.27292 and worked for the furiture indust.in this town for many years but the government thought or didn't think what that trade agreement would do my question is if your elected what are you going to do about that.?Will you pass a law that people that are elected to a job in our US GOVERNMENT can not receive monies from lobbiest,companys or other out side (infloince?)not sure on spelling.That NAFTA closed 7-9 factories1200NoWork
What is your stance on illegal immigration?
What is your stance on ridding this country of a people that continually scream that America belongs to them?
What is your stance on border security?
What do you think of the Ramos Compean imprisonment?
Was this a fair trial considering Johnny Sutton gave immunity to a well known drug runner that was later caught and jailed?
What do you think about taxing Social Security? After all, it was a demorat that initated this activity, Lyndon Baines Johnson.
What is your purposal on balancing an out of control spending spree in Congress?
What is your stance on the pork barrel situtation that now prevades Congress?
How are the people of this country that do not make $50 to $100,000 or more a year suppose to survive?
How are those that make minimum wage suppose to provide for their family?
Why are illegals given more rights in the job market and the employers not prosecuted?
Why is ICE being harassed for doing their job?
Why are those in the military being prosecuted for doing their jo? People die in war, innocent and guilty. It has ever been this way and will ever be.
Why do members of Congress make and get much better raises than those that elected them?
I think the salary of Congressmen and women should be cut in half. Learn to live a bit more frugally.
Sentor:A great man once give a speach"ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY"THIS WORKS ON BOTH SIDES PLOITICAL AND CILVIAN.THIS GOVERNMENT SOLD OUT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.WHY DOES THE PRESIDENT MAKE 400,000 A YEAR AND HAVE EVERY THING PROVIDED FOR HIM SUCH AS;HOUSE,FOOD,HEALTH CARE,AND WHEN HE RETIRES HE GET'S THAT MONEY FOR LIFE.IS THAT FARE?THE WAR I KNOW A FEW MEN OVER THERE AND BELIEVE THEM MORE ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON THAN MY GOVERNMENT.THE NEWS DON'T REPORT ON THE BUILDINGS BEING BUILT BY CONTRACTORS SUCH AS;SCHOOLS OR OTHER.IMMIGRATION, THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED ON IMMIGRATION AND I BELIEVE THAT ANY BODY SEEKING A BETTER WAY OF LIFE SHOULD HAVE THAT(OPPTUNITY?)BUT MAKE A LAW THAT ANY COMPANY THAT PRIVATE OR PUBLIC HAS TO PAY A STANDARD WAGE.EXAMPLE;A JOB PAYS 10.00PER HOUR TO A WORKER THAT IS TRAINED AND HAS BEEN WORKING THERE FOR YEARS THAT IF A MEXICAN IS HIRED FOR THAT JOB THE COMPANY HAS TO PAY THEM 10.00PER HOUR.JUSTIFY MAKING THOUSANDS$$WHEN WE ELECT YOU AND MAKE LESS$
Sentor:All I want to say on immigration is that this country was founded on immigration,and I believe that if any body from another country is looking to better them selves thay should have that opptunity. But the Mexican people come here and most older adults don't even bother to learn English and are given jobs.If the American people went to Mexico and couldn't speak spanish how many job would they get?I was in court with my daughter and the court had an inturpiture? for the spanish speaking people so why don't the courts have same for German,Isrial,or others.FAIR?
Why have none of the candidates shown any interest in the very severe drug problem that we have in this country? Futhermore, I`m not hearing any discussion in debates or town hall meetings about the issue.This problem affects every American in one way or another. For example, theft, murder, family devastation,prison over crowding,drug related health care cost for the tax payers. Also,how is an addict suppose to get good quality treatment when they have gone through all of their means? How do they go about getting a second chance in life? They almost always have to depend on others.
My husband spent most of his life in the military doing what all do protecting us.and he has spent 28 years in the reserves being as all military me/women do. Because of them being in the reserves and not being full time he is not able to draw his retirement till he is 60 well that is not fair he done his time and was faithful and now I think he should be able to be able to draw the money he is entiled to. Why is that he is in his 40's and can't draw till his 60 would that be something that any young man/women would want to join the mility to have to wait for? would you want to spend your life doing something and wait till you are 60 to get the money you deserve?

Senator Clinton,
The FLDS abuses women. Some sects of the Islamic faith do too. The protests of the sixties have been realized through Sen. Obama's and your campaigns. It is time for the women of the world to fight back, which is why I am supporting you. Obama promises hope to the U.S. So did your husband. I think you would garner more votes with a more positive message. I know you have sound solutions to the war, the economy, health care, child care, repairing the infa- structure, New Orleans, immigration and all the other issues facing us. Please deliver your message with hope and optimism. We in the middle class have been over burdened for too long. Throw us a life line please.

I have 2 children in school. I haear on your add that the "No Child Left Behind Act" is not working. I agree it is not working. Children have no room to be individuals or think for them self. all they do is memorize "stuff" for a test, and if they don"t "make the grade" they can be held back in that grade. that is not right My oldest daughter is a straight A student throughout the year however she panics when the EOG comes around and she does fine but she worries that she will not pass. the added stress is unreal. I agree that they need to be assessed to see if they know what they need to but this is not the way. It is my understanding this is how we "measure" to see if our teachers are doing what they need to. HA! not once have I seen a teacher being tested in this manner. this is so discouraging to children and it starts at a very ealy age teaching them that if they dont make the grade they do no measure up with others their age.

Hi, Senator Clinton;
Just wanted to say that I am very proud of you for taking the time to run for President. Most of the people who are qualified will not do this.
Kudos to you.
Now, I am a senior citizen (68) and would like to have your solution to the help we receive from the Medicare program. Some, such as myself have presceiptions that run approximately 1-1/2 time MORE than we receive from the government on a monthly basis. The drug plan does not cover the ones that REALLY need the help, and Medicaid is not an option for drug help ( only Medicare benefit payment) What can WE do as a country to help the seniors have a better quality of life?
what are you going to do about all the "illegals" my husband lost his job because he refuse to learn spanish.he had been with them for 25 years.. .the company hires illegals with a temp service..that way the company wont get caught.. also my brother in law lost his job because a temp service came to another location, which puts illegals to work.. and cut his pay by $4.oo per hour.. they are doing nothing but lowering our standard of living,, whilE we pay in higher prices, higher health care.. and NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING..
NO NO NO AMINISTY..!!!!AND THE ILLEGALS HAVE THE GUTS TO PROTEST IN OUR COUNTRY... WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS...
ok, now you are acting like a big baby,, handing out "i'm not bitter" stickers.. if the truth were told we are all bitter.. bitter that congress doesnt do anything to help, bitter that illegals get more help than citizens do. bitter that our students must learn spanish, and very bitter that when you call any agency especially goverment offices the instructions are in spanish ... we are trying to work extra jobs just to keep up and find we are falling behind more and more.. when you are a salary worker or get social security your wages dont go up,, well social security did get a so called "raise" but then the cost of the health care went up and took it.. so yes a lot of us in North Carolina are BITTER..
It has come to my attention that many soldiers are being denied promotions because they have not reinlisted. This is not right. Many of these soldiers are serving in Iraq and are being denied simply because they have decided not to continue their career in the Army. This is wrong. They have served and deserve the respect they have earned. Please address.

I just lost my job yesterday. How can you help me this week? Not 10 years from now when you plan to bring jobs to NC.
Dear Mrs. Clinton, If you were president, what would you do about the immigration problem?
Dear Hillary,
My grandparent's came hear from Germany,They had to live and work hard to learn the way,and learn the language of the Untied States,Now we have all these immigrants coming here and refusing to even try to learn the language,en said my children now have to learn theirs ,what are you going to do about all the illegals here?
Good Morning,
I guess my concern is the economy. I don't think any true American objects to paying there fair share of taxes. What we really object is the wasteful spending being done by our so called representatives. We have not given our children and grandchildren the security for there future. My husband and I are retired and we feel our security is gone also. We are blessed by being healthy so far, but worry about our health care. I guess my question is how do we stop the waste and take care of business. E.Carmen
Sen. Clinton, Let me qualify myself before asking the question.
I am a white male proud of my southern heritage.My father before me as well as his father and his father before him were died in the wool southern Democrats. I am also so proud of my heritage that I am a member of The Sons of Confederate Veterans of which my G-Grandfather was a veteran of that uncivil war.
My question is I have become disenfranchised with all 3 major candidates. Tell me why I should not be disenfranchised with you,and lend you my support.
Yours Sincerly Robert Smith
Dear Hillary,
I am praying that you can help with health insurance. The co-pays have escalated along with the premiums. I have had to turn down treatments this year for the first time in my life, due the co-payments of our Insurance company.
I truly hope that healthcare will become affordable for all.
My husband and I feel Barack and Hillary would be
the ideal ticket. I to remember the Clinton years and the long republican years that followed. I feel you are more qualified to be our President, in these troubled times.
Gods speed.

I was wondering for all the struggling families, do you plan on raising the minimum wage? It seems the harder my family works the farther behind we become. I tried to go to school, but have to wait again to go. My husband works all the time and I can not seem to find a job! What are we supposed to do? Shelly
What do you plan on doing about the all the illegal immegrants that are here taking the American jobs away from the Americans because some can speak English and Spanish. This is America shoudn't people have to learn English. You can not even go to McDonalds anymore and expect someone to understand you and you are the one speaking English. I think that they need to learn English instead of the American people having to learn Spanish. What do you think?
i am disabled and food prices are going up ,and disel is terrible,MY QUESTION IS TO YOU,WHAT IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT THE HIGH FUEL PRICES AND THE FOOD PRICES?I HAVE TO GO TO THE DOCTORS SOMEHOW.IF I CANT AFFORD FUEL,I CANT AFFORD SOMEONE TO TAKE ME.ALSO ANOTHER QUESTION,WHAT IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT THE INMATES THAT HAVE BEEN SITTING JAIL FOR MONTHS OR YEARS AWAITING FOR TRAIL,WASTING OUR TAX MONEY?THEIR CASES ARE PUT TO THE SIDE::::::::::::
I know that there are alot of people on the verge of losing their homes. I also know that millions of americans have huge credit card debit. I feel that this debt is partly the blame for people losing their homes. High interest rates on credit cards is not helping anyone. In fact, 21 percent and higher was at one time considered illegal and is now common place. People with large debit and these high rates are hook to this debt for life with no hope of ever getting out from under it. Every bank and every store you walk into pushes their own version of credit card because for them, this is free money especially when they hook you for life. This in my opinon is just wrong, and something must be done.What if anything, will your adminstration do about this legal loan sharking? I feel this country is just begining to feel the effects of this problem and I think the country will be seeing more problems from this in the future. I think that our entire economy will be affected by this in time.
We need to have new law that states you are not an american citzen just because you were born in the USA when your parents are from another country and they are not an american citizen. I know that this country was founded on immigration,and I believe that if anybody from another country is looking to better themselves thay should have that opportunity. However, ENGLISH was the chosen language when our country was established. But the Mexican people come here and most older adults don't even bother to learn English and are given jobs.If the American people went to Mexico and couldn't speak spanish how many job would they get? What would their government give them. Would they teach English in their schools? I do not believe that the American people/government should bow down to the Mexican immigrants that come here and I DEFINITELY DO NOT AGREE WITH THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT GIVING THEM EVERYTHING FOR FREE. They come to NC illegally and they actualy are living better than the citizens do. They don't worry about health care because its free. Education is free. Housing is free. Also, the money they make is being sent back to Mexico. We have more gangs due to them being here. They drive drunk and drive without insurance, steal tags off of vehicles and steal gas. The schools want our children to learn spanish when it should be required of an immigrant to learn english. Also if we have interpreters for spanish speaking people so why don't the courts have same for other people from other countries. FAIR? Next I have been working for over 38 years at the same job and I am tired of paying taxes for everyone from other countries to get everything free. With all that said, Senator Clinton what could you do to handle this big problem and also what can you do about the price of GAS? What happen to the oil in Alaska? In the 1970's when we had a gas shortage that is when the oil line from Alaska was started. My understanding that this oil would be for the United States; where is going? Thank you.
if you had said in the debate,," I wont give a title of reverend or preacher to j. wright or anyone who can enter a church walk onto the pulpit and take our Lords name in vane,saying g.d.and speak of hate,..and if that is a character trait in a "preacher" you find acceptable for 20 years+ and describe him as "he gets a little rough sometimes" is beyond my comprenhension"" had you said this or say this in the near future you might help yourself.black or white saying gd is wrong, you missed a chance.
1)I would like to know what you are going to do about all the illegal aliens in this country that are draining our economy. If we give them amnesty the USA will become another 3rd world nation.
2) What do you think about the Fair Tax and please don't respond if you have not read the book. Thanks.
we want domestic oil and more refineries we wanted this for years but you and others in congress have not allowed this we dont want government health care. and for the nurse who made an entry above your salary will be cut or wont go up anymore-look at healthcare pay scales in others countries with socilizied medicine. and also you ms clinton took more pork out of washington to your state than exxon made in profits and that was our tax money not from out of our retirement 401 funds.we should always be a nation of free enterprise.and when are you gonna expose hussein obama for the fraud he is.and if you make the illegal mexicans citizens then they bring their older and sick family members over to fill up our already full hospitals and medicare is hard pressed as it is without adding to it.maybe we should all boycott letuce this year) enforce the laws and they will stay home. and if you raise mim wages its only gonna help rich kids in their summer jobs. just bring down the current hi prices by getting our own oil. until there is an alternative.science use to say garlic was good for us use to say chocolate was bad for us use to say coffee was bad and now all these theroys had been wrong and so is al gore and the rest of the global warming kooks, without oil WE our bones will be fossils found in rocks in the future. screw the reptile or bird who nest near the oil rig and screw the environmentalist wacoos they are just like the 14% of the people who dont want to hear the words Merry Christmas, they all need to sit down shut up and deal with it because the majority of us want to pass oil rigs on the side of our roads we want prayer in our schools Merry Christmas and God on display. and those who dont like it can get over it.you have been a senator long enough to have at least tried to make things better but have failed to do so except for the pork taken to your state and so has obama, neither of you have much if anything to bragg about as senators and for that matter neither has j. McCain IF mccain feingold was in effect even now your campain would have been over in feburary why not get it abolished ? the approval of congress is low and you wonder why??when was the last time you pumped a tank of gas?
My husband and I are in the process of adopting our first child, Alex, from Guatemala. After a year of researching different adoption options, in February 2007 we decided to adopt Internationally. Recently there has been political turmoil within Guatemala jeopardizing the adoption. We understand that Guatemala wants to rid corruption from the adoption process. However, the children of Guatemala (our son) suffer while the politics are being played. The organization that the US supports financially , UNICEF, has done very little to support the International adoption process. UNICEF is adovocating to halt all adoptions in Guatemala jeopardizing the adoptions that are "in process", approx. 3,000 cases. Currently, President Bush has taken no stance on this issue. My husband and I would like to know how you as the president would support the thousands of US citizens in limbo...deseparately awaiting to bring their children home?
GREEN POWER:InN.Myrtle Beach,Horry County has these two power co-ops-Horry Electric &Santee-Cooper.These co-ops extracts the gasses out of the landfill to produce power.the gasses extrac-ted has a change of state process from a gas to a solid formation.this solid material is what is used to fuel the system that produces the power.there is no waste envolved.totally recyclable system.Will you look into that as one of your global acts?/John Black MONROE,N.C.
Senator Hillary Clinton, future President of USA
We were very proud of your campaign here in N.C.
You are for all people in N.C. It appears you know the needs to keep us safe, to keep us healthy, are looking to help everyone have jobs, to keep our transportation moving at a price we can afford. However, in many of your ads you mention Obama. Is it possible you could not mention is name? Your ads have kept his name out there from Day 1. He benefits from your ads.
He has never, (none that I have seen)had his own ideas. He bounces off what you say, your ideas. Kindly like Gracie and Allen, Lucy and Desi. You are too smart not to have noticed that he is only a person of speeches not original ideas. Even though he is a scholar I have not seen in him what it takes to think smart and think quickly as I have seen in you. I do not believe
he has what it takes to lead our country. Perhaps, you could say the Democratic Opponent, would you please not give him the publicity that could help his purpose? And I believe that is to play off your ideas. Even though it is a compliment for someone to take our own ideas and pretend that they thought of such a great idea.
I loved the gas ideas of the short term summer savings and then a long term plan. He and his campaign group borrowed that idea quickly. You can handle the job as our leader. Good Luck here in N.C. Will you please not give him any of your FREE advertising in the days ahead?
Mrs. Clinton, I hope president, It sure would have nice to have had you or your husband to come to my school (Balls Creek Elem.) while you were doing your tour of NC. It is in Catawba County. I love what President Clinton did for our country. He got us out of DEBT. My school is about 700 or so students. I am only a teacher assistant, if you make classrooms smaller my job will go. I am so close to retirement about four years. We got a good raise this year but it put me into a higher income braket and I had less bring home pay, I am a single parent (my boys are grown) but it is hard sometimes to make ends meet.I have nothing bad to say about you or your husband I think you both or great people. If your out our way come see us.
