Today, C-Span featured a stump speech that Hillary Clinton gave in Ohio. I love how even though I am not in that state, in that place, I can still hear about her awesome ideas! As far as I have heard she is one of the only candidates that speaks about college loans and students trying to pay for college. Hillary actually knows what a pell grant is and will actively seek to stop the outrageous interest fees charged by private college loan lenders. When I heard this and her earnest feelings on the issue, I literally got goose bumps.
By why is it that the media focuses on Hillary "getting upset" over campaign issues or "rebounding from 
Obama's last comments." Why must the media make this election sound like a nasty high school clique fighting. Can't they just tell people what her policy is? Can't we learn more about these candidates than who has money and who doesn't? Three years from now will anyone care about these silly things? I doubt it! How about it reporters . . . give us the news and convey the Candidates policies instead of entertainment-esque trash?!

I am not an American, but don't think that the campaign is not fun to watch from Germany. You ask valid questions and I am sad to say that the circus type of media coverage happens everywhere in the world. I really hope she'll get to be the first American female president. Not because she is brilliant... just because I don't think a man can do the job better anyway. Obama is not a bad choice either considering the possible political implications. In the end, it doesn't matter who is elected. What matters is what that person will do for the USA and for the world. Only one thing: no more Bushes! ;)

Well, now you know exactly how it feels to watch the MSM treat our candidates year in and year out.
When was the last time you read something POSITIVE about a Republican?
