Rudi Guilliani

Hilliary Rodham Clinton
Born : October 26, 1947
Colleges :
Wellesley College, Yale Law School
Jobs :
Rose Law Firm
Board of Directors, Wal-Mart
Other Corporate Boards
On The Issues :
Abortion : Pro-Choice
Healthcare :
Private, Affordable
Iraq :
unable to guarantee Troop Withdrawals before 2013
Organisations :
Center For American Progress
Citizens For Responsibility and Ethics in Washington
Media Matters
Ratings :
Amaericans For Democratic Action : 75%
American Conservative Union : 9%
ACLU : 75%
NARAL : 100% (Pro-Choice
NRA : 'FAIL'
My Take :
Hilliary has the credentials as a Bonifide Liberal - but, is no Friend
of Labor and appears to be a Hawk - She is also a member of the DLS (Democratic
Leadership Council) - the Corportist Wing of the Democratic Party and Takes Money
From Lobbyiusts Rupert Murdoch held a fundraiser for Hilliary - that should be enough
to scare you if you are a Hilliary Supporter - In My Opinion - she is a smarter BUSH - and
therefore Much More Dangerous. Also, The Possibility of America
being ruled by TWO FAMILIES would be anathema to Our Founders who abhored the idea
of an American Aristocracy.
Update :
Hilliary has been caught in several 'embellishments' (lies ?) and has made supportive
comments about John McCain while making disparaging comments about Barak Obama .
. . It is clear that she does NOT have the country's or her party's best Interests
at heart - but, rather her own ambitions . . .
If she Doesn't get the Nomination - Will she run as an Independent like Joe Lieberman
?
Is she trying to sabotauge Barak Obama so she can run in 2012 ?
The mere fact that these questions reveals her unfitness for the office of President
of the United States. |
Rudolph William Louis "Rudy"

Mayor of New York
On The Issues :
Abortion : Was Pro-choice - now,
Pro-Kife
Healthcare :
Not known
Iraq :
Continue present policies
Organisations :
Unknown
Ratings :

My Take :
Rudi is all about Rudi . . . He is a Liar and every bit as incompetent
and Corrupt as GW BUSH. His Descisions relating to his choice of placement of his
'Emergency Center in the PRIME Target of the WTC, His annulled mariage of 14 years
to his cousin, his announcement of his second Divorce at a news conference before
he told his wife,, his choice of Berny Kerik for Homeland Security, his profiteering
off of 911 with his 'Security Consulting' Company all call into question his Judgement
and character.
I would rather be Waterboarded than live under a Guillianni Presidency

Fred Thompson

Barak Hussien Obama
Born : August 4, 1961
Colleges :
Occidental College
Columbia Law School
Yale Law School
On The Issues :
Abortion :
Pro-Choice
Healthcare :
Private, Affordable
Iraq :
In Favor of Withdrawal, but, unable to guarantee
removable before 2013
Organisations :
Congressional Black Caucaus
Ratings :
Unknown
My Take :
At This point (1 Nov 2007) - Barak is not ready to be President - his lack
of expirience and, in my opinion - He should get rid of his 'Handlers' and simply
be himself . . . his 'Handlers' are not doing him any favors . . . would love to
see him be Vice-Presidential Candidate.
Update :
Barak Obama continues to surprise everyone, especially me. He has run an
AMAZING Campaign - raising money from hundreds of thousands of small individual
contributors, and, while he does have SOME corporate sponsors - their total contributions
amount to a small percentage of his total money. His political machine is incredible,
and he has tried to stay above the fray and typical political playbooks. My opinion
of him has changed - I will most likely vote for him. The only concerns I have are
the identities of some of his advisors - such as : Carrol Quigley, Zebigev
Brezenski, and some Milton Friedman Economists . . . However, he still appears to
be the lesser of the three evils.

John McCain

Johnny Reid "John" Edwards

University Of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill
On The Issues :

Universal
Iraq :
In
Favor of Withdrawal, but, unable to guarantee
removable
before 2013
Organisations :
Council On Freign Relations, Committee on US/Russian
Relations
Ratings :
Unknown
My Take :
John Edwards' problem is that he is not as atriculate as you would expect a lawyer
to be . . . I believe he is genuine abd honest and would make a good, if uninspiring
president, or Vice President He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations
- which is a definate negative and has taken as much as 8+ Million dollars from
Lawyers Groups . . . |
John Sydney McCain III
Born : August
29, 1936
Colleges :
US Naval Academy
On the Issues :
Abortion :
Pro-Life
Healthcare :
Private, Affordable
Iraq :
In Favor of continuing current policy
Organisations :
Unknown
My Take :
John McCain would have been someone I could have lived with if he had stuck to his
Maverick Ways . . . but, he has sold out to the Neo-Cons (sold his soul to the Devil
??) A Genuine war hero - I believe that he would shut down Gitmo, and may even work
to restore the Constitution - Hopefully - we won't have to find out one way or another
. . .
Update :
John Has TOTALLY SOLD OUT and would never get my vote - even for Dog Catcher
!
His seeking the endorsement of the very people whom he refered to as 'Agents of
Intolerance' and then having to disavow them shortly thereafter calls his judgement
into question . . . His age, his anger issues (related to PTSD ?) seriously calls
into question his fitness for the office of President of the United States.

on Immigration are extreme, wants to overturn ROE Vs. WADE - but,
is right about so many things . . . can't vote or support Ron Paul because of the things he is against . . .
