Webmaster's NOTE:  FYI, the following are comments from users of LobbyDelegates.com, as reprinted from various online sources (mostly blogs, as cited) where authors posted their views about the LobbyDelegates.com website and the public's efforts to lobby Super Delegates on behalf of a preferred candidate.

 

It's not over yet, please write and donate -- by  (5-1-08)   implicit-learning/blogspot.com

A week before the North Carolina primary Hillary Clinton was not expected to win there, so it is more than a little strange that those results have been trumpeted up so much.

Some analysts nevertheless still see a path for Hillary to win the nomination. If she gets her two blowout wins in West Virginia and Kentucky, she will be back on track.

Please do not give up on Hillary yet. Write to the superdelegates and urge them to support Hillary for the nomination.  It is easy to do using this website:          www.lobbydelegates.com 

Urban Blog Forum -- by Tim Garrett (5-10-08)     www.UrbanBlog.com

If Hillary gets her two blowout wins in West Virginia and Kentucky, she will be back on track.  

A recent Rasmussen survey put her up 29 points in West Virginia, another poll had her up 40 points. A recent Survey USA poll of Kentucky had her up 34 points. Rasmussen recently had her up 25 points. —Jay Cost May 9, 2008, Real Clear Politics. Please donate to Hillary's campaign, and write to the superdelegates. It is easy to do using this website: www.lobbydelegates.com

Let the superdelegates know that you will not vote for the Democratic Party if Hillary is treated unfairly. Tell them that they should not stop the race before all the states have had a chance to vote, and that they should recognize Michigan and Florida.

Super Delegates for Obama!  (5-14-08)   super.del.egates.us

Hi all, Another site, Lobby Delegates has arrived, and is doing what we were trying to do much, much better (you can directly email, fax, or write the superdelegates, it's a very slick interface, etc.).  So we're closing this down, and pointing you to that. Go there. Lobby your super delegates for Obama!!  Go Obama! 

Lobby delegates -- by Ruby Sinreich (5-15-08)   techpresident.personaldemocracy.com

There's also www.lobbydelegates.com (and super.del.egates.us which is deferring to the former) where supporters can find undeclared super delegates and lobby them for their candidate.

Click here www.lobbyDelegates.com to learn about an amazing website which provides a process for composing email, letters, faxes to superdelegates.  AND then you can send SAME message to a number of superdelegates with ONE CLICK!   For example, you can compose a single email to ALL UNCOMMITTED SUPERDELEGATES IN CALIFORNIA...and then send it with ONE CLICK!

OBAMA SUPPORTERS using 1-CLICK to FLOOD Superdelegates. SO CAN WE!!!! -- by Lee (5-20-08) in TaylorMarsh.com

(IN EARLIER POST, FOCUSED ON CA...but it's intended to work for ALL states.)  You click on one state (KY for example). Then with one click you can choose ALL UNCOMMITTEDS superdelegates for that state. Compose message. Fill in name, etc. Then ONE CLICK sends your email to ALL UNCOMMITTED for that state. (You can then go state by state.)

By Clarkansas (5-25-08)            DemocraticUnderground.com

I spent about an hour contacting super delegates using the form here:  https://www.lobbydelegates.com  

It is very easy and free to send emails, all you need is an email address. So far I have gotten a lot of form responses, but a few personal responses as well. The responses indicate that the SDs are feeling the heat to support the winner of the pledged delegates.

By the way, the website froze on me a few times, but hitting the back button and trying again always worked.  Give it a shot, and keep this kicked if you can!

Yahoo! Answers:  How to Contact Super Delegates? - - by Sean T.         answers.yahoo.com

The best way for voters to see that the 'choice' for nomination they have indicated on the popular ballot DOES NOT go to waste - is to lobby behind superdelegates.   A good number of them have already done that on www.lobbydelegates.com.  It is just simple interface for you to voice your support to either of the candidates.

Comment by Bettyon (5-22-08)               www.stop-obama.org

Here is another link to a free email site, state by state. You fist choose whose delegates you want to contact, then which state, and then you can do all the delegates for that state at once or you can pick and choose. You can send a fax for a price, but email or regular post is free, you just have to be sure to check email. For sending, a letter is created for each individual candidate. It is pretty neat site, only draw back is you can only do one state at a time.   www.lobbydelegates.com

We need to pressure the Superdelegates -- by Megacious  (5-23-08)      www.obamadelegates.org
At this point we need to start pressuring the Superdelegates to get off the fence and bring this madness to an end. Hillary Clinton is already starting to talk about taking this all the way to the convention, which would be a disaster for the party. And no matter how much you yell at Clinton to get out of the race, she is determined, plus she seems to be an expert in "fuzzy math."  So, the only way to bring it to an end is to have the superdelegates bring it to an end for her. Have the superdelegates commit, once and for all, to Barack Obama, to get him to the "magic number" so she finally has no argument left to stay in the race. We can help this along by going to this website and lobbying the Uncommitted Superdelegates in each state. It lists all the uncommitted superdelegates in each state and will draft an email or letter for you that you can send:  www.lobbydelegates.com

Lobby your super delegates all at once -- By  ritz 5/26/2008                    www.huffingtonpost.com

Here's where you can easily lobby your super delegates all at once:  www.lobbydelegates.com   

And this is my plea to those who have already committed to Senator Clinton to switch (perfectly legal):

Dear Super Delegate Roberto,

I know that there are VERY STRONG interests that you are trying to consider -- for your districts and the people you represent. I understand that you are NOT trying to line your own pockets, or do anything that could be considered self-serving or unpatriotic. I know that when you decided to support the Clintons, it seemed to be the best choice, the surest choice. 

The reason the Obama people have been successful is because they are in the NOW. They are looking FORWARD. They believe not just in themselves and their own machine, but they believe in the people they hope to serve. Can you imagine? They believe in us! That's what people are responding to. 

Please believe in the people. Please believe in the future of this country. Please support the Democratic Party, and don't let any one person become more important than the whole. Please endorse Barack Obama before something tragic happens, like the demise of our party through intra-party bickering and growing hate.  BRING US BACK TOGETHER -- NOW. Don't wait until it's too late. 

I am a hard working American, and I approve this message. Thank you.

Comment by TexasDarlin (5-27-08)        noquarterusa.net

Someone just left this comment on my blog:  As a frustrated Hillary volunteer, I just spent a day doing a Super Delegate analysis of support, state by state. For any who wonder what is really happening, go see this analysis at NoQuarter, under post “Letter to SuperDelegates” in the comment section.

In sum, it will show you a consistent, diabolical pattern of SD votes for obama, against the Will of the People of every state, or vastly disproportionate to the primary outcome of the state. It also shows, painfully, that SD support for Hillary has been withheld, or totally circumvented, even in states where she had big wins!

So,the cat’s out of the bag - SUPERDELEGATES ARE STEALING THE ELECTION! (because, by circumventing the voting results of the people, they are depriving the Nomination to the Candidate most popular and most qualified to win the election.

Therefore, sober fact is STEAL THE NOMINATION = Steal the ELECTION and don’t even wait until November to do it.

CAUTION, please, to some as above, who said they will “still vote for down-ticket Dems”. BE AWARE, those down-ticket Dems are also Super Delegates - and they are the ones stealing the election from Hillary.

In many cases, these down ticket candidates have been generously bribed with the bottomless funds of Obama’s special interest financing (which includes millions from both major corporations - in bundled money form and millions more from Muslims (yes, that’s true - from Rezko & Auchi’s money chain in the Mid East, to Farrakan’s Nation of Islam, to the Hezbollah front Qwazini in Michigan, to many more.

Those Congressional candidates who are not being bought may be under duress of threats, just as La Rouche site reported was the case of J Edwards, who was told that if he didn’t come out RIGHT NOW for Obama, he’d be permanently exiled from the party.

If Obama is given this crooked coronation, I personally intend to campaign AGAINST all down-ticket Democrats, who gave Obama their SD endorsement. 

So please, true Dem’s like I’ve always been too, DON’T go give your votes to Super Delegate candidates for Congress (or local office) who are RESPONSIBLE directly for this fiasco and disaster.

By Samsgrandma (5-14-08)       www.taylormarsh.com

I just wrote to the super delegates in my State who are supporting Obama using this free link:  www.lobbydelegates.com. 

It really works great and you can do all the delegates in your or any state in one shot. Here is what I told them (and I really mean what I said in the last paragraph.):

I urge you to reconsider your support of Senator Obama for the nominee of our party. If Obama is the nominee and loses in the general, it will be a direct reflection of your judgement.

I will hold you personally responsible because you know Hillary is the more electable and you are doing a disservice to Democrats everywhere by voting against the candidate that has the best chance of winning.

I will do my best to make sure a primary opponent campaigns against you using the argument that you made a bad judgment call. People who make bad judgments like that shouldn’t be serving in Congress.

And finally, you will get Hillary to support and work for Obama because she has worked her whole adult life for the democratic party and she is beyond gracious to you. And that is all the more reason I will vote for McCain, because of your arrogance and the how it will feel to see the strongest candidate, the popular choice of all democrats, and A WOMAN humiliated and brought to heel behind your shallow candidate.

Letter to CA SD pledged Hillary -- from Hope Gethers's Blog (5-10-08)      my.barackobama.com

A copy of my letter today to all CA Hillary super delegates emailed from website of http://www.lobbydelegates.com a free citizens grassroots opportunity.

My Letter to the Superdelegates  -- from Keith Hood's Blog  (5-11-08)     my.barackobama.com

I recently took advantage of the lobby superdelegate tool offered at https://www.lobbydelegates.com/ . I sent my message to Clinton superdelegates urging them to switch and to uncommitted superdelegates urging them to declare for Obama. I have tried to be respectful and non-threatening. I emphasize that I will vote for Clinton if she's the nominee. I used to feel differently but I cannot in good conscience allow McCain to be in a position to appoint justices to the Supreme Court and I cannot in good conscience install McCain as Commander-in-Chief in charge of the war in Iraq. I considered casting a protest vote for Nader but it is probable that such mischief in 2000 gave us George W. Bush's first term. So, although a Clinton candidacy is highly unlikely at this point I would vote for her if she somehow finds a way to steal the nomination. But, as my message to the superdelegates says, although she'll have my vote she will not have my financial support or boots on the ground hard work.

Here's my message to Michigan's superdelegates:

I'm fifty-four years old and I've been a democrat since casting my first vote for George McGovern in 1972. From then until now I've been socially active. I've contributed both my time and money to nonprofit organizations. I've founded my own nonprofit organization and served on the boards of other nonprofit organizations. I founded and edited a literary journal and I currently serve as president of the board of directors of 826michigan, a nonprofit organization teaching writing skills to children aged 6 to 18. In spite of vigorous social activism my political involvement has never gone past casting my vote. On a federal level, I've consistently cast my vote for Democratic congresspersons, senators, and presidential candidates but again voting has been the limit of my involvement. My involvement has not included giving money or volunteering to work for the party. That is until now. In my political life, Barack Obama is the first candidate I've been willing to vote "for" instead of voting "against" the other person (Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush 41 & 43). You should know that in spite of my nonprofit activism and my rather active literary life that I'm a blue-collar worker without much disposable income and my first donation to Obama was for $10. I made a few more small $10 donations. Then I got even more involved and took advantage of the personal fundraiser application available at barackobama.com to set up my own personal fundraising page on his web site. Then I e-mailed all of my friends and relatives explaining my support for Obama and asked them to go to my personal fundraising page and make a small donation online. Lots of them chipped in with small donations and that effort raised about $800. Next, I ended up contacting the owners of two local brew pubs who I knew to be a political progressives and I asked them about holding a fundraiser for Obama. The owners offered one of their brewpubs for the fundraiser. I had less than seven days to organize the fundraiser. I invited two fiction writers and a poet to give readings. I also invited three sets of musicians. I invited people from the social networking site at barackobama.com in addition to other folks I know. In spite of the short notice we had almost 80 people at the fundraiser and we raised $1270 for the campaign. Since then I've made three DVDs containing the ubiquitous "Yes We Can" music video, some other music videos, and of few Barack and Michelle Obama's speeches, including Obama's "A More Perfect Union" speech on the issue of race relations. I've made that DVDs available at my cost to anyone donating $10 or more online at barackobama.com. That effort has raised $250 in one day and to this date has raised $1135. In total my efforts have raised $3270 for Senator Obama's campaign. I've have also spent many hours calling hundreds of voters as part of Senator Obama's phone banking operation and, since I was denied the chance to campaign for Senator Obama in my home state of Michigan, I've spent many hours canvassing for Senator Obama in neighboring states. The thing is my efforts are not unique. I know lots of other people doing the same thing. Through the social networking site on barackobama.com I've met likeminded individuals in all fifty states. This is the kind of involvement that Barack Obama has inspired from hundreds of thousands of people like me. I can't speak for the hundreds of thousands but I can speak for myself and say I will tirelessly raise money for Barack Obama's presidential campaign and for the Democratic Party if Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee for president of the United States. I will knock on doors to register voters and get out the vote if Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee for president of the United States. In other words, I will do whatever is within my abilities to see Barack Obama elected president of the United States. I will vote for Hillary Clinton if she is the Democratic nominee for president but it will be back to politics as usual for me. She'll get my vote but not my fundraising efforts or any other effort from me. Once again I'll be voting "against" someone rather than being "for" someone. I'll be against John McCain and a third "Bush" term than "for" Hillary Clinton.

Bringing people like me on board will provide the grass roots energy necessary to secure a victory for the Democrats in the fall. Your support of Barack Obama can help that happen.

Lobby for Supers -- by Yvonne Bonney  (5-17-08)          blog.hillaryclinton.com

Please write to Super Delegates and ask for their endorsement for Hillary.  Here's a link I found in an earlier blog and please pass it on to other Hillary sites only, you can bet Obama supporters are doing this as well. We need to push them in Hillary's direction.  Go for committed and non-committed:  https://www.lobbydelegates.com/default.aspx . 

They need to know that Hillary is the one that can beat McCain, she's won more votes as well as the states needed in the general. Do not over turn the will of the people!

Lobby Delegates to support our candidate -- by MargeNY  (5-16-08)        blog.hillaryclinton.com

Hi,  Here is a site that allows you to lobby all the superdelegates for each state, whether undecideds only or competitors to switch: 
www.lobbydelegates.com.  Use this free service to let the delegates know how you feel and whether you will continue to support the party if they fail to seat all of our votes and delegates!

Great site  -- by wackiekat  (5-16-08)       blog.hillaryclinton.com

Remember to ask those who have already made an endorsement to consider changing to endorse Senator Clinton.  I am working my way throgh the states!!  This site is great and I am on the M's.  You have to send three emails for each state…  It is worth it though… OK, I am back to work!!

Done ALL 50 states...NOT 48 -- by wackiekat  (5-16-08)   blog.hillaryclinton.com

E-mail delegates…Here is the link -- by Kathy Grega (5-18-08)    blog.hillaryclinton.com

Here is the link to e-mail the uncommitted delegates:   https://www.lobbydelegates.com/default.aspx

Click on Clinton, choose every state one at a time. I the column marked "uncommitted"---check "all" then compose your text.and send via e-mail… it is free.  I composed my e-mail first, then copied and pasted into text area.  This works, because after I sent my e-mail, I did get a confirmation of it being received by [House Speaker] Pelosi.   Make sure you check "all" uncommitted, you can prior to sending, view your message. 

Be strong in your content, tell them not only to count MI & Fl, but tell them to that Hillary is the best quailified for the nomination, and that WE the voters will hold then accountable if they annoint Obama---if he becomes the nominee, we will not support him. Our lack of vote for him will be a vote of no confidence.

Use this free service to let the delegates know how you feel …I wrote to all the delegates that supported Hillary to thank them and then wrote to all of Obama's supporters and asked them to change their endorsement to Hillary based on her qualifications, etc. Then I wrote to all the undeclared delegates.  I got several responses, so it is worth it and they really do want to know what Hillary’s base is like and what we are all about.”  supper d's

Lobby SuperDelegates to Support Hillary Clinton
Lobby those now pledged to Obama to switch to Clinton
Lobby those now pledged to Clinton to keep pledge to Clinton
Lobby those now Uncommitted to pledge their vote to Clinton

Dear Clinton Supporter: 

You recently visited the www.LobbyDelegates.com website to urge the Party Super Delegates to support Hillary Clinton as the Democratic Presidential nominee. * 

You may be interested in knowing that since its April 1st launch, over 10,000 others have visited LobbyDelegates.com to similarly share their views with Super Delegates.

In the past week alone, visits to LobbyDelegates.com from websites that support Hillary Clinton have surged by over 5,000% and continue to climb! Indeed, pro-Clinton websites now represent 13.5% of the visitors from all referral sources, while pro-Obama websites contribute less than 5% (and shrinking). In a similar trend, visitors from pro-Obama websites have declined from being twice as many as from pro-Clinton sources throughout April and early May, to now being less than half of what pro-Clinton websites send.

Read what a fellow Clinton supporter says about LobbyDelegates.com (from blog.hillaryclinton.com):

“Use this free service to let the delegates know how you feel …I wrote to all the delegates that supported Hillary to thank them and then wrote to all of Obama's supporters and asked them to change their endorsement to Hillary based on her qualifications, etc. Then I wrote to all the undeclared delegates. I got several responses, so it is worth it and they really do want to know what Hillary’s base is like and what we are all about.” 

Remember there is still time to contact Super Delegates again yourself, and to encourage others to do the same. Simply click on the “Invite a Friend” button, which makes it simple to alert others about www.LobbyDelegates.com. You can also alert other Clinton supporters about lobbying Super Delegates by posting comments online on the numerous websites covering the primary race.

Super Delegates are now indispensable for either candidate to win the nomination, so if you want Hillary Clinton to prevail, tell these top party officials why they should support her…before time runs out! 

Sincerely,
The StateDemocracy Foundation

Help with Postal Addresses for Super Delegates?  By Sarah75 (3-21-08)

…I know from other lobbying campaigns that organizers always say that real paper letters and phone calls carry extra weight with elected officials, because they show the writers were serious enough to put in extra effort to contact them. This could be a way that Hillary supporters could distinguish themselves from youthful Obamatons, who may be totally lost away from their computers... So in addition to keeping up the emails, I would really like to send out more paper letters. 

Does anyone know of a list of postal address or phone numbers to contact delegates?? If not, could we start one on this forum somehow?  Please let me know if anyone can help!  Go Hillary!

Contact Superdelegates Now!!!  -- by Latina4Hillary  (5-16-08)

By EsmeraldaB (5-18-08)

Is Lobby Delegates.com simply a template site? Or do you really get something more for the $5 request?  Like real mailing addresses and real email addresses? How do I know the address listed for the other SDs are legit? One looked like a home address.

SDs Names and Addresses -- by Latina4Hillary  (5-19-08)

The addresses posted are correct. It is possible that many SDs who are not elected officials use their home address. Some are retirees, stay-at-home parents, or their employers might prohibit using the organization's mailing and e-mail address for political activities.   The e-mail link is the same as post. If you have problems, you can e-mail the administrator. He responds quickly.

SUPERDELEGATE Email Tool:  Mass-contact superdelegates nationwide   By Vici57 (5-19-08)

I have been using this tool for a couple of weeks now, and I am getting responses back. Most say thank you for your email or thoughts. It does work. I have send to every states uncommitted super-delegates telling them to support Hillary, then give them reasons not to go over to Obama. I have also sent to a few of Hillary's committed delegates thanking them for their vote and support. Everything helps!

By Timeforrealchange  (5-19-08)

I am busy sending emails! You can look up zip codes and google and send to all states. 

Everyone should get busy sending messages (you can choose e-mail & post) and send this link to everyone you know who is a Hillary supporter.

I am contacting committed, uncommitted and Obama delegates asking them to switch and giving them reasons like his associations, fear we don't really know him, etc. so they get the message that we will not come home in November!

By Teachgrd3 (5-19-08)

Thanks, this site looks really helpful. I just checked it out and there is also an online poll on the site where Hillary could use a little help.    I liked the option to write a personal message, so I included all the issues with Barack Obama's associates. I also stressed that Hillary is capable and ready to lead the country and has the plans to do so.  I didn't have any trouble using the site, and you don't have to give the $5. It's voluntary. I sent all of my messages by email.   I received a note of thanks today from Congressman Joe Sestak, one of the superdelegates from PA. I emailed them all yesterday:

Dear Super Delegate Sestak, 

Thank you for your support of Hillary Clinton and I ask you to continue your support of Hillary to represent our party for president. She overwhelmingly won our state of PA in the primary election. She has plans that can get our country back on track. She is well qualified, ready, and able to serve as our next president. 

Barack Obama is a seriously flawed and unelectable candidate. He has worrisome connections to characters like William Ayers, Carl Davidson, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Rashad Khalidi, Tony Rezko, and more. Many of his followers are unaware of, or oblivious to, the seriousness of associations such as these, but if he receives our nomination, the Republican Party will be more than happy to educate everyone.

We need to win in November! Please support, and nominate, Hillary Clinton for our nominee.

Huh, I emailed one of my state senators in Michigan, and it said it didn’t detect a Michigan address and that she could only read emails from her constituents right now. Hmph.

By VotingHillary (5-19-08)

Here is my email to Senator Casey of PA...please my fellow PA Hillary supporters.  Take the time to do this. It is so easy: 

I urge you to switch your Convention voting pledge from Barack Obama to Clinton. Simply stated sir, it is the will of the majority of the Pennsylvania voters in April and to go against that vote is to say that we don't matter. Please do not error on the side of political expediency. You were voted into office to represent the will of the people of Pennsylvania. We expressed our will in April. Represent that will at the Denver convention.

Vici5557 (5-19-08)

I have found this blog to be very interesting and have wanted to write and only now have time.  Hillary I do appreciate you for your continued fight to be the leader of our country.  I have talked to numerous people that say they will not vote for BO.  I myself and others do fear for the security of the United States if he does get elected.  Due to his statements of having family on 3 continents.  I have written to cnn and this has never been addressed.  

I thank you for the superdelegates information.  Will contact them now

Regarding the Assassination of Bobby Kennedy -- by Lorna in Maryland (5-26-08)

As an American, I am feeling troubled, like many Americans as to why the DNC, Congress and the Super Delegates and have not come out forcefully and ending this race? The words Hillary orated during the Argus Leader editorial board's newspaper were disturbing on so many levels.

First, she says in all her speeches that she will work hard to bring the two camps together, and when asked by an "Offscreen Voice" if she is for the party unity argument, she clearly says, "I don't." When asked by either the same Voice or a different Voice "...for it?" Hillary goes to utter the words highlighting an assassination. What do you think she is saying when she says "You know, I just – I don't understand it." right after polarizing the assassination of Bobby Kennedy? Let me point out to you the absolute language that highlights the fact that Hillary Clinton may not be working with a stable mind and soul. Below are inserts from that interview.

The news media are saying the Obama camp reported this information first. Does that matter? No. When an individual is on camera polarizing the kind of behavior that could cause irreversible consequences to happen to an individual is heartless, thoughtless and distasteful.

In my dishearten opinion, the actions taken by the DNC, Congress and Super Delegates have once again let the American people down. We sat and listened to just about every news channel polarizing Clinton's interpretation of White people, as "hard-working White Americans will not vote for Barack Obama." (This could be interpreted as calling out to racial Whites one week and asking them the next week to carry out assassination. Regardless of what Senator Clinton intended to say, all carry a negative over-tone. Blacks more than any people want unity among all. Help us bring an end to all actions that divides us as a National.

Thanks for listening, and God Bless All of Us.

I am a 47 year old registered, voting Republican. I urge you to end your Uncommitted stance, and make a public pledge to vote for Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention.

Barack Obama speaks from a sincere perspective. He does not simply spew rhetoric expected from one ‘representing’ one of the two parties. Instead, I hear a man focused on finding solutions for the challenges Americans face…ALL Americans.

I am impressed that he consistently reveals tolerance during debates/ exchanges with "opponents"- expressing respect for their opinion, followed every time with his solution based response.  I urge you to end your uncommitted stance, above stipulating only a few of the reasons. 

My input is that of a voting constituent fed up with the counterproductive political combat zone between Democrats and Republicans. I want a president who cares about the people, not the Democrats, or the Republicans…the People. 

I am not alone. Many Republicans I know feel the same way and are going to vote for Barack Obama. Never have I encountered so many Americans of all parties, so eagerly expressing respect and support for a candidate.  Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Libratarians want Barrack Obama because he will navigate our country towards Unity. 

It is the direction our political machine must recognize in order to re-secure and sustain a strong and unified national sensibility. And it IS the will of the people.

I would like my comment to be sent to all the undecided superdelegates in Montana. I urge you to vote for Hillary Clinton. You all are aware of the bashing she has received from the media, the talk shows, and the status quo of Washington since the beginning of this race. A good example of this is this last reference by Hillary on the primaries lasting until the end of June and remembering it with the assasination of Robert Kennedy. This is no comparsion to Barack Obama and his association with the Rev. Wright, his association with Ayers, his wife saying she is not proud of her country, his wearing now of the flag pin to get the votes, and the fact that he and his wife held prayer services in the basement just before he made his announcement to run for the President of the United States. Quote of the year:From the Audacity of Hope: "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction"-Sentor Barack Hussein Obama. Hillary is more intelligent, more educated,more qualified,and more experienced. Hillary will win more electorial votes in a general election then Obama. Obama will not unite this country. He and his lies will divide this country.

Our country needs a leader that has the experience ,the key states the large states.the swing states,who do these people think caused it to be this way? Its the voters that have confidence that Hillary has the ability to lead our country, just because a new person has come from no experience that can be proven or even talked about ,just speeches and slick references to Hillary in a very biased way.His campaign made race an issue. Tell the people who helped Obama become a candidate, just to be informed instead of listening to someone who speaks a new,kind of politician but then uses old time kind of attacks . Go back and read about his background and not just the propaganda! People want Hillary because she can beat Mccain ,she has worked with people on both sides of the senate , she has been for civil rights and all rights all her life along with Bill. do people not get in spite of republicans they have done the work of the people and still are . Despite the rush of the superdelegates to Obama to be there so they are "proving" what they "believe"??! I believe just like Edwards and Richardson they are pandering to Obama and its not working in the publics eye. We are seeing inequality to a very strong woman candidate and they are punishing her for being the best and not giving in to their pressure to get out.Don't they get it we want to win in the fall based on experince and ability and knowledge of foreign leaders and nuances of what they really mean and the proceedures to progress in our democracy and leadership in the world that biush has destroyed. We don't need inexperience we already had it!

 

CLINTON TALKS ABOUT ASSASSINATION? DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT NOW~!!!!!!WE WANT HER OUT NOW (5-24-08)


I am saddened and ashamed to be called a woman..because of Hillary... what is the likelihood that i could ever be supported for presidency with a woman like Hillary haven run for this post with so much disgraceful words spoken of her opponent...0.%
Her supporters and herself  have spoken racism, they have asserted sexism now they assert assassination?
Using the possibility of political assassination as a means to justify one's own continuously destructive and divisive--and utterly pointless--political campaign is wrong. Just wrong. And even if she were winning, it would still be wrong. There is no justification for it. And she has said it before! She is obviously thinking this, and she has been for a long time. She may even know of a plot, for crying out loud. Really, this has very little to do with the Kennedy family--although certainly this must be hurtful to them--and everything to do with the USA and its people. All of us, Republican, Democrat, Independent, Libertarian, Communist, Socialist--all of us! HILLARY IS A SHAME ON WOMANHOOD!!! 

?        I will send you a donation.  Thanks for providing this service.  I've been a strong supporter of Senator Clinton, but the race is over and delegates need to get behind Senator Obama.  Otherwise, Republicans will win. (5-23-08)

?        To whom it may concern:  I for one can't vote for Barack Hussein Obama if you make him the Nominee.  The reasons are 20 years of Rev. Wrong only to put him aside now because he's running for President I believe his view's and his wife's are the same as the Reverend Wrong or he would have left that church long ago not just now and he still brought his children there what did they learn?  Obama speech's sound just like they are coming from Rev. Wrong only with Obama voice! Farrakkan,Rezko,Sinclair,Ayers,Statements that his wife makes statements that he makes everyone defending them covering up everything and saying they really meant it this way not that way! Things that are written in his books! finally wearing an American flag lapel pin now only because people complained about it! Plus a lot more!  'Obama what's in your closet?'i'll bet lot's We the people voted our choice Hillary Clinton every time she wins they take it away saying it's nothing and States she win's big in someone comes out for him just to down play her why? She won the state not him! Look at how John Edward's was a sneaky behind the back southern weasel came out without the common curtesy to inform her of his intentions at least others did! No wonder he can't win shows what kind of person he really is!  Obama has been the Media and the DNC choice so far! The Pied Piper from HELL "Follow Me To The Promised land of Change" What Change? He doesn't even know what change himself, it reminds me of the Seventh Sign Scary Huh? We the people don't trust him or believe in him.   I believe if people in the beginning knew about Obama and his Rev. and other choices of bad and poor judgment of people and friends of his they would have voted differently and he would not have a lead over Hillary Clinton!  If you make Obama the Nominee I'll have to vote for John McCain there is no way I'd vote for Obama I'm sure many others feel this way, and he will not win the General Election even if Hillary asks us to! It'll be a sad day!  I'll have to reregister as an Independent hopefully Hillary will also!

?        I can't believe that Obama is already picking his VP he hasn't even won the Nomination Yet Hopefully he won't and people will smarten up and choose the Real and Best Candidate that the Democratic Party has and that is Hillary Clinton She is the only one that can win the General Election because if you continue to name Obama The Reverend Wrong choice you'll just give the election to John McCain because I could never vote for Obama and I know that Many others won't either because of his poor choices and judgments of friends and people he's associated with "Obama what's in your Closet " ?  I'll Bet LOT"S!  I'll be forced to become an Independent and have to vote for John McCain I'll never and many others won't vote for Obama no matter what!  Please do the RIGHT thing choose the RIGHT candidate Hillary Clinton Not the Reverend Wrong candidate NoBama!   Thank You Have a good-day!   P. S Seat all the MI & FL Delegates fair voting in FL and it's his own fault in MI  that he took his name off the ballot others didn't , another reason that shows why Hillary Clinton is the RIGHT CHOICE (5-22-08)  

?        I don't understand why the super delagates are not forth coming on their decision to support someone.  If they take it away from Senator Obama, it is over, most people including me would think Clinton made a Bush move.  Clinton is not going to be president now or ever.  I don't even know who you are but I wanted to tell someone what the little people in Texas think. (5-21-08) 

?        THANK YOU FOR  LOBBY DELEGATES, I PLAN TO USE IT DAILY AND MY FRIEND DO AS WELL (5-21-08)

?        If the superdelegates vote for Clinton when the voters have cast ballots for Obama, then the voting process has once again been tampered with. And why should people bother to go and vote?  The superdelegate for our area has said he will vote for whichever candidate his geographical area chose. That seems fair enough.  (5-8-08) 

?        The fire gets too hot and the super delegates start turnig sides.  Super delegates are a joke.  They do not represent the people of the USA or the democratic process.  Hillary Clinton deserves more support.  We know she loves this country and will work hard for the people.  Barrack Obama only does what the rich celebrities want.  He's an uppity up person.  We need a person with back bone. (5-13-08)
