John Edwards did come out looking well, but the thing is that after Bush, we needed a stronger, vicious contender and Senator Clinton would have been it, however Obama was chosen. I voted for him but I still would have preferred Clinton.
Edwards was the shining star. I don't give a fuck if what he did in his personal life. Obama needs a guy like that (a rich guy who actually cares about the poor) in his administration.
John Edwards was practically the reason Kerry lost, outside of Kerry himself. If Kerry chose Vilsack or Gephardt then he would have most likely won Iowa and Missouri, thus winning the election. Trust me, Edwards would bring nothing to the ticket.
I do have to agree with edwards on his comments at 4:03 enough with the endless back talking and debating of past events among each other, fight for our future now and tell us how are they going to lead us, it's the how that's most important and that's why i am a little hesitant about obama, a man of words but what about actions?
Does anyone else find it odd that this series of vids has 20,000 or LESS views each, meanwhile the "Chris Crocker Phenomena" has had millions of views for each of his(her?) vids?
the one thing i enjoy about these different candidates is that they speak their opinion and have things to say rather than be passive spectators. Obama '08!
Uh kuh, kuh, excuse me Hillary? "...we both have very passionate, committed spouses who stand up for us..." Did your "committed spouse" stand up for you when he was allowing Monica to lubricate his cigar, etc. etc. or all his other "conquests" to perform who-knows-what other acts on him? Rrrright...very committed... She's nothing but an opportunist...
Of course she's not, that's not what my comment was about. It's about her ridiculous statement about her spouse being committed to her - he's never been committed to her as a spouse.
The gloves have really come off, ha! So much for political ettiquette! You got to love Edwards "I would like to remind you that there are 3 candidates in this debate."
Edwards has a lot of game talk when it come to African American problems, but I don't think I could trust someone who gets campaign money from a white supremacist. I am a democrat and I excited for the new change though
Finally, the washington post recently came out with a good follow up article to points made in this part of the debate. Both Hillary's involvement in Wal-Mart and Barack's reciept of a campaign contribution from a slum lord. Let's see who has control over this? Hillary willingly made money off this monster company and when Barack found out about the contribution he donated much of the money to charities. I will post the link to the article shortly if I can find it again.
President's don't lead with one liners, but as far as one liners "I'm not sure who I'm running against" is also a pretty good line.
Fighting aside... The New Yorker January 28th has a good article about the differences in the approach of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to the Presidency. Simple minded, closed minded people are the first to call others "fucking idiots" please refrain.
id like to apologize on behalf of our 4fathers who brought african americans to this country!i wish it never happend!africans could be in africa living the african dream as we speak!this place is unfair to you!save your money and go back. good luck!
You will notice that Obama attempts to stay very clear on specifics, while Hillary throws around deliberately twisted accusations. Yes, they are both critical of one another. However, she is pure politics, while he is attempting to clarify his record and make legitimate distinctions between them. I don't think Edwards smells like a rose, either. He is chuckling at his lack of time in the cross-hairs.
talking about who you would Have sex with is so not part of this whole thing. (Marijuana)Legalise it! Decriminalise it! they say oh we can't tax it. I say bull crap. you can.
dont be petty. you try standing in his shoes. Obama should be admired for coming as far as he has. i think all three of them have something to say, but who is the most logical?
I have thought for years that the question of race and/or nationality should be removed from every application for employment, housing, schooling... this is America! I was told schools get more money if students are black or Hispanic, as if black and Hispanic children are harder to educate! Whatever.
Hilary is a veteran mudslinger. I don't like it, but just wait til the repubs come out. The right wing org "Freedom Watch" already has about $250,000,000 to spend on neg ads. I hope Obama can respond but stay above the mudslinging. It doesn't reflect well on anyone, but you gotta defend yourself. Edwards is right, policies are what count, not personalities
They say Obama is scrapping with Hillary, but he has the right to defend the outrageous lies the Clintons are trying to harm him with. Sorry, I'm sick of her voice and face and lies and pettiness! !! The things she's trying to harm him with are so stretched my 800 lb uncle could fit in!
Funny how they are talking about NAFTA but they have yet to say that they will get out of NAFTA and the WTO. Hillary always says whats popular, the green jobs she was talking about, Kucinich actually has a plan for it. He is not building any more nuclear power plants, while Hillary and Obama are keeping that option open. Edwards is now agaist nuclear power but voted for Yaka mountain, his voting and his mouth do not match.
Wow I never paid attention to edwards before this during this campaign but he just absolutely dominated those 2.. i'm gonna have to check him out more.. he might just get my vote..
Edwards is right - take the cap off of social security. The rich ARE getting richer. People need to vote for their own best interests. Ronald Reagan started destroying the middle class - remember what he did to the Air Traffic Controllers? Apparently many of his supporters are suffering from the same selective amnesia that he so often displayed!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
GOD BLESS RONALD REGAN, THE GREATEST PRESIDENT THAT EVER LIVED!! and all this green economy talk makes me sick. its not possible to cure our oil addiction with "green" energy. enviroment, enviroment, bullshit. my lord, if we let these people run our country, we are in trouble. delusional people. thanks Al Gore for screwing up our country with this global warming bullshit!
wow , i bet your waiting for the rapture aren't you. Only a theist would truly not care about our environment(because of their lack of knowledge in all sciences)
Hey reatrd. At least spell the bastard's name right if you're gonna cum all over his memory.
And reatrd, "green economy" is the only way we'll get off oil. Or would you rather we just march right on over and just take their oil? Cuz, well, things worked out so well when we tried it with Iraq, right, retard?
Agreed - She IS tough. She also has been twisting Obama's words for months and engaging in Extremely dirty campaigning, and if I were Barack, by now, I'd have punched the woman.
Good for Edwards he gets to make fun of them for it. He needs some more screentime.
Man what I would give to hear what Kucinich would've said to that exchange.
Hillary is a liar, and she's too catty, she is not going to unite this country...she better pray if she wins the Democratic election that Obama will even want to join her campaign. We all know she wants him as VP.
