152. I've made my opinion of HRC clear many times. I don't like her.

Sun Nov 9, 2014, 01:37 PM

Nov 2014

I don't want her as President. I will still vote for her if she is the nominee. As for the rest, without coordination or unity of purpose, all those people and organizations you mention will fail. They have already. OWS failed. Snowden failed. I don't think Code Pink has failed or has been disparaged, have they? Not by me.

My father is gay so I'm especially glad that marriage equality is becoming mainstream. I make a decent salary and I want my taxes to be higher to help those who need it more than I do. I voted against teacher/employment standards here in St. Louis and for a tax increase to repair the schools.

I am not 'threatened' by OWS or any other organization fighting for the same things I believe in.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]I'm always right. When I'm wrong I admit it.
So then I'm right about being wrong.[/center][/font][hr]
