Dear Bobby, It's not the person who is hated but her policies & SUPPORT OF CORPORATISM!

Dear Bobby,

As much as I respect your work for the environment and efforts in exposing the election fraud in Ohio that put Bush instead of John Kerry into the White House in 2004, I take offense in your labeling of those who oppose Hillary as "haters". I am a lifelong Democrat who volunteered full time for Kerry Edwards (despite supporting Howard Dean in the primary) inFranklin County Ohio. I started and manage a 300+ volunteer team in my area that worked visibility events, rallies, fundraisers and of course the all important GOTV efforts, not only in my area, but also on the near east side of Columbus Ohio (you will remember that these are the low income Af Am precincts that waited 2-5 hours in the cold, pouring rain to vote Democratic). I personally witnessed the disenfranchisement that you wrote about in your infamous Rollingstone article. After Nov 2nd, I didn't sit home and sulk, I was out on November 3rd organizing an investigation. I joined up with Citizens Alliance for Secure Elections (CASE Ohio) and Freepress. We organized the Fight for Democracy Rally and protests that included Greg Palast, Rev Jesse Jackson and others to bring attention to what occurred. We held hearing including one that brought Congressman John Conyers and members of the House Judiciary Committee Democratic delegation to Columbus to draw attention to our plight since it became obvious very soon that the corporate media was not going to pay attention. After it became apparent that our Democratic leadership, outside of the CBC and a few others were going to turn their backs on those votes, I got involved locally and nationally with election integrity groups and continued investigating. I have stood in cold BOE warehouses copying op-scan ballots. I have hand counted dozens of precincts of ballots in search of the truth. In essence, I got involved because I truly care about what is occurring in this country.

To dismiss my strong opposition of Hillary Clinton as that I hate her, is insulting. It has been suggested that folks like me take issue with powerful women or that we border on pathology in our dislike for Hillary. I am tired of being labeled in such a way when just the opposite is true. I have taken the time and effort to research the candidate and I find her policies as well as her choice in those she has selected as strategists to be against what I believe is best for our country. I believe that her strong alliance with the DLC guides many of her actions. I do not believe this group is working in the best interest of the people of this country. The policies that the DLC espouses are ruining the middle class and helping to prolong the war. It is her support of free-trade, IWR and her recent vote of Kyl-Lieberman that I am against. It is the likes of her strategists: Mark Penn, Howard Wolfson, James Carville and Will Marshall who concern me.

Sometimes, people who agree on many issues (environment, election fraud) simply disagree on others, but to label this disagreement in derogatory terms is an insult. I would like to offer the reasons of opposition to you with links in sections. I hope you take the time to research each, the way you took time to delve into the evidence presented to you on the '04 Ohio vote.

With all due respect,
