Today, Bill Richardson joined the parade of mostly white, male politicians endorsing Barack Obama. I find it interesting that the guy who benefited so much from the Clinton administration, decided to endorse Barack Obama, instead of Hillary Clinton. Why? Because the boys club of Washington does NOT want a woman in the White House. They think it’s good enough that we have Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House, 3rd in line from the Presidency.

What is wrong with middle America. I can’t believe that the republicans in Iowa chose Huckabee as the nominee. Aside from Huckabee’s conservative social agenda and evangelical background, do these people really want someone by the name of “Huckabee” potentially the president of United States? And I really hope it doesn’t come to this. But unfortunately if it ends up being a Huckabee vs. Obama race we might end up with another republican in the White House. (more…)
