Backinthe day when I rose up my fist every night tofight the power and wanted a different kind of leader, clinton was in office. I voted for him b/c he was the least evil. He was fine and so on. Hil would be the same vain. but if I think of someone who embodies my FEMINIST THOUGHT of equality for menand women as well as poor and rich and black and latino and white etc, well, Obama does. He speaks my language. It's like finally he speaks my language. It's like being back inthe fold of theory and though and policy and he says stuff that I'm like- hell yeah. Hil- she's a woman and she's done really well. I would never say we are in a gendered neutral world. As much as I wouldn't say we are in a color blind world. But this isn't a race about a white woman and a white man. this is a complex race and it's a race about someone who differes slightly on policies that to my little mind are important ( ie immigration) and of course the big stuff like Wars and military force. Hilary needs to step down imho. well for me it’s this. Backinthe day when I rose up my fist every night tofight the power and wanted a different kind of leader, clinton was in office.

I'm still mostly undecided, yet when I really start to think about voting for Obama, my heart does this funny little flipflop and I feel really guilty... Perhaps I'll just end up flipping a coin in the end! Then? I can blame fate. I have found myself feeling the same way, thought maybe not to the same extent.
