I was there. I can tell you that I didnt boo Hillary, we were all booing obama. Why would people who waited in line since 1:30pm to get in the door at 6:30 boo her??? the person that wrote thisand thought we were booing Hillary needs to do some closer investigating.

El Paso loves Hillary.

Guys, the corporate media is for Obama, do not worry about their tripe, and hype.

It is the Economy, Stupid!

I personally would prefer a freeze on home foreclosures to an inspiring poetic speech about nothing in particular from Sen Obama.

The corporate media who built him up plan to bury Barry Obama with the story of his extensive borderline legal dealings with international organized crime figure, Tony Rezko (try getting that name past the censors at pro-Obama HuffPo.)

If you want the fascistic Bloomberg/McCain ticket then the clueless Obama is your kind of Democratic nominee.

I read your article and your link to that gal’s Washington Post article, where she claims Hillary Clinton was booed in El Paso.

Hillary most certainly was not booed. It was Obama’s policy differences Hillary mentioned that were booed.

How do I know this? I was there, volunteering for Hillary Clinton at that rally, and I booed. As did some others the moment Obama’s name was mentioned. All the rest of her stump speech, we cheered, hollered and applauded until we were hoarse. Not just we who answered the call to volunteer, but everyone else in the arena! It was deafening!

El Pasoans are not particularly politically active. We had no idea how many, if much of any, people would show up at the rally. When lines upon lines of people arrived, waiting for hours in blocks that stretched around the building and down the street, that told me just how important Hillary Clinton’s campaign for President is to everyday Texans.

El Pasoans, if your children are insured through the CHIP program, you can thank Hillary Clinton. If your children are left out of CHIP due to the Republican Presidents’ veto of its extension, you can rest assured that Hillary Clinton will make that right as soon as she’s President. If your children do not have health insurance of any kind, and half of El Paso’s (pop 750,000 ) children don’t, Hillary Clinton will make sure you will. If you are an El Paso adult without health insurance, and 40% of El Paso adults don’t have any insurance, Hillary Clinton will ensure you get health care.

El Paso teachers and students, are you sick and tired of teaching-to-the-test and learning the right answers to the test? Do you want to educate once again? Do you want the joy of learning once again? Hillary Clinton will make education what it should be once she is President by getting rid of the failed and misnamed No Child Left Behind.

El Paso military families stationed with our local Ft Bliss – do you want your sons, daughters and spouses home from Iraq? Do you want to know they will not face yet another tour of duty there, nor be called up to invade Iran next? Hillary Clinton will bring your sons, daughters and spouses home!

El Paso, and Texas, has every reason to support Hillary Clinton. Everyone must go vote on March 4!

Political Independant voting for Hillary Clinton March 4

i urge all texan to vote for that candidate whom they believe can take our nation forward on day one because we face a huge challenge going forward and there will be no training sessions for the new president elect.
sen obama motivational and inspiring speeches are good but when you are dealing with world leaders who wants answers and solution to major issues(remember our nation is the leader in the world) inspiring speehes won’t do.
please vote on issues not by color.
and i urge all latinos to please remember who was there for them in past and stay committed to Hillary . she has demonstrated her strenght in face of adversity. we need a president who is strong, committed and has the experience to tackle the issues we face today
i am troubled by the black movement to elect a black president. my question to them is
does it matter that our nations crisis demands that we elect the most qualified to lead not simply by color?. this country has given them a lot and now they must give back by making a smart choice and not a racial choice. i am an african american and i will vote on issues not by color.

Obama is always bragging that he voted against the war in Iraq. Let’s examine that for a second. At the time of the vote, the Senators had intelligence reports that stated there were weapons of mass destruction there. There is no way Obama could have known that there were not weapons there, so in my opinion he voted AGAINST protecting America. What if a new enemy surfaces and the weapons turn out to be there for real–and Obama leaves the USA as sitting ducks?!!? Hillary has been to Iraq multiple times and can get us out of Iraq SAFELY. Obama has NEVER been to Iraq. Now Obama is stealing Hillary’s economic plan and claiming it his own. I want a leader that will come up with solutions and protect America. I am voting Hillary.

Hillary Clinton is the most qualified candidate for President. She knows the issues that are important to American families. She speaks clearly and in detail about her plans.

I voted for her in my state primary, which she won. I donated money to her campaign also and I will continue to support her all the way to the White House.

I encourage you to support Hillary. We need a president who will MAKE changes not simply TALK about them.
