Hillary is the true Democratic nominee

Don’t be duped again, America [Perhaps principle, not politics, keeps Clinton in race, Randon Gardley, May 29]. It’s about elect-ability.

Large numbers of Bush/McCain Republicans have been voting for Barack Obama in the Democratic primaries and caucuses from early on. And they’ve been doing so under the direction of George W. Bush’s and Karl Rove’s voter fraud and manipulation machine. They feel Barack Obama would be a weaker opponent against John McCain, and they want to stop Hillary Clinton from fixing American and the global mess they have created. Shocking isn’t it? Just gotta love those good old, draft-dodging, silver spoon Texas boys-Not!

You see, the medical and insurance industry mostly support the Republicans with the money they ripped off from you. And they don’t want you to have quality, affordable universal health care. They want to be able to continue to rip you off.

With Hillary Clinton, you are almost 100 percent certain to get quality, affordable, universal health care for everyone very soon. And you are also certain to see major improvements in the economy for everyone. The American people face even worse catastrophes ahead than the ones you are living through now. It will take all of the skill and experience of Hillary Clinton to pull the American people out of this mess we are in.

Fortunately, fixing up and cleaning up others’ incompetence and immoral degeneracy is what the Clinton’s do very well. Hillary Clinton has actually won by much larger margins than the vote totals showed, and has lost by much smaller vote margins than reported. Her delegate count is actually much higher than it shows, higher than Obama’s, the presumptive nominee. She also leads in the states that you must win to become president in the November national election.

If Obama is the Democratic nominee, he will be slaughtered. That is crystal clear now. Hillary Clinton is already the true Democratic nominee.

R. Kelly is no victim

This is a situation where a grown man is sexually abusing a minor, and because it’s R. Kelly [It takes a village to be outraged about the R. Kelly case, Arlene Jones, May 29]. People support him as the victim. If this was a normal Joe Schmo, people would be outraged. There are victims in this case and none of there names is R. Kelly. Where there’s smoke, there is usually fire. Put out the fire.

Step up and raise your kids

I have been saying this for years [To curb youth violence, parents must be held accountable, Randon Gardley, May 15]. We need to hold our parents accountable. People need to raise their children and stop letting the streets and the system raise them. The answer to this problem starts with the entire family being mended. Men have to step up to be fathers and women have to step up to be mothers.

Hillary got a raw deal

I feel bad for Hilary [Perhaps principle, not politics, keeps Clinton in race, Randon Gardley, May 29]. But the same thing happens every day to women across the world. Just when you think it’s your turn for a promotion, you get sucker-punched!

Policing parents

This is a serious problem [To curb youth violence, parents must be held accountable, Randon Gardley, May 15]. It just seems so overwhelming. Where do we begin? How do we start the process to police our parents?

Siedah changed my life

My niece, Siedah Sivels, was a testimony for me [Fighting long enough while leaving a lasting impression, April 10]. I have changed my life and now I am living for the Lord. God allows things to happen for us to know he’s in charge. I truly love my niece but never was around much, but she inspired me with her life testimony.
