I’m not about to bigg up BARACK OBAAMA just because of his primary win in Iowa. Albeit, it was historical that a mulatto won a primary there for the first time. Let’s see if that fool DJIMON HONSOU could win a primary in Iowa? I don’t think so.
The reason that I don’t support OBAAMA has nothing to do with some ‘crabs in the barrel’ post-slavery mentality. I would have voted for X and MLK Jr. if I had the choice. My biggest objection to OBAAMA is that he opposes universal healthcare for all Americans. The pharmaceutical industrial complex and the insurance rackets definitely have their wallets over BARACK.
Most of us don’t worry about our health too tough since we are young and strong right now. I’ve experienced the other side of the coin however because my mother suffers from multiple-sclerosis. As her condition has accelerated it has compromised her mobility and her lifestyle. My mother’s M-S requires her to take a shitload of medications. This is America.
The pharma-industrial complex charges insurance companies exorbitant fees for their medication and insurance companies in turn increase our premiums and co-pays for these medicines. These two entities run unchecked and unregulated thanks to senators and congressmen who are lobbied to the tune of BILLIONS. My government is leaving me out to dry as a guinea pig or worse to the forces of big medicine.
Universal healthcare could change this situation, but no presidential candidates are stepping forward to champion this cause. Why does a nation like Cuba have a healthcare system that pwns America yet they don’t have enough money nationally to import automobiles that aren’t less than fifty years old? Where are the morality advocates to protest for the U.S.’ treatment of the infirmed?
Great insight D, but I gotta rock with Barack on this one, being he’s the only candidate I can trust to share some trees and sniff the yay when White starts akkin funny, which they’re guaranteed to.
whens that change gonna come …we need some social upheaval like the chilluns in the 60’s and 70’s had ..maybe a nice picket line might make the big suits change shit around ….but i think the youth of today would rather smoke a blunt and spend countless hours playing slayer via a plastic guitar. …why are the youth so fucking complacent .!?!!? why dallas …why!!!!
I mean health care is very important to me since i am somewhat athletic and risk life and limb skating like a lunatic in areas of extreme vehicular gridlock …besides school debt ….worrying about whether i break my arm and cant pay for it if im enjoying a session really bothers me …it shouldn’t be that way .
Once you get that school debt off your back you will go back into debt with a mortgage. After you pay off that thirty year mortgage and retire you will go into debt for your healthcare. What should be our golden years are being given to corporate executives for their golden parachutes.
I’m looking at Edwards and his stance against corporate greed.
i thought slavery ended …dammit

^ LM,
Edwards biggest problem to national election isn’t the fact that he has a healthcare proposal that would regulate insurers and big pharma, but the fact that he is pro-union.
I’m with CJ on this one… I love white women like the best NFLer but I’m going “Bros before Hoes” on this election.
I automatically assume that if you’re a serious presidential candidate (acceptance wise) someone has you in they’re pocket about something. Honestly, I roll with O cause he strings more sentences that make sense together. Plus they was trying to shit on him big time earlier in the running. Hell him and Edwards will end up the ticket. Nobody want’s to roll with Hillville.
That increased copay and prescription costs is a bitch. For real. Just when I think it can’t get any worse? I get proven wrong once again.
It’s a selection not an election…….we’re all up shits creek w/o the TP either way.
United H8’s stay losin’!
Bro, straight from O’s site: http://www.barackobama.com/issues/healthcare/
He doesn’t endorse a national health SERVICE like the one in the U.K., but he does favor a system that makes health care affordable to those who pay and subsidized for those who can’t pay. I think that’s more realistic for America. The only way we get a NHS like the UK or France or Canada is when all of our rich folk die off… unfortunately, they have health insurance and wont be dieing anytime soon.
And…
I don’t mean to sound like an Obama stan but I can’t help but to think Edwards’ “anti-greed” campaign is nothing but bull. Edwards is the man with the $400 haircut, remember? He’s also a former ambulance-chaser who targeted insurance companies in order to settle for millions of dollars. If you ask me, his greed was part of the problem before he became a politician.
Obama is the one who worked as a pro bonno attorney for the underclass in Chicago after he got that J.D. I don’t know, like I said, I don’t want to be a stan, but Edwards isn’t real. He’s just another clone.
fuck that pro-israel faggot.
