As somebody who spends way too high a percentage of his income on prescriptions, doctors, labs and hospitals, I would LOVE universal healthcare. I don't know which makes us look more backward: 1. no universal healthcare 2. capital punishment 3. still not using the metric system. Although I'm personally glad to see that we're holding strong on #3 with our pals in Liberia and Myanmar, it is a little stupid at this day and age.

As somebody who spends way too high a percentage of his income on prescriptions, doctors, labs and hospitals, I would LOVE universal healthcare. I don’t know which makes us look more backward:

1. no universal healthcare
2. capital punishment
3. still not using the metric system.

Although I’m personally glad to see that we’re holding strong on #3 with our pals in Liberia and Myanmar, it is a little stupid at this day and age.

I think our four top candidates are all winners. Here's how I rank them personally: 1. Edwards 2. Richardson 3. Obama 4. Clinton At the moment it looks like Clinton is the favorite and may prevail. That's OK too but I wish she were more progressive. I have two big issues this time around. 1. Getting out of stupid Republican wars. 2.

I don't trust the greens to do it, and we don't have primaries, so it's all on your shoulders. I just hope you dems do a good job of picking somebody for me to vote for.
