On Hillary


Hillary has a lot of support, so I'll start with her. As I'm registered to vote in Wisconsin but have no current address in Wisconsin I've had to reapply to vote in Minnesota, and as I'm living in Ireland not Minnesota, I needed an absentee ballot. I tried to register, but sadly it was too late and I'll not be voting in the primaries. So here's some information for those of you that will be voting. Hillary's not my choice, but I'll be beginning with her anyhow. Following is some basic information I got from CNN:
-She supports abortion rights
-She supported Bush's immigration reform legislation
-She wants extensive gun background checks and regulation
-She supports individual health insurance coverage for all Americans
-She supports expanding stem cell research
-She originally supported use of force in Iraq but now wants troops withdrawn and a cap put on the number of American troops in Iraq
-She
supports civil unions, wants it to be up to states to decide on laws
-She opposes Bush's ideas on social security changes, and
-She is opposed to extending tax cuts

For information provided by her and her campaigners (so not biased at all) you can go to her webpage at http://www.hillaryclinton.com/
