		<description>Agreed. WJC did think too highly of him in retrospect and perhaps that is why I at one time liked Richardson. Oh well, live and learn. I do hope that butterball with a goatee, Richardson, gets his just desserts.</description>

		<description>AND, let me add.  Things DO happen for a reason.  Sometimes it may not be clear at the time, but necessary steps.  Now Bill Clinton knows what Hillary DID :) about Bill Richardson.  Bill thought Richardson had integrity, at least to loyal friends, he just didn&#039;t realize Billie Boy doesn&#039;t have a loyal bone in his body except for himself and definitely doesn&#039;t have integrity.

Bill doesn&#039;t have to wonder and waste his time on the loser anymore.  AND..President Clinton DID...I got to see him when he came out to campaign for Billie Boy&#039;s reielection campaign, and Senator Bingamn.  You know, the two losers who endorsed Barack.</description>

		<description>I hadn&#039;t been aware of that about Richardson. I quit listening to anything he had to say in the Spring of 2008. He wasn&#039;t bad when he was Secretary of Energy, especially after that weirdo Hazel O&#039;Leary. He let ambition and greed get the better of him, though, and the Clintons are better off without him as an ally.</description>

		<description>The baby&#039;s attorney was white, from a white section of the state.  This was her first case.  The foster parents were white; they lived in a white city and this was their first black foster child.  (The pediatrician practiced in this same city.)

Just because this story is horribly tragic, does not mean it is not true.</description>

		<description>And, don&#039;t forget, Richardson&#039;s own ambitions trump all, including country.

Richardson increased the cost of doing a recount by record amounts to avoid doing a recount on NM 2004 election that they KNEW was corrupted.  I won&#039;t even get in to how it is suspected that they banked -so to speak, that the machines purchased for only the 2004 election would be faulty and give skewed results, but they were quickly scrapped after the 04 election, one time use, all those MILLIONS of dollars, to buy better ones for his 08 run.  And of course, he ordered results erased INSTANTLY.  

No no, no one, even his &quot;good friend&quot; Kerry would stand in HIS way of possibly becoming Presidenot himself.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;On election day that majority obviously thought him to be the best qualified candidate or they would have voted for someone else. Your opinion concerning his qualifications is the minority opinion.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Bush was also elected by a majority on 2004, Zippy. I guess that sort of shoots your little argument down concerning qualified candidates and the ability of the electorate to vote one into office. Let me tell you, one of little gray matter, the electorate is often quite wrong.

But the most glaring bit of information you left out of your little rinse and spin cycle is also the most obvious, Zippy. You really aren&#039;t THAT obtuse, are you?

Nice try, yet again munchkin troll, but shame on you for once again leaving out much in the way of pertinent information.</description>

		<description>Richardson lost any cred long ago.  He&#039;s been a dirty dealing politician for a long time.  He found his positions great for pay for play.  That&#039;s how he entered as Governor for NM and THAT was just to run for President himself.

He has stolen so much from the people of NM, forcing his kickback partners in at every level and every place of busines.  Who ever gives him big donations, gets contracts and money back.  And, if you don&#039;t give enough, he cancels the contract. He has brought a level of corruption to NM that most were willing to vote for him as President to get him out of this state.  

Of course, that would have only strengthenend his hand, so I&#039;m happy THAT didn&#039;t work.

Richardson also tried to get his hands on the state retirement fund, but, they thought they successfully shielded that from government take over.  But instead, he put his people in, forcing to give to his pals, like CURRENT investigation on Mr. Cranky RATTNER, the new Car Czar, who THREATENED the Finance companies, is linked with the pay for play with Richardson in New Yorks Pension scam that he&#039;s under investigation for.

An administration of crooks.

		<description>It is just not that black and white.  Rather than not vote at the top of the ticket, some of us voted for whom we thought would be the best of two not particularly appealing candidates.

Next time, if in a similar situation, I&#039;m not voting for president.

0&#039;s &quot;job approval rate&quot; is not impressive.</description>

		<description>This &#039;highly educated President refuses to release ANY of his records from Columbia or Harvard.  Wonder why that is!
As to his &#039;prolific written record&quot;, do you mean his books, which were ghost written and from which whole passages have been shown to be untrue?  What about his writings while editor of the Harvard Law Review?  Oops...he is the only editor who NEVER wrote anything!  What about his written record of legislative accomplishments while in the Illinois senate?  Next to none!  What about his long record of achievements while serving those several long months in the US Senate?  How many can you name?  Better, write them on the back of a matchbook cover.
This man is a charlatan whose major interest is himself and his middle eastern friends.
Do you think you will be exempt when he starts taking away our rights as citizens?  How foolish.</description>

		<description>Totally agree with Track-A-Crat&quot;:

&quot;But here’s the thing: when the most qualified people are denied positions that they’ve earned, we all suffer.

I’m weeping inside that this even needs to be stated.&quot;

It needs to be stated only to the people who are not qualified, but are still driven to go after the &quot;prize&quot;, often at any cost.  I have no qualms whatsoever about passing judgement on Barack and Michele Obama by including them in that group.  

And as an aging member of the population, it is devastating for me to recognize that so many more people are in that group now than were even 10 years ago and certainly 40 or 50 years ago.  It will take an act of nature or a major miracle to change the picture.  I am convinced of that.  The color of BOs skin or his teleprompted speechifying are not going to cut it.</description>

		<description>Ziggy, 

I in no way stated or implied that we have an affirmative action President.  Please see my reply to Andy Fuchs nearer the top.

You are right that people &lt;em&gt;perceived&lt;/em&gt; him to be the most qualified candidate, for whatever that is worth - most voters know lamentably little about the candidate for whom they&#039;re voting.</description>

		<description>We don&#039;t have an affirmative action President, we have a President who was elected by a majority of  American voters.  On election day that majority obviously thought him to be the best qualified candidate or they would have voted for someone else.  Your opinion concerning his qualifications is the minority opinion.  

Less than 13 percent of the current population of the United States are African Americans.  The  highest percentage of African Americans was in 1790, when they represented 19.3 percent of the population.  Black people didn&#039;t elect Barack Obama.  Nor did white supporters vote for him &lt;em&gt;because&lt;/em&gt; he is black.</description>
