media mistakes

Because there are no major policy differences between Clinton, Obama and Edwards the media has become enamored of Obama on the basis of looks and personality. They have chosen the cool kid in the class with the ready smile and the boyish good looks over the intellectual girl with experience and maturity.The general tone of their coverage is that whatever Barack says and does is inspirational and what Hilary says and does is crassly political, divisive, and racial. In raising the racial issue the media may trigger a white backlash if people percieve that African Americans are voting for Obama simply on the basis of color.The Clintons have been true friends of minorities in this country throughout their careers. It is not by accident that Bill has been called " The First Black President ". If Hilary is elected, African Americans and women of all colors can count on her to keep fighting to advance policies that are important to them. Voting for Obama is a fun fantasy to indulge in temporarily but his demonstrated lack of experience is too dangerous for the times we live in. By November I trust that the majority of Americans will have had enough of what the media has been force feeding us and vote for Hilary who will provide experience and level headed maturity in addition to a womans perspective. Being President involves making difficult decisions that impact people in a very real way, you cannot just cast a "present "vote and let others do the heavy lifting. He or she will be tested by our enemies. Do we want someone who after thougtful reflection will respond in a measured way ala Bill Clinton or do we want a rash response ala George Bush?The Republicans know that their only chance to retain the Presidency is for Barack to be the party nominee. They know they cannot defeat Hilary. By electing Hilary we can be sure that she will work to undo all the dangerous and costly policies of the present administration. She will have her experience as First Lady and as a Senator to draw from as well as the experience of the most popular President since JFK. Her husband Bill Clinton. The media had an obligation to question Bush"s words and policies leading up to the war and failed. they also failed to expose the 935 lies that this administration has told us. Why should we trust them now?
