I agree with you. And why is it that when someone votes for Obama, no one says that person is sexist?

I'm spending Mother's Day in WV, canvassing for Hillary.

Of the three presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton is the one with the most aggressively stance on tackling global warming and supporting renewable energy. In February in Houston, she went to the oil companies and said you should be energy companies and embrace renewable energies.
    The President of Shell Oil, Mr. John Hoftmesiter, said in his interview that last year (2007) Shell, along with the other major oil companies, invited ALL presidential contenders from both camps to give their presentation of their energy policy as President. Surprising to him and the other Oil Company Execs, only Hillary Clinton showed up and while she wasn't applauded vigorously on every tenet of her policy (taxes on oil), she was applauded for a concise well thought out program to deal with energy problems facing the US in the next few decades. Furthermore, Hoftmesiter chastised the Bush administration for not having a concise national energy policy as he said, "We have NO leadership in Washington."  McCain, as well as Obama were nowhere to be seen at this Energy Summit.

I personally like Hillary's plan to create 5 million green-collar jobs in the renewable energy field and her plan for ConnieMaes (like Fannie Maes) to support homeowners to installing solar and other renewable energy fixtures.

I liked your diary. It made sense to me. I work in DC and this is how this town runs. When I heard his statement, my first thought was: "someone offered him a job."

I'll be making calls, too. See you there.

Wait. They are now! strange. Anyway, excellent diary. Keep up the good work!

Alegre, good diary, as always. Your videos aren't working.

That is so interesting about the HIspanic vote. Thank you for the information.

How tight do you think CA would be for Obama since he doesn't poll well with Hispanics?

As for his "bitter" remarks, I think this will have a deep impact on Obama. It's an offensive comment, aimed at small town America.

another good diary, alegre!

What a beautiful diary! thank you for writing it!

Great video, but did they forget to mention Angela Merkel, the Chancellor (prime minister) of Germany? Now that's a woman who fought for her job!

I cried when I read this. I live in fear of losing my health insurance. How can we be such a rich country and not take care of our people?

Another excellent diary! Thank you. Happy St. Patty's Day to you.

Is there a way to attend part of the conference? Or to just drop in? Is there a website for the conference?

Alegre,

I join you in this writers' strike. I used to post at DailyKos, but gave up because of the attacks. In some ways, DailyKos is the reason I became a HIllary supporter.
