I have been a registered Democrat since 1981, when I turned 18. I was raised in a home where I was reminded that my 1st birthday party on November 29, 1963 was cancelled because everyone was in mourning over the Kennedy assassination. My family has lived the American Dream. My parents were born to immigrant parents who worked hard to provide for their families and through hard work and education succeeded. I have supported the ERA, a women's right to choose and other issues sacrosanct to most Democrats.
I cannot and will not vote for Obama. He is the sort of person who has been running for president his whole life. He lacks the requisite experience. His choice of Senator Biden demonstrates his utter lack of judgment. I also have a long memory. Joe Biden is a dishonest plagiarist and has consistently demonstrated his lack of integrity and respect. Did Obama miss the Anita Hill debacle? Did he miss the utter lack of decency that Biden demonstrated in the Robert Bork hearings? How can Obama promise change by picking a running mate who is responsible for much of the gridlock in Washington?
I would have voted for Senator Clinton, but now I'm voting for McCain.
