No offense intended, but I really wonder whether it would really make a difference for your country whether Obama or Clinton turns out to be the candidate for the Democrats. I mean, isn't it very likely that the looser will become the vice-president, if the other should win? They are still in the same political party after all.


But then, I'm not from the USA and therefore most likely not as informed about the upcoming election in your country than you lot are. So, please forgive me if my comment should be utter nonsense. ;)

I also wonder if the loser will be the V.P. candidate.

Oh well, when John McCain wins, it won't matter.

The winner of the Democrat Party's nomination can choose whoever they want to be their running mate. So if Clinton wins she could choose Obama or she could choose Ted Kennedy or any other Democrat who qualifies.

TMZ was showing something on Tom Hank's endorsement (of Hillary?). That would compare to Oprah's endorsement of Obama.

The news reports here in Auz are saying Hillary is all but sunk.

Because it would be a change and we here in new zealand had two women prime ministers and also england had a woman prime minister so it is about time that america had a woman president. and there is nothing wrong with that.

It's certainly wouldn't be a bad time for a president somewhat differnet from the stereotypical US president. Personally I just don't trust Hillary. She just doesn't feel right - or genuine. Obama on the other hand seems to be a man of integrity with a genuine passion for what he believes in. Based on what I have seen thus far, Obama is the man for the job. Only time will tell...

What a strange comment - there is a whole lot more to electing someone than their sex - have you looked into this woman at all?
I wouldn't want her leading my country - I think I'd have to move to another country!

I don't want her running mine either!! :eek:

And about the VP comments: Both Obama and Clinton have said (so far) that they would not pick each other to be a VP. But later on down the road, who knows what's gonna happen?

It would be like Julia Gillard being our Prime Minister. Or worse, Bob Brown. :rolleyes: If that happened, I'd be moving to a place far, far away.
