I'll just settle for suggesting he ponder this question on his own blog. It would be wrong of me to suggest that joe just not vote, wouldn’t it?

Should I vote my race or my gender? I’m a white male. Should I vote my race or my gender?

We are a part of something so much bigger than each of us. The issues are so overwhelming, a city lost, innocent people murdered by our military, middle class turning to poverty, our private phones tapped, children with no health care, our dollar shrinking, our big companies moving overseas, high school, college kids gunned down, gangs growing stonger. polar bears going bye bye; we all sat too long, but now it feels like people care again and realize that we have to fix these problems, not wait for politicians.

Everyone got to vote and we didn't leave until the last voter left. The results are still not and we don't know who won New Mexico, so I'm being patient. I voted for Obama because he is eight days older than me and maybe its time my generation ran things, since the Woodstock generation has made a mess of everything. One of the older Clinton supporters told me I should for vote for Clinton because she is a woman. I replied in that case then we should vote for Condi Rice because she is a woman. Obama seems to have character and his policies are good. My argument is to not vote with your gender or race but also by if the person has character. For me it seems as if for Hillary that this election is all about her and she will do anything to win. Those type of people (male or female, not matter what color) are the type of people that don't care who they hurt and are more likely to back stab anyone. These people are in every work place through out the world don't enjoy working with them. Obama seems to be someone I wouldn't mind working with because he would care about everyone doing well and working towards the same goal. Now I've got two Obama lawn signs in my front yard.
