Head to Head: Sen. Clinton vs. Sen. Obama

For many of us, Super Tuesday is tomorrow and it is the first step to creating a much needed change to a country down and in dire need of help. Many of us are vexed and torn about who to vote for when it comes to the Democratic Nominee. For voters, there is no better way than to judge our candidates than to see how they react under pressure in a debate or to hear what they say and how they react to tough questions. We all need to be dedicated in getting out and voting. Many of us do not like the position that we are in today with the so-called leader we have today, our chance to begin changing it is tomorrow - it lies in our hands. For Democrats, the vote is between two candidates being that the third candidate (who is probably the right choice dropped out, for once, we can say that a candidate was neither Black enough or Woman enough - big props to my big bro Rob). On the Republican side, many of us have our minds made up: we don't want/need another Ultra-Conservative President in office - especially when they mention Ronald Reagan as a Republican/Conservative Hero - that's more of a reason for me to steer away from those guys. Although I'm only in my early 20's, I've still seen the after effects of what Reagan has done to the working class and Black community. (see, the Crack Epidemic, war on welfare, affirmative action, & war on poverty - disguised as a war on drugs). We still see these after effects as someone who gets locked up for a particular amount of possession of crack/cocaine gets at least 15 years in the pen - I'm not arguing against that, but when you compare that to White Collar Crimes and DUIs that murder people daily - and see these crimes get ignored or getting off by paying fines - the worst case scenario is they get 11 years in most cases - unacceptable. Here is a series of video-clips of the Democratic Debate between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton last Thursday. Be informed, Be educated, Be aware.
