Bill Richardson endorses Barack Obama

it is nice to see bill richardson endorse barrack obama. i like to say to Obama. no weapon form against you shall prosphere.

Richardson is a loser and his endorsement won’t change the fate of the sinking Obama ship. Obama cant have it both ways, he cant denounce his racist pastor and still support him. Americans are not swollowing that one and many call for resignation

This endorsement just want to change the topic of Wright affect and fooled the American people, especially younger people.

Wow. Crushing blow for Hillary. As a former supporter of Hillary, I have to agree with Richardson in that it’s time for Democrats to stop fussing and support Obama. Hillary really should have dropped out a month ago so hopefully she will do so now.

Hispanic here. Endorsement does not matter. Already voted for Hillary.

I knew Richardson was going to support Obama when shortly after dropping out of the race he was on CNN with a Go T. Unfortunately, during the interview, Solidad O’Brien made fun of the fact that Richardson snorted while he laughed, not particularly cool and he was embarassed. In any case, being that he’s a Latino, I wonder why Hillary had the Latino vote while he didn’t….I guess Latino’s vote for candidates over race. As a Latina, I am glad we vote for Hillary.

The only people the pastors remarks are a “topic” to are the media and opponents of Obama.
Frankly the People and voters of the United Staes are sick of hearing WHAT SOMEONE ELSE said…

Obama/Richardson – thats America’s winning ticket – ticket to Hell.

Obama what a joke with what happend this week. Who in the USA could vote for obama.

This endorsement at this time is designed by the Obama’s campaign in order to distract the public from the controversy of Obama’s embrace and acceptance of his white-hating and country-hating pastor, Wright for the last 20 years. Does Obama have a hidden agenda against or in favor of a particular race?

I call Richardson a “Once in a Lifetime Buffoon..”

I knew Richardson was going to support Obama when shortly after dropping out of the race he was on CNN with a Go T.

This endorsement today was clerly designed to give Obama something good with which to end a horrible two weeks. I have to say that I was disappointed by Richardson’s endorsement. He is the governor of a state that went for Hillary, with a great deal of help from the latino population of New Mexico. Richardson is obviously not in tune with the latino electorate. Richardson certainly did not “respect” the majority of latino voters, and I believe this will work against him. Hillary is the better candidate, she has more experience, she is a hard worker, and she does not give up. These are the attributes I want in my president. Hillary 08!!!!

Thankfully Anthony doesn’t speak for all Latinos and Latinas!
And, for those still trying to nurse the Wright story along, Martin Marty, a well-respected theologian with no axe to grind has expressed his support for Trinity United Church of Christ!
Obama 2008 — Yes, WE CAN!!!

Good attempt to distract public’s attention from the Wright fiasco. Too bad, it won’t work !!

Bill:Obama what a joke with what happend this week. Who in the USA could vote for obama.
I will be voting for Obama. Because you Hillary Clinton crazy people want everyone to hate Obama because of something he did not say but his Pastor said, you think everyone in America is going to follow you? Not me. I stand for myself and speak for myself. You do not own my vote. NOW WHAT?

So much for representing the will of your constituents. That’s why the Latinos would not vote for snort laughing Richardson. By the way, remember when all of the Obamacans were posting angrily against Richardson in the belief that he was trying to rig NM for Hillary. Suddenly he’s their hero…such fickle bunch.

Why is Obama so great??? He is just a politician with what some call good speech making. Personally, his delivery is irritating to me. He acts like he is the second-coming and I find that disgusting. Richardson is a buffoon so who cares who he supports. I just want to know what Obama promised him to get his support. Get over the entertainment factor of Obama and you will see the crap underneath.

jijalgi – thank god for a sane voice in the dark, finally someone who gets it. Nothing in this country will ever change until we get away from the current 2 party system.

As a life long resident of New Mexico – until retiring to Hawaii five years ago, I know Governor Bill Richardson to be a sincere, dedicated, tireless public servant with good judgment and the best interest of the public at heart.
His endorsement of Senator Obama for President is part of a growing wave of the future. AMERICA IS FINALLY READY TO RESUME ITS LEADERSHIP ROLE ON THIS PLANET.
On this Good Friday, I am thankful to God for his mercy, strength and blessings to us all, and I am a proud supporter of Bill Richardson and Barack Obama as “contributors to the cause.”

Obama is playing the soft, well spoken, your only choice democratic candidate game. Too bad Richardson has teamed up with this guy. Obama is a person who doesn’t particulary like his grandmother, never talks about how his mother was an inspiration to him. Instead he has all this shady characters who inspierd him and whom he calls friends. Why? Because all this people are black and hate America.

Edna
I dont judge him by what his pastor says, but its raises questions. But i do find the “typical white man” statement offensive and will be voting accordingly. Im one in crowd like me. The white, angry middle class guy who being overlooked in this whole election and WILL VOTE ACCORDINGLY

Obama- a true leader! gimme a break!
he had many chances to lead and change at his church, but he chose not to, instead he subjected many children including his own to the evil sermons and teachings, like the madrasahs.

I rather have a cheater as a President,but patriotic one. Obama doesn’t give me confidence he won’t sell out this country to the terorrists. Looking at his track record and association with people who hate America,I wouldn’t put it past him.

The Obama haters are really funny when they can’t even keep their attacks consistent. First they insist that Obama disown his pastor and friend because of some comments that only they perceive as racist. Then they criticize Obama for “throwing his grandmother under a bus” (whatever that means) for criticizing her racist rhetoric. I thought that was what you wanted him to do? Make up your mind!!!

Bill Richardson claimed endorsement only after the hope of re-vote in Mi. and Fl. is unlikely………what a calculated politican..
BTW, Latinos don’t like traitor in their root….

This is A very SAD Day for The Democrats! We Just LOST The Election! BIG TIME!

Oops, sorry for the typo, I meant DCVoter. My apologies.

Courageous and Obama ? Is Richardson talking about the same Obama who equated his Grandmother with Rev. Wright ? The same Grandmother who raised him since he was ten, gave him all the opportunities to succeed in life and Obama calls her “a typical White person”.

Obama is gonna get thumped in Pa. It’s gonna be a sad day of realization. Obama supporters will “know” their choice cannot win any longer. He is mortally damaged.

Good News! Now Pelosi, Kennedy & Kerry DONT have to vote the way their states have! Gov. Richardson has shown the superdelegates the real way to “play by the rulez” because thats what the SDs are there for …superior judgement …not the will of the people. By the way – if you are from a state that the majority voted for Barack Obama please ignore the above and go ahead and vote the will of the people. Cuz thats what a double standard is for!

The time has come to decide if we THE PEOPLE want to really change the direction of our nation.
, or do we need to keep this family fight between us going for a longer period
? While am sure Hillary would make a terrific president.
Its time to face the fact that for our country’s sake we need to stop this primary election and once again come together as a country not just a party. My comment is not just for democrats but for all those of us
That are part of this UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Our country will need all of us to change its direction. If we don’t come together the same people that have govern up to now will keep us in the same direction…Look the war was a lie. We Americans were lie to! Was the war for oil?? Who knows does not matter how or why just that it has to end….Obama has pledged to end it! In a responsible manner that’s the best alternative of all the candidates on the table. Yes he might be young but I for one want to think he is honest. ND MAY GOD BLESS OUR NATION.

I’ve been on my own boycott. I don’t read contents from any DNC emails. I don’t contribute to DNC. If Obama wins the nomination, my contributions will go to RNC.

Fair enough, Bill Richardson.
A majority of the voters in New Mexico support Senator Hillary Clinton, and you endorse Barak Obama.
Doesn’t that go against the idea that superdelegates are supposed to represent the will of their voters?
Perhaps Bill Richardson feels that the Ted Kennedy/John Kerry abandonment of their voters justifies his behavior.
Or, perhaps we all need to step back and consider the source of the endorsement.
On more than one occasion, Bill Richardson has faced criticism as to whether his personal conduct can withstand public scrutiny.
Specifically, Lieutenant Governor of New Mexico, Diane Denish, told reporters from the Albuquerque Journal that she avoids standing or sitting near Richardson because of his physical manner which she describes as “annoying.”
Dennison said Bill Richardson “pinches my neck. He touches my hip, my thigh, sort of the side of my leg.”
Governor Richardson calls any suggestion questioning the appropriateness of his behavior as “mean spirited.”
Hillary Clinton, John McCain, and Ralph Nader probably won’t be “mean spirited, but I doubt whether they will lose any sleep over the Richardson endorsement.

Listen, all sides contributed to this mess including FL & MI, so if we want the votes to count the only FAIR thing to do is Split the votes BETWEEN the two candidates so everyone at least gets some of what they want. WE all need to discuss this like adults and look for uniting and positive solutions. Where is the voice of reason. Look at the numbers.

Clearly, Obama has promised Richardson something he values more than friendship… The VP slot or his choice of cabinet positions, no doubt. It certainly wasn’t the deliriously lame speech Obama delivered. Thankfully, most Hispanic voters have already made their choice, Hillary Clinton.

It is funny when some people endorsed obama, they all said he has right leadership, judgment and inspiration for people:
The fact is:
1. Leadership: NO because he has not been in any public leader position yet;
2. Judgment: good judgment on house market; anythng else, wrong or unknown
3. Inspiration: excellent – the same as his mentor Pastor Wright..
Anything else is just dulplication….

Thanks Anthony. You are right! Bill Richarson DOES NOT AND NEVER WILL speak for us. I also agree with drpolitics1, yes, Bill might try to cheat for Obama that why it took so long to have all the votes counts in New Mexico.

Today soon to former governor Bill Richardson endorses Obama against the will of the people in his own state. He is now disowned in the Hispanic community.

Time for Hillary to throw in the towel. She can’t get the votes or delegates she needs. Her candidacy has been bad for the Democratic party and bad for America. Sorry Hill, maybe in 2016 you can be Richardson’s VP.

I like Obama – despite what many of you have to say. Anything is better than McCain and Hillary is old news.
I am not particularly fond of Richardson, but I think he made the right choice to endorse Obama.
For you Latinos who think Hillary will care about you – you are right! She cares about your vote. That’s all!

Let the Veepstakes begin… right now, somewhere, Edwards is being wooed by the Clintons.
Obama/Richardson – interesting combo. The GOP will have to work hard against that one. McCain will try and divide the Hispanic vote and get the disaffected Hillary vote. The 527s will aim their campaign to middle class, working class whites, and Asians… that will get ugly. Right-Wing vs. Wright-Wing!
And unless Clinton concedes… you still have a Convention fight on your hands… unless of course Obama chooses Hillary as Veep. Either way – still very do-able!

Bill Richardson supporting Obama is like Sheila Jackson-Lee from TX supporting Hillary Clinton, with their constituents going in opposite directions.
Why now? Why no before the Texas primary? Why is Richardson endorsing Obama in Oregon?
May be the wound to the Barack Obama’s “united” campaign message is worst than the published polls are telling the voters and Obama camp knows it.
Bill Richardson endorsing Obama will have similar effect to Hispanics, than Ted Kennedy and John Kerry endorsements had to the voters of MA.

So Bill Richardson is a liar just like Obama…who says that the Super D’s should vote the way their states do….well, Richardson really set up his state. I see this endorsement turning what Latino vote Obama had to Clinton….as some have said here, Richardson is a liar, cheater, basically a snake just like Obama. Obama must have promised him something…this endorsement is definitely for personal gain. It’s ok, many Super D’s are beginning to recant their support of Obama……his true “color” that of a chamillion are beginning to show. It’s sad that people call him the “Messiah”, the “Savior” of the world. Even on lady in my city said when she shook his hand that she was ‘touched by the Messiah’….now that is scary! He knows his campaign is dwindling, so he just needs to bow out and support Hillary…she will win the nomination anyway. McCain and the GOP’s actually want this idiot Obama to win, because he would be easily defeated in November….Hillary would be a BIG challenge. Give it up Obama…you’re a loser…again, go back to your “cultist” church and support your quack pastor like you have for the last 20 years! American doesn’t want you……red, white, black, yellow, whatever color you are this week…forget it, you’re a loser and America knows this!

I think the Clinton political machine has been more or less playing nice with Obama, perhaps not to the high standard that Obama set for his campaign (that’s his own d@mn fault). He has made it blatantly obvious that anything goes now and I hope she goes for the jugular. She should really show him the full force of 35 years of experience.
If they are going to continue to claim that “she will say or do anything to win” then let her make good on that — we wouldn’t want to call them liars now would we?

Richardson already admitted after he dropped out that he would wait to endorse one of the other candidates so could could endorse the one he felt was going to win. Doesn’t sound like he cares much about the candidates qualifications or integrity. He just wants to back the winner.

MattOhio – very true but even more telling is the state of the area in Chicago he represented as state senator. He did nothing I have found to improve conditions or bring people in that community together. It seems he feels a sense of entitlement is due him just as Wright seems to preach… the white man owes the black man. Bush’s strategy of united the country was to unite everyone behind a common enemy. Very effective for a while. What I am seeing here is a parallel – he is trying to unite non-whites behind a common enemy called white people. His book clearly shows actual statements about his personal feelings about white people. His recent statements about typical white people show us he still harbors resentment. A true leader said “Unity for the sake of unity is not my goal. I want to unify the country around meeting big goals.” That leader is Senator Clinton. She clearly set goals that benefit all Americans in all sectors of our society. Obama created a racial rift where none existed (per the data) for his own political gain.

Both Obama and Richardson claim Obama opposed the Iraq war from the start. But remember, in this country most whites supported the war while most blacks opposed it when the war began. Obama’s stance on the war just tells us that he makes his judgment only based on racial factor. He believes the racial stance consideration should be above this nation’s ultimate interest.
I also opposed the Iraq war in the beginning. But I can’t say I have a better judgment than Hillary Clinton’s if I run the president bid. I am neither white nor black.

Can we please see Obama’s 2007 tax returns? Where are they? Where is the Reverend Wright? Why has the TUCC web page been changed to hide their true beliefs? Why is Gov. Richardson going against the votes of his state? Because character doesn’t matter, oops, it does matter if you are Hillary Clinton. That stabbing feeling in Bill and Hillary’s back today is the thanks for the positions, the presige, the opportunities and memories from Gov. no character Bill.

It is so funny listening to Obama supporters saying Clinton should have dropped out a month ago!
How the delegate count can never put her over the top, yet it can!
How they conform to a guy who puts a spin into everything that goes against him from Rezko to Wright to Ayers and is simply a standard pass the buck politician who brings nothing but words and even his own words end up being lies as proven from NAFTA-gate to Wright!
But that is ok, because he threw race in everyones face to block the media from doing their job!
Shame how Clinton never used womens rights issues to do the same, guess on candidate has some class and one is well just a want to be “King of the World” on dirty Chicago politics!
As for Richardson supporting Obama, big deal, rather have Clintons endorsement by Murtha over Richardson any day of the week! Now we await the next goof up by the Obama Campaign, who will put their foot in their mouth this time, Kerry again or will it be Michelle in another racially bias way….stay tuned folks, will be fun, especially if ever Obama the candidate of chanting transparency produces his schedules and taxes going back to his State Seante days and we see what Rezok really bought from all his dirty money he provided the do nothing politician that ignored freezing tenants andleft the chair empty on the NATO oversight Committee! Great job Obama, proving empty actions fill empty minds!

Rasmussen, previously projecting Obama with a strong lead has now issued a new poll with Obama and Clinton in a statistical tie. The trend is clear… Obama is losing support nationally. Conservative pollsters at FOX now show Clinton would beat McCain nationally. State polls are showing Obama is losing support in states he previously won. Apparently the Richardson endorsement is not helping Obama.

Bill Richardson is an opportunist, and not a particularly smart one. He has one agenda, to ride Obama’s shirt tails. He knows he’s lost the hispanic vote in his home state. He doesn’t mind watching football with Bill, but doesn’t want to work for Hill (a woman) so there’s nowhere else to go…

So far Obama has done a lot for this country. He has begun Civil War II. Barack Obama–”The Great Divider”.

The funny thing about the ability to post is that it shows a side of human behavior. People (whether you be latino, white, black, or purple) will throw a comment out there when what you read strikes you as an outrage.
It’s the people who agree with what they read that nod and think to themselves “yeah, that’s pretty much how it is!” that don’t feel the need to repudiate what was written.
For every person on here blasting Richardson and Obama, there are at least two more who applaud them.
Just something to think about… ;)

As a Latina, I have been discriminated against, mainly by white women in the work force. Though they hire me and I have performed my job duties as required, they always felt threatened. Anyway, the big difference between latinos and blacks is that we don’t cry everytime there is an issue. We try to handle it on our own. The point I’m trying to make is that there is a major problem in this country. I have black and white friends as well as latino friends, but we have all dogged each others race. It’s not race or the color of your skin, it’s the “class” that people are in. There is trash in every race!!! I know that people are going to scream about this, but perhaps dealing with and communicating with those over seas that hate us so much is the one thing we can do to mend the hate that is all over the world. Yes, we can’t force others to stop hating a certain race, but to be strong and show the world that we as a nation can unite could be a start. If the world sees that we have minorities in power, then perhaps they could start to understand and not hate this country so much. There has always been a “white” president and to the rest of the world, they can not be trusted. That’s all they know right now. To say that this country has no problem is just ignorant. We are more divided than people in Iraq. The only difference is that we don’t blow each other up as much as they do. We are American’s and we should act as American’s. This is what our nation has bled for in both wars and especially in the civil war!! I know that it will be hard to accept and I personally don’t like Obama. Everyone has some fault and are not perfect. EVERYONE!!! Yes Obama’s pastor is a jerk, but I think he is saying the things that we’ve all said at the water coolers at work or to our own families. We’ve all said that this country isn’t truthful. Look what we did as a nation when JFK got shot. We blamed the govt. and still do.. see, that’s what Wright has done. Just step back and think for a moment. We all hate Bush for not continuing to go after Bin Ladin. We to are guilty of condenming our own govt. It’s only natural. Come on people how much worse can it get. The man only has four years. If we don’t like how he’s doing the job, we wont re-elect him. We re-elected Bush and that was a bigger mistake. Obama can’t tie his own shoes without the House or Senate. There is a process and if he’s there to harm this country, we will impeach him. This is the same thing when blacks were about to be given civil rights.. harmony was there until then..hate broke out and then the storm calmed down and we delt with it. The same is happening here. People are so afraid of change and anything different. I’ll admit that I am as well.The reason we are feeling like this is because Bush has crippled this nation so bad that we don’t trust each other anymore. Will another 911 have to happen to pull us together again??!!!! NO. Remember when that happened, we forgot about our bigotry and fought as a nation against those who harmed us. I don’t know if Hillary will make a difference or not?? McCain is the same old stuff. If we don’t want that then we need to pull ourselves together and vote for either Obama or Hillary.

both OB and HRC are damaged goods !
DNC, pl come up with somebody else quick. Congrats. Mccain

Hey wasn’t Bill Clinton trying to seek residence in another country while dodging the draft?

Oh what deal did they cut. The Clinton campaign had staed to let the Wright thing run it’s course and not get in it. So then what happens? On Thursday night, the Obama campaign, to shift the spotlight to the Clintons, provided The New York Times with a picture of Mr. Wright and President Bill Clinton at the White House in 1998 at a breakfast meeting with religious leaders hours before the Starr report on the Monica Lewinsky scandal was made public.
Oh yea, courage we can count on from Obama. That was a pretty slimy move I think.

I keep hearing complaints about superdelegates (like Richardson) going against the will of their constituents.
It seems if Obama is ahead in the delegate count AND the popular vote and all superdelegates voted in step with their constituents, then it would all be over with Obama winning.
The only way Hillary has a chance is if a large number of superdelegates DON’T vote with their constituents. Which is precisely what she is trying to convince superdelegates to do.
Does anybody else here see the hypocrisy?

Thank You Monchis

I have been hearing that Bill Richardson actually supports Hillary but decided to show support for Obama so all the other SD’s can vote for Hillary. Some one needed to show the way for the other SD’s. So, Richardson decided to do that. Maybe he is really not a traitor after all.

Richardson is so inspiring i wonder why he is not still in the Race. Thank you for endorsing Obama, you truly care about america and the world.

Can some of the anti-Obama people on this blog explain something?
WHY WOULD ANYONE WHO HATES AMERICA TRY TO BECOME ITS PRESIDENT??
To suggest that Obama is anti-American is simply moronic.

Richardson is a betrayer, he betrayed to Clinton, and betrayed to Hispanic community. Fortunatly he is out of the race.
That is only his personal move. He is too near sighted.
I can tell some people who are not tenacious, they just want to see things finish ealy, don’t care the country or the party’s future, they give up easily.

Friends don’t do something like what Richardson did to Hillary. He is a politician first and Obama has promised him something he really wanted. I guess Richardson and Obama are kindred spirits in that words easily flow from their mouths, whether they are true or not.

Gerry,
THANK YOU for telling it like it is.
HATE, HATE, HATE is all they have perfected, these Clintonites.
She was DISHONEST about NAFTA to OHIOANS and basically stole the state based on lies – and they don’t even challenge their bigotted brains ‘why she’s lying in their faces’.
Unbelievable….

Gerry, Those fools are so ingnorant but they can not stop the will of God. What if McCain picked a black VP and somehow fall over because of his old age, they will still be stuck with a black President. It’s so sad how racist some people are and to suggest Barack is racist is foolish. Barack can’t be racist against himself.

Bill Richardson is a visionery governer, could find the leadership quality from a person of the younger generation to endorse his support is a prudent and courageous act rather than the older one, aimed no infringement of dignity.

Bill Richardson endorses a fellow democrat and Hillary supporters call him a traitor, a liar, and making secret deals??
This is what scares on-the-fence voters about another Clinton administration.
The “us vs. the them” bunker mentality.
All out political warfare, even when the “them” is fellow democrats.

You should see how Bill R campaigned with him talked infront of many people.
Richardson just can not hide his kiss kiss to Obama. Made me nauseous.

Richardson is jumping on a sinking ship

Bill Richardson calls Obama “a once-in-a-life-time-leader.” Based on what? His long legislative record, his taking his college team to an NCAA title, his great military career, his outstanding business success? What am I missing, his resume’ seems a bit sparse doesn’t it? As far as I can tell he hasn’t led any organization to anything, but what do I know, I’m just a typical white man. He sure can talk perddie though caint he?

Surely some dirty behind the scenes political trick in play. Wonder what Obama had to offer him to come out now. VP? Have to admit, clever political calculation.

Nothing is more scarier than having our US military salute someone who has been listening to hate sermons for 20+ years. If Obama had been in some inocuous job that would have been different. But, he was a community organizer, lawyer, state senator and then US senator. Day after day he listened to Wright and not a single word in defense of our Country. How can we stand to see our military salute someone like this??

All college drop out and Hillary’s salaried staff are here to denounce this endorsement. He should have done this before Taxas and Ohio primary.
You guys to naive to understand a diamond in gutter because you all only know the gutter. Come out of gutter.

This is another BIG BLOW to the Fox news media drama and their friends:
Its time to turn the page. with President – BARACK OBAMA
I am a 36 year old white guy and I think that this is significant in that, despite the controversy over Jeremiah Wright, the support for Barack Obama keeps on growing. I think that anyone with any sense at all knows that Barack Obama can’t be held responsible for what his pastor says. Barack Obama is his own man with his own ideas that differ from that of his pastor and everyone including Bill Richardson knows that. Even Bill Clinton was seen shaking hands with Jeremiah Wright. That doesn’t mean that the Clintons believe what Wright believes. I know what Wright said and I disagree with him, but I also know what Barack Obama has said and I believe Barack Obama when he says that he wants to unite us and take us away from the politics of old and into a bright new future. Barack Obama has managed to turn every negative campaign tactic used against him into something postive. He has risen above the political machine and I am glad to now have Bill Richardson in Barack Obama’s corner. It’s time for all of Barack’s detractors to get over it and accept that Barack Obama is going to be the nominee and the best choice for president.
God bless America
God bless Barack Obama.

The DNC is definately self-destructing. Lieberman left for that very reason. They do not have strong leaders who will bring people together. Dean is a big mistake. Pelosi is another one. Obama wins, the democratic party is definately not for me. McCain will be a good choice and hopefully someother DNC chairman will come along and be a good leader.

Trust me, Obama being endorsed by that lying hypocritical incompetent moronic buffoon Richardson is DEFINITELY
flattering to Hillary and a NET
PLUS for her.

I am so amazed by the blind loyalty from the Hispanics toward the Clintons. They do not love you, me, and the others. They only love $$$$, Wake up ! If you truely love this country, you would and will vote for OBAMA. My family from Taiwan wishes to have someone like OBAMA to vote for ! We are very lucky to have him ! Obama was born year of OX with the most distinctive leadership style. On the other side, Hillary was born year of BOAR with greedy charactor. In this year of RAT, BOAR (Hillary) is dead and OX (Obama) will have many big wins.

Hillary Promises to Help Puerto Ricans Decide on Statehood or Independence!
Hillary says “I would vigorously advance plans that would enable Puerto Rico to decide if it wants to remain a commonwealth or become a U.S. state or an independent nation.”
Puerto Rico has been a commonwealth since 1952. Its residents are almost equally divided on whether it should change its status:
Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens but cannot vote for president, and their representation in Congress is restricted to a single nonvoting member. National party conventions provide islanders a rare chance to have a direct say in Washington.
Obama hasn’t done nothing or even cared! He’ll care when he wants the votes from Puerto Rico.
Just like the African Americans are so united, we the Hispanic will unit together. We voted for Hillary and will vote for Hillary. If Hillary is not the nomonee, we will vote for McCain. It’s a guarantee!

I’m an independant Hispanic voter! Remember that the Hispanics carried Bush, we can go either way on who we vote. Obama might win the nomonee but never the election! Don’t feel salty that Obama only has less white voters, about 20% of Hispanics, no jews, no Asians. What’s left? Nothing but trying to get out of his relationship with too many ANTI-AMERICANS!

I’ll say it again…Bill Richardson is the biggest EMPTY suit in the history of mankind! Look up “empty suit” in the dictionary and you’ll see Richardson’s face.
This “so called” former Energy Secretary had the charge and duty to protect our nuclear secrets at Los Alamos and by virtue of his complete lack of due diligence allowed TOP SECRET information to be leaked to the Chinese via his careless and incompetent oversight. Richardson is a loser in the first degree and, I hope that Obama chooses him as his running mate, so the Republican machine can mow them both down! My words can’t emphasize enough how much of a traitor this man is.

In other cases, Clinton helped direct Hsu’s money to influential politicians who have yet to endorse her but hail from key presidential primary states. Clinton raised at least $6,000 from Hsu and his network last year for Governor John Lynch of New Hampshire, according to Lynch aides. Lynch has no plans to endorse anyone before the state’s crucial January primary, aides said.
And at least some of the $17,000 that Governor Jennifer Granholm of Michigan collected from Hsu and his associates in 2005 and 2006 stems from a Nov. 29, 2005, fund-raising reception for her hosted by Steven Rattner, a New York investment firm executive and major Clinton donor seen as a candidate for US Treasury secretary if Clinton wins. Granholm’s office said she has not made an endorsement decision.Continued

Granted she lived in the White House for eight years but she mainly held a traditional First Lady role that doesn’t make her any more qualified to be commander in chief than any other presidential wife.

Anthony, et. al.,
Do you speak for “most hispanics in the us”? You can categorically state how every hispanic is feeling. Do you think you have a better view on what kind of person Hillary is or Barack Obama is than Bill Richardson. You are like the guy in the centerfield bleachers complaining that the umpire two feet away from the plate missed a strike call. Bill Richardson clearly knows Hillary (and Bill Clinton) extremely well, and yet decided to endorse her opponent. Don’t you think he has a reason? Wake up and see Clinton as she is, which is anything to anybody until after the voting is over.

Any latino who says that latinos support Clinton is a big liar. Speak for yourself not for us, intelligent latinos.
As a latina I am very proud of Richardson. His coming forward in support of Obama is indeed courageous and just in time. He knows how superior a candidate Obama is and his timing for Obama’s endorsement is beautiful. If such a profound and great politician like Richardson becomes Obama’s VP the US will get back in shape again

When is Hillary going to finally step down? It is mathematically impossible for her to win more pledged delegates, to win more popular vote, and more states…does she really think going in to the convention having lost all of these, that the powers to be are just going to say, well sorry mr. obama but hillary is our nominee. She is sort of like huckabee at this point. What is she thinking? Has she no humility?

God Bless Barrack Obama. It is sad to see the hatred and divisions that we have in our world. It is a pleasure to have the experience of hearing and watching a brave and intelligent man like Barrack Obama rise to the top. I am voting for Barrack Obama and look forward to his leadership bevcause we need it desperately.
It is very sad to see the Hatred that Hillary Clinton instills into this political race. That is her only talent/quality to spread HATRED!

Obama is the LAST thing this country needs after 8 years of the BUSH trainwreck..And JUAN McCAIN is BUSH LITE..and you can expect 100 years of war because this is all this old nut case knows.BOMB-BOMB_BOMB..

Just find out that the person look at candidates’ passport are Obama’s friend’s friend. What a coincident!!!! I remembered Obama even try to blame on other candidates a couple of days back. Is this how obama playing? He is not a man with honest for sure. I am shamed of he is even in our party-the great democratic party.

Shame on you Richardson, you do not know the Spanish community, you are the perfect Judas after all Clinton did for you. I will vote for Hillary. I think that his indorsment will do no good in the Spanish community.

woooooooow, what’s wrong with people? all i read is NEGATIVE NEGATIVE NEGATIVE AND NEGATIVE! If you want to criticize the man, do it on positive basis! YES Richardson’s endorsement was a great slap on the face for Hillary giving he’s a Clinton friend, but the man chose what he believes is right, not on how Hispanics vote or for friendship with the Clintons!
Just because he is Hispanic doesn’t mean he should go with the Hispanic Majority, he should do what is RIGHT!
P.S: the comment that says Rezko has ties with terrorists, duh, stop the ignorant lies, the man did wrong stuff but that doesn’t mean we have to frame him for other stuff, this all sound to me like the voices that came out and said that Saddam Hussein had links with terrorists, and after the war, appeared to have no terrorism links, it was one of many lies to go to war, so please stop making out stuff that is not true, it hurts people badly.

Voter: What planet do you Live on!
“Richardson endorsed Obama so that the
other super delegates can support
Hillary”! No way! Warped Logic!
Get over it, she’s Done!
There isn’t a snowballs chance in hell
that Hillary can win the Nomination!

mrst: I just read you comments and I couldn’t say them better than you did. Hillary won New Mexico I don’t care if it was by a small margin, she won. Richardson betrayed the Clinton’s after Bill Clinton gave him a good position in his administration. Richardson is planning on Obama becomming president which I don’t think will happen. I believe Hillary will capture most of the superdelegates and surpass Obama. Hillary also won the big major states that Obama can’t win even if he won the nomination. McCain would then becom president.

Anyone that listens to sermons about hating other people or be associated with someone like that will start to believe in that .
EXAMPLE: Adolf hitler, kkk, black panthers, no one challenges him or really goes after him because he is black!
If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck its a DUCK. WAKE UP AMERICA !!!
