United States Senate: Howie Hawkins

Yes, assuring the Democrats gain a majority in the House and the Senate is imperative in order to ensure that the Bush administration’s irresponsible policies are kept in check. However, realistically, we know Clinton is not in danger of losing; the only question now is by how great a percentage she will win. What is not clear is how much difference Clinton will make on issues like the war in Iraq, especially since she has yet to say she regrets her vote for the war or whether she thinks we should still be in Iraq. Clinton has deftly avoided any substance in her campaign, riding a wave of celebrity back into her current office and possibly into the White House. But one candidate is talking about the issues that are important. One candidate wants to end the botched war in Iraq and ensure Americans have access to health care, and that candidate is Howie Hawkins. |
