Hillary Clinton is Not the One Wisconsin Wants in the White House

WAUKESHA, Wisconsin, February 14 - Hillary Rodham Clinton is the person whom I wish would win the Democratic bid to run against John McCain for president in 2008. I think she is the one who can compete the best, even more so than Barack Obama can, or ever will be able to. She is the one who has the most experience, has the most knowledge of how things really go on in The White House, and has a better plan for this country. If she does not win, I have predicted that John McCain will most likely be the next president of The United States.

While in Wisconsin, on a trip with some of my fellow College Democrats from The University of Texas at San Antonio, we decided to stop in and support Hillary Clinton at one of her rallies being held in Waukesha; the exact location was actually the Waukesha County Exposition Center.

The Rally And Speech That Blew My Mind

My experience at this rally that has given me hope for this country in a very big way, only if Hillary does win though. It has also disappointed me in many others; I have now learned that not everyone is like me, and that not everyone wishes to have the same things I do for this country that I call home.

During the actual rally speech, I could tell that Hillary Clinton had gotten across to many of the people there. I mean how could she not? She literally went over her plans and goals for the country, for our troops, and even explained how she would handle some of the major issues facing the human race, such as global warming; and what she would do to attempt to conquer diseases like AIDS. Throughout all of this, my fellow College Democrats were cheering insanely, the way I had not seen them do; even though some of them were actually Barack Obama fans.

What The People Of Wisconsin Were Saying About Hillary

Before going inside of the Waukesha County Exposition Center, I heard, not from my peers, but from other people that no matter what Hillary Clinton said, that they would not be voting for her. Some of them said they were not going to vote for Hillary because she was a woman, and no matter how experienced she was, and how much education she had, she was still a woman, and they wouldn't like to have someone with an extremely emotional personality at the head of their country. Some also said that even though they liked Hillary Clinton a lot, they were just really excited of what having a black president would be like for the United States, thus they were going to vote for Obama no matter what.

After Hillary Clinton's speech was done, I concluded that she had not won the battle against Obama in Wisconsin. Although there were a lot of fans there for her and many people who supported her nomination, there just wasn't enough; more people were interested in what Barack Obama had to say and what he wanted to do. It was very disappointing for me, because as I said before, I never realized that people would be making their decisions in certain ways. None-the-less though, I am very happy with my day in Wisconsin, hearing Hillary Clinton speak, and with the cheering and atmosphere that her supporters showed her, before the rally started, during, and even afterwards when everyone was lining up to get autographs, photos, and even just handshakes.
