Why can’t people just leave Senator Hillary Clinton alone?

Jun 17, 2008 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,
The conversations that are ongoing and that seek to trash former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton are absurd.

Why can’t people leave Senator Clinton alone? The woman has been through enough already in what has been a very dramatic season of primaries and caucuses. It doesn’t matter if she won the popular vote or not.

What is important for persons, especially those backing the Democratic party, is to rally behind the current presumptive nominee Barack Obama and to get him in the White House come January next year.

What is important as well is that Obama reach out to the 18 million persons who voted for Senator Clinton by choosing her to be his ‘number two’ on the ticket. There will be ‘not-so-pleasant’ ramifications if he doesn’t. Still, though, he must not be pressured into choosing Sen. Clinton.

Hillary has crossed boundaries where no woman has crossed before. She fought to the very end with determination and courage and dignity. I know she had wanted to win the nomination but as fate played out she didn’t.

I must make reference to Mr. T. King’s letter in the Kaieteur News of Monday last. How can this gentleman compare Hillary Clinton with the likes of the People’s National Congress/Reform (PNCR)?
Hillary Clinton simply cannot be compared with the PNCR. She has done her people and her country proud.

She has won supporters from all corners of the United States and the globe at large. She means well for America. And she conceded in the end though she may have been a little late in doing what she did – but as we say, better late than never.

She and Barack Obama, I believe, will rock the White House and America if they are given four years to clean up the act of the failed administration of George W. Bush.
