Caucus For Hillary

This country is facing unprecedented challenges.  It needs a leader who offers real solutions and has a proven record of bringing about the right kind of change.  Sen. Hillary Clinton is that candidate.  

She has the experience.  She has the strength.  She has the perseverance.  She will be ready, from day one, to take on the daunting role of President and Commander-In-Chief. 

This election is not about the past, it's about the future.  When dealing with the debacle that is the Iraq War, we must be as careful getting out as we were careless getting in.  Hillary has the military knowledge, having served over 6 years on the Armed Services Committee, to bring this war to a safe, responsible end.  Hillary fought for universal healthcare before it was even popular and never backed down from that position.  Hillary is also a proven strong candidate against the Republicans.  No one thought she would be able to win over the many rural conservatives and, for that matter, moderate Republicans in upstate New York when she ran for the Senate.  Not only did she win them over by a large margin in 2000, but in 2006, she received even more support from GOP voters and Independents. She carried 58 out of New York's 62 counties, many of which went to George Bush in the '04 election.  Clinton has fought for the progressive cause for 35 years and will fight for it everyday in this campaign and every day that she is in the White House.  

Please, if you have the option, caucus for Hillary.
