It is nice to see that the people of Nevada picked the person who has a proven record of RESULTS and has the best WORK ETHIC of all the candidates. It is great to see that hard work and experience does count in this nation. Not just talk... Congrats goes to Hillary.

If it is possible for one moment to take gender and race out of the voters minds and just look at the candidates ability to address the issues that are upon America and the world.

Issues like the economy, Iraq war, Health Care, Environment and so on.

Edwards voted for Yucca Mountain to be used as a radioactive waste site not once, but twice. Obama could have tried to turn down Illinois' support of Yucca Mountain, but said nothing and let his state approve the project. Hillary has consistently been against this project.
The Iraq war, Hillary and Edwards both approved the authorization of the Iraq war, which at the time we had just gone through 9-11 and we were told by the Bush Administration that Saddam potentially had access to nuclear weapons. In hind sight, what if the Bush Administration was this time actually right. Not taking action would have been lethal. Their vote was justified. Obama says he has always been against the war. What would he have done, waited until they dropped bombs on America before reacting. Is that what America wants for a President? Although Obama says he has been against the war, why has he voted to support it each time being a U.S. Senator? A little hypocritical.

Hillary started the initiative in getting Universal Health Care back in the early 90's. She saw a need out there way back then. Instead of someone trying to improve upon what she initiated and take care of the American people, the people in Washington just criticized it and we got no where. It did not hurt them, they have health insurance, but their actions costs many American lives by lack of action. A decade later there is still not Universal Health Care (way to go Washington) and suddenly it becomes an issue of the other two candidates (Obama and Edwards). Hillary has a new and revised health care plan that covers all Americans. Her opponents do not. Her efforts in getting health care for all Americans never ended.

Every moment of ones life is an experience. Whether one was a First Lady, a Mother, a Father, or a Senator. One cannot discount any of it. How many Mothers not only work full time jobs but also manage their own personal families. Everything we do makes us who we are today. Hillary who had to go through the embarrassment of an unfaithful husband, yet managed to pull the family together. Our divorce rate is so high. I commend her on keeping the family together.

It does not matter, what your color or ethnic background is. People are people. We all have our struggles.

Hillary gets criticized by Edwards because she displayed a few seconds of emotion. Then she gets criticized for showing no emotion at all. If she says anything factual about Obama it becomes a race issue.

I salute the Las Vegas Sun for carefully looking at the candidates voting records, accomplishments and experiences in life. Thanks for endorsing the best PERSON for the job - HILLARY CLINTON.

What I found to be most interesting about the debate is the knowledge of the candidates. While Hillary spoke with great knowlege about the topics and questions asked upon her, Obama seemed to talk around topics as if to try to hide his lack of knowledge of topics discussed. Obama seemed to just keep talking and taking up time without substance. There is no doubt in my mind after watching this debate that Hillary is the best person for the presidency. America needs someone that actually knows the issues that greatly affect our nation today. She does not have to go through the next four years learning the debt of these issues as obviously demonstrated in the debate last night.
