64. I haven't seen anyone talk about her support for criminalizing flag burning
Edited on Sun Dec-03-06 04:02 PM by Heaven and Earth
To me, her support for that is a fundamental misunderstanding of core American values. If she truly believes in that, then she is diminished as a standardbearer for our party in my eyes. If she doesn't actually believe that, then the potential for me to trust her is diminished. Which is it?

I also question the value to America of having the presidency pass back and forth between two families.

I might still potentially support her (I haven't chosen a candidate yet), but someone would have to convince me, without using electability arguments, that her vision and ability are better than the two flaws I have named.

That having been said, I will be voting for the Democrat in the general election.
