Obama erred

I am very disappointed Sen. Barack Obama did not choose Sen. Hillary Clinton as his running mate.

She was the most qualified and experienced. I really wanted to see her in the White House and Barack as her vice president. She ran neck and neck with him, and over half the American people wanted her to be president.

He should have chosen Hilary. That was a total disservice to the American people by Obama not choosing her as his running mate.

Did he even consider her? Is it because she is a woman? I was hoping she would break the "boys club" in the White House but that won't happen now.

Joe Biden didn't even run for president. I just don't understand why Obama didn't at least chose some one that was running for president in the primary.

He should have chosen Hillary, which would have guaranteed him to win. I was so mad at Obama for not choosing her I even considered not voting at all.

John McCain is old and clueless and replication of George Bush. I will vote for Obama because I don't want to see four more years of Bush running our country into the ground.
