Hi readers,
Relates to presidential champaign within Democratic party, Hillary and Obama are trying hard to get more and more voters. Although Obama won in more states than Hillary, the former First Lady won in big states like New York, California, Texas.
Both of them neither achieve theshold of 2,025 to win nomination. People said it will be decided during Democratic Convention in Sept 2008.
During election, seems Obama got more "good news and supports" rather than his rival. In my thought, when he lost in a certain state, press did not blow exaggerate news for him. However, when Obama hit Hillary, many media put her as a loser and cornered her.
I am not an American and have a vote right either. I am just an observer and read the Clintons' article a lot. I think sometimes Hillary got many opponents since she is a woman, feminist and outstanding. She even has similarity with pop icon Madonna. For Americans, Hillary and Madonna's stands is "either too strong" or "too independent" as woman :)
In some parts, when people do not like her husband, they easily relate it to Hillary as well.
I try to shorten my article. Hillary is a symbol of women's struggle to get "equality" with men, in politics. She is the first first lady to run a presidential nomination. Perhaps, it is not common yet for American's mindset.
When Indonesian political situation is many steps behind from them, we have a better preposition - at least we ever had a woman President, Ibu Megawati.
