23. I have been very disappointed in Obama's negative
campaign. I do not like all the negative campaigning against Hillary, it bothered me. It so appeared as if Hillary was worse than Bush, according to some. I just got so tired of it. Hillary is not perfect, by no means, but she is so much better than Bush. I will vote for a Democrat against any Republican. Anyone who runs for president has to get millions to run, if not, it is impossible. We need "real" campaign finance reform. All campaign funding should by paid for by tax money, all candidates receiving equal funding. We should also be able to watch "real" debates, not the absurd ones of the past. This could make if possible for a candidate to be able to run of their merits. We have Bush to prove that something needs to change ASAP! Damn, we got a very retarded criminal for president who did not even win an election!
