Obama is sent a very clear message from West Virginian's
Personally the news of Hillary Clinton taking West Virginia is exciting, but honestly the news is not about Hillary, it is about the complete lack of focus on Obama's part. I have read several news articles and most of them have the same undertone; Obama conceded defeat in the Mountain State and was clearly focused elsewhere, meaning Oregon, while campaigning in West Virginia.
Why would he not at least focus on the issues that are important to the people of West Virginia? He knew he lost the state, but does that condone shunning the people and their issues? What kind of President would Obama be if he cherry picks who is important and who is not as far as issues go from state to state? Maybe he did not like the fact that 51 percent of the voters believe Obama shares pastor Rev. Wright's views? Then again 61 percent of West Virginian's also sent a clear message to Obama by stating they would be dissatisfied if Clinton did not become the nominee.
As far as statistics are concerned, I could care less in this particular case. The bottom line here is that Obama, for all intense purposes, practically ignored West Virginia simply because he saw he was going to loose and that REGISTERED voters in the state of West Virginia do NOT want to see him as the Democratic Nominee.
Fine, be a sore looser, but what we have to worry about is if Obama does get the nomination and by some twist of fate becomes the first black President (and MUSLIM President) of the United State, you can bet your bottom dollar West Virginia will certainly be one of the States looked over for just about EVERYTHING, especially if Senator Byrd moves on to greener pastures (let's face the facts here the man is older than dirt). Any federal help, grants and subsidiaries will be severely impacted during the Obama Presidency If he makes it. The only hope we have is if Obama does get the nomination and Hillary runs as the Vice President on the ticket and .... well never mind, that opinion should be best kept to myself but for interesting info regarding this "thought" read here: http://www.tidbitsnews.com/Background_of_Pres_Candidates.cfm.
If Hillary does not get the nomination and refuses to accept the VP position alongside Barack HUSSEIN Obama, then my suggestion would be to ALL loyal democrats – WRITE HILLARY IN and that does not just go for the Voters of West Virginia – that goes for ALL loyal democratic registered voters across the country.
