I am having a hard time keeping this civil, but I will, although you deserve no degree of civility. It is exactly due to people like you, that the animals get nowhere. I have fought for animal rights for over 40 years. I was a founding member of PETA. I am a colleague of Jeremy Betham and Peter Singer. I was the first person ever brought in front of a grand jury for animal rights. President Clinton was not perfect, but he is the only president in US history to ask all the major animal groups in the country including PETA, to endorse someone to be appointed to his administration and they chose me. Hillary Clinton has the highest record of anyone in Congress--100% pro-animal on her voting record. I am a friend of Dennis Kucinich and work on Meat Out with him every year. I wish Hillary was perfect and she is not. However Hillary was the first candidate for several days to speak about the meat recall and has worked tirelessly on the NO Downers issue. When she spoke about the meat recall, she did not just mention humans, she mentioned the abuse of the animals and their welfare. Do I wish she was totally vegan and an abolitionist like me? Sure. But she is all we have now. Obama has a horrid history with his votes on animals, and has never owned an animal. Hillary wrote a wonderful book about Socks, and your information about Socks is totally inaccurate. You are no friend of the animals nor of humans. And this thread is really very old news to Hillary's campaign. Are you so ignorant that you can't even keep up to date, let alone get your facts straight? Thanks to people like you, our movement is looked upon as crazy, and the animal suffer. YES, ANIMAL ARE TORTURED AND KILLED THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE YOU SPREADING INACCURATE INFO. Carol E. McCormick "Kindness and compassion towards all living beings is a mark of a civilized society. Racism, economic deprival, dog fighting and cock fighting, bull fighting and rodeos are all cut from the same defective fabric: violence. Only when we have become nonviolent towards all life will we have learned to live well ourselves."

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 None of our current presidential candidates is vegan or even vegetarian. Therefore, the best we can do is examine her/his overall voting record for animals and a decision based on this.
