Controlling Spin Students Endorse the Democratic Candidates for President

As a group of young, educated voters, we want to encourage the American people to vote for a change from the status quo, to vote Democratic in the 2008 election. The Democratic candidates in this year’s Presidential election are perhaps two of the best we have seen in a long time.

Senator Hillary Clinton is a strong woman who believes in the American people. She is reestablishing trust in the federal government for both Americans and international societies as well. Her plans for accessible and affordable healthcare are sure to be a vast improvement from the way things currently are. She seeks to increase the number of those who matriculate as well as decrease the number of high school students who drop out, by administering programs that will increase tuition aid while promoting community service. Her expretise extends not only to domestic affairs, but also to foreign affairs. Clinton has continued to raise questions about the War in Iraq, and is determined to bring our troops home sooner rather later. For all these reasons, one should undoubtedly see the differences between her and Senator John McCain, the GOP candidate. However, there are not many differences to be found between Senator Barack Obama and Senator Clinton.

Senator Obama is just as committed to change as Clinton is. He has continued to fight for our educational system, not only at the college level but beginning with our children. He will also fight for a better healthcare system. Senator Obama is an articulate and charismatic individual who sees what America can be and where the American people can go. He also is determined to bring our troops home and end this war, a war that has put a huge strain on our failing economy.

By now it is evident that our government needs reformation, and only a Democratic President will be able to bring the salvation that America needs. The Democratic candidates represent the change that we need. They are dealing with issues that are most pertinent and important to us. We are not asking you to vote Democratic for the sake of the Democratic Party, but because either Senator Obama or Senator Clinton will bring the change that this country needs in 2008. For these reasons and many more, we endorse the Democratic Party and their candidates.
