As the political conventions draw near, it amazes me how women and blacks who call themselves Democrats continue to depend on white men to lead their party.

Are you Democrats waiting for St. Hillary to lead you to the promised land? Is putting this country's honest and hard-working tax-paying citizens through four more years of corporate B.S. worth it to see if or if not Hillary Clinton decides to run for president in 2008?

It is obvious that Bill Clinton still runs the Democratic party. Unfortunately, it is being run into the ground.
