If Hollywood can do it, if musicians can do it, if talk show hosts can do it, the common ordinary citizen has equal rights to do it! Therefore I am ENDORSING HILLARY CLINTON for nomination to become the next President of the United States! I do this as a health care professional, a grandfather concerned about the earth’s care that our descendents will live on, a father of three beautiful children, young adults now that need to experience a healthy president in their lifetime, a Vietnam Veteran opposed to our waste of human lives and tax dollars in Iraq, and finally as a common ordinary citizen of the United States.

Why am I endorsing Hillary Clinton?

1. Nobody has worked harder or longer to improve health care than Hillary Clinton. … HEALTH CARE http://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/healthcare/

2. She has worked to advance a balanced energy policy that will increase our energy independence, create jobs, and provide cleaner, more reliable energy.She supports policies to diversify our energy supplies by investing in renewable energy technologies such as wind and solar, developing advanced energy technologies such as clean coal and hydrogen fuel cells, and promoting environmentally responsible recovery of oil and gas resources. She cares about the earth! http://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/healthcare/

3. Inclusive of her concerns are:a.. Health Care Costs Agenda

a.. Health Care Quality Agenda

a.. Long-Term Care Agenda

a.. Long-Term Care Insurance Market

a.. Plan to Fight Cancer

a.. Plan to Fight Autism

a.. HIV/AIDS

a.. Agenda for Reproductive Health Care

a.. Standing for Seniors (PDF)

a.. Hillary’s Agenda to Eradicate Breast Cancer (PDF) a.. Hillary’s Pledge on Stem Cell Research HILLARY ISN’T JUST A TALKER LIKE OBAMA, SHE’S A WALKER, A DOER, AN ACCOMPLISHED ACHIEVER.

4. On Social Security Hillary says: Social Security has been our nation’s most successful domestic program, protecting millions of Americans from poverty due to old age, death and disability. Since its inception in 1935, Social Security has guaranteed a life-long, inflation-protected defined benefit that families can rely on. The task before us now is to ensure the long-term health of the Social Security program. I think it is essential that the Administration and Congress take the necessary steps to secure the solvency of this important program for current and future retirees.

5. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, Hillary and Bill Clinton have been to hell and back in their marriage and it has survived. Hillary’s fortitude, intolerance, commitment and determination to work through their public humiliation are qualities I want our president to have when working with International Politics and the disdain and humiliation Americans have suffered at home and abroad during the Bush administration. She knows how to deal with betrayal, extreme conflict and conciliation. I believe she will regain our respect throughout the world.http://capwiz.com/aamft/bio/?id=10902

6. Hillary Clinton has a plan for unemployment, education and social welfare. She’s experienced and literally knows her way around the White House, Congress and the Senate.http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=3632

7. Hillary is not pressing American Voters for the “white” votes! She is pressing for everyone’s vote, white, yellow, red, black, she is not turning this into a racial nor gender candidacy for the Presidency. Obama is directly pressing for Afro American votes! The turning point for me was when John Lewis, who I knew when I was a police officer in Atlanta, betrayed the years of civil rights involvement of the Clintons and endorsed Obama.He was a close friend and supporter of the Clintons.

8. I believe in Hillary Clinton’s Modern Progressive vision of shared prosperity. Hillary has a plan for America to restore a strong middle class in the face of globalization and the Bush administration’s concerns for the special interests. http://www.hillaryclinton.com/feature/inequality/9. I like her dedication and stand on poverty and the well being of children caught in unlivable socio-economic environments. She says:“I’ve been working to better the lives of children for 35 years, and the future of America’s children will be a centerpiece of my presidency. The issue is personal for me. My own mother struggled through a childhood of neglect to give her own children the opportunities she never had. My mother taught me at a young age that all children deserve the chance to live up to their God-given potential and make the most of their lives.”

10. Finally, in my opinion, and no matter how you feel about Bill Clinton’s private mistakes (pun intended), he was a good president! I like the idea of getting two for one, not only having a vice president in the White House with Hillary, but having an ex-president in the White House is comforting to me. Will Bill Clinton influence and assist in major decisions? Yes. Will he run the White House? No. Hillary has put Bill in his place, she’s equalized his power and she will be The PRESIDENT. TWO FOR ONE!There you have it! I only wish that I had the influence of an Oprah endorsement or John Lewis endorsement. I don’t! But I do have my vote and this endorsement to encourage everyone that I know to vote for Hillary Clinton. She is the most qualified, experienced candidate that we have before us.

Sincerely,

Jerry Brinegar

Thank you, Jerry! I hope this will help others make their decision should Hillary become the nom for the Democrats. I think it answered my questions. I know if I have the choice this fall, I won’t have issue with voting ‘Clinton’.
