Bill Richardson for President
Categories:

The democratic campaigns are kicking it up for the end of the quarter, and they want my money!
With the election still being 19 months away, I'd been hesitant to fork out any money to any campaigns. I supported Edwards very early in the last election until he was defeated in the primaries. Supporting democratic campigns early on is something I just do these days.
Well, I made my first campaign contribution today. And it wasn't to the Edwards campaign.
Governor Bill Richardson got my money today.
Although Clinton and Obama being the defacto leaders, and Edwards getting a lot of "face time" recently, I don't think any of these candidates are qualified to lead our country. None of them have enough experience, none of them have experience in the administrative branch of the government. I know too many democrats who've already said they won't vote for Hillary, and I think Obama might make a good President.. some day.
But Bill Richardson... he's a governor, and governor's make good presidents (fact, not fiction). Governors WIN presidential elections. Senators do not.
Former UN Ambassador, Secretary of Energy, etc... he might be good for the latino vote too!
