Write in Hillary Clinton for President

To:  American voters

We, the American people, find the choices offered us in the November 2008 election -- the inexperienced, deceptive Barack Obama and the conservative flip-flopper John McCain -- to be unpalatable. We cannot in good conscience vote for either of these candidates. As such, we hereby pledge to write in Hillary Clinton for President when we vote.

Additionally, our vote is a stance against the biased and sexist way the primary season proceeded. Both the media and the DNC encouraged and permitted sexism and disenfranchisement. No one stood up and spoke out when Hillary Clinton was subjected to sexist insults, or when her innocuous statements were twisted to mean things they did not. No one stood up and spoke out when, by insulting Hillary Clinton, every assertive, confident woman in America and the world was insulted too. No one stood up and spoke out when Barack Obama’s missteps and misjudgments were ignored, allowed to slide. The media and the DNC cast aside our protests when Florida and Michigan were disenfranchised, and later that same DNC was all too happy to give some of Clinton’s won delegates in Michigan to Obama, and in fact gave votes likely intended for Edwards to him as well. Such behavior was once considered unthinkable for Democrats, but this year has become par for the course for them.

Furthermore, we will not accept Senator Clinton in any other position. For her to serve under Obama in any way – as vice president, a cabinet member, etc. – would be demeaning and insulting. Such an experienced, deserving person should never serve under an inexperienced person who bullied his way to the top every step of the way. We ask that Senator Clinton refuse any offers of such a role, and affirm that we will not vote for Obama no matter what position he offers Clinton.

Therefore, by voting for Hillary Clinton in November we protest the DNC and the media’s forcing of Obama on us as well as their mistreatment of Clinton. Both sources have made evident their disrespect for women, and we will not stand idly by and accept it. In November, we will vote for the only candidate in whom we believe, the only candidate who is the kind of person we need as President – Hillary Clinton.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
