Okay, I'll admit it... I've been wrong about some of my other Presidential picks...

But I truly feel that Bill Bradley is one of the better choices when looking at the
other guys trying to be the proverbial leader of our country.

Here is what I think about what Mr. Bradley is proposing:

Health Care
It sounds to me as if he wants everyone to have it.  That's fine and dandy with me
because after I get out of college, I'm going to earn enough for my own. What
he wants to do with health care doesn't really effect me now.

Children in Poverty
This whole topic I'm kind of skeptical of.  I know there are some small families
who do not make enough money to make ends meet even if they try, but
from my own experiences, I just see those who have too many children.
I think those people should stop having kids...are they that stupid that they
can't see that their children are suffering?

Mr. Bradley wants to be everyone's friend now because he's running
for president.  So, he wants all children to be taken care of now.  Nice idea,
but I'd like more details of how this would work.

***PROCHOICE***
Prochoice...big reason why I like him.  It's my body, it's my decision.

Taxes
He wants taxes to depend on how much you make. (So the rich pay more
and the poor pay less.)  Currently, I believe this is a fair idea.
Of course, when I get out of school and start making money, I will be totally against
this entirely - I work hard, I should get to keep it.

Social Security
He believes if we sustain good economic growth over a long period of time,
social security will take care of itself.

This seems a little quixotic to me, but an overall nice idea.  I would like
more details.  ( I know I keep saying that and no politician while campaigning
will give details, but a gal can still dream.)

Of course, my overall opinion is if we stopped giving social security money to
people who never contribute to it, we wouldn't have a problem with the finances
in it.  Why give to people who are never going to make a positive
contribution to this world?  If you are offended by this statement, you're the
same person who gets offended with how the government treats Cuban
refugees by spraying them with hoses... GET OUT OF MY PAGE!

Education
He wants to improve education by holding teachers and principals responsible.
He also wants more technology in schools.

Sounds good to me.

What I think of Mr. Bradley:

Mr. Bradley, in my opinion after hearing him speak at Eckerd College, is an
opinionated individual who speaks his mind in most cases.   I think he is
holding out on us with these proposals.

I had a chance to speak with him after the speech he gave and I believe for the
first time in my life, I may have come in contact with a  person who was more
aggressive, competitive, and determined than myself.

Oh...and besides the point that Michael Jordan, Phil Jackson, and a bunch of
other people support him.

And for all those people out there who thought Ronald Reagan, the actor,
was such a good president...
Why not give a professional athlete the shot at it?
