The goal of this essay is to persuade my audience to think about how their vote will affect the survival of democracy and the future of our country. I will list facts and opinions about why I believe Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama are not good choices as leaders of our country. There are many problems in our country, to begin to solve them the first step would be not to vote for any of these candidates in the 2008 elections. Hillary Rodham Clinton In recent speeches, Hillary Clinton has declared herself against abortion and in favor of the death penalty, but his voting record proves otherwise. In her response to a 1998 poll, Clinton said that “abortions should be legally available.” It received a 100% rating from the Planned Parenthood Council. Clinton lied in her recent campaign speeches about these two topics to try to win the vote of "middle" Republicans. These facts are easily accessible to anyone who wants to know them, so before you go believing everything anyone says, you might want to check, I don't think we need a hypocrite running our country. Clinton is very concerned about globalization. heating. Supports the production and use of ethanol. You're right, cheaper, cleaner fuel would be nice, but this ethanol is made from corn. Clinton and others may not realize it now, but if we continue to use all the corn for fuel, we will have a food shortage. Corn is a vital food for animals in the feed market. Farmers who raise animals are starting to not be able to afford the skyrocketing price of corn, so they are killing their supplies. If these prices continue to rise and farmers continue not to pay, there will be shortages of meat, milk and corn in our country. There are already people starving in Mexico because their main food source is corn, which has been used as fuel. We should respect our Earth, God gave it to us to use and take care of. To some extent, when it comes to polluting the atmosphere or eating, we should concern ourselves with food. Another concern of Clinton's is global warming. He wants a law that says it is illegal to drive any car in the United States.
