An endorsement for Hillary that really touched me - Berry Brazelton, pediatrician
Berry Brazelton is a marvelous pediatrician / Harvard faculty member who writes beautifully about children's emotional development. On this page of Hillary's website there is a video in which Brazelton says that Hillary came to his attention when she was working at the Yale New Haven Child Study Center with poor children and he goes on to say that Hillary Clinton is his hero. Wow.

When we strengthen families, we ultimately strengthen the community. Our goal is that parents everywhere work with supportive providers, feel confident in their parenting role, and form strong, resilient attachments with their children. To help achieve this, providers must be responsive to parents, knowledgeable about child development, and eager to see every parent succeed. - T. Berry Brazelton, MD, Founder

Brazelton's Touchpoints Center http://www.touchpoints.org/

I am an Obama supporter and I very much hope he wins.

And I think that Hillary is worthy of respect and admiration.

And I believe that we need to start healing this party as a first step to healing this nation and repairing our world.

Hatred never ceases by hatred, but by love alone is it healed. This is an ancient and eternal law.

Do NOT reply to this thread with any criticism of Clinton, Obama, or their supporters. Peace.

17. Has he written anything on the emotional state of Iraq's children?
You know, those affected by the war that Hillary voted for?

(No this issue will not just go away)
