Why Chronically Ill Should Vote For Obama

by Rena Sherwood

Obama 08, baby!Thankfully, the fractured health care system in America has been made one of the top issues of the 2008 Presidential campaign. Although migraineurs and those with chronic headaches may feel helpless due to the whims of their condition, there’s no need to make it any worse than you have to. If you are registered and give a darn about lowering your health care bills, vote for Obama.

I’ll make this real simple for you: If you make less than $250,000 a year and you vote for McCain — you are insane.

Won’t Obama Raise Taxes?

John McCain has made a big issue of Obama raising taxes. However, what McCain doesn’t tell you is that Obama will raise taxes on rich people and big businesses. Since the Republicans are the political party for rich people, of course they are concerned. Just look at how the health care system in America has crumbled since 1980, when Ronald Reagan unleashed the disastrous Reaganomics on the country, making everything for sale to the highest bidder. The Rebublicans’ answer to rising health care costs is “Tough. Get another job and make more money to pay your bills, you slacker.”

More Evidence Obama Will Help Your Health

Obama is for several things that can greatly impact youir health. First off, he has a much better economic plan than McCain. How can I say this? Because I will save about $3,000 with Obama’s plan and will wind up with nothing from McCain’s plan. I can’t be the only one.

Secondly, Obama is for alternative energy. That means less pollutants to give you a headache and more of a chance to not face an environmental Armageddon that will happen if steps aren’t taken now to halt climate change.

He’s also for a woman’s right to choose. This places womens’ health first and does not sacrifice the lives and health of women or girls on the altar of the Great Unborn just to have live babies to grow up to be dead soldiers. (Yes — I stole that line from George Carlin).

But Vote, Please

Even if you disagree with me entirely (and you have every right to do so), please go out and vote if you are registered. And don’t waste your vote by voting for a third party that doesn’t have any chance of winning. Like it or not, America in 2008 is run by two and only two political parties. Wasting your vote on a third party proves nothing except that you wasted your vote. At least make your vote count.

Besides, if you vote, I’ll shut up.
