LT. GOV. BILL HALTER’S SEPARATE RELEASE
LITTLE ROCK (June 7, 2008 ) - I congratulate Senator Hillary Clinton for
running a determined campaign and advancing public policies that are
critical to the future of our country. Her career in public service has
improved the lives of millions of Americans.I wholeheartedly endorse Senator Barack Obama for President of the
United States and encourage others to do the same. Senator Obama brings
the changes in direction that our country needs, new energy, and new
voices to this election.The Democratic nomination contest has energized Americans in every state
and brought record numbers of new participants to the polls. Now is
the time to unite the Democratic Party around our nominee.
I seriously doubt that the majority of Arkansans will support such an elitist Liberal like Barack Hussein Obama…As someone who has a brother and an uncle in Iraq fighting to defend our freedom’s, it ticks me off that Obama thinks he can just not wear the American flag lapel pin…The pin is symbolic…Unity, Patriotism, Freedom, and so much more…Ask yourself if you want your family members in Iraq under the command of a guy making fashion statements about a lapel pin he won’t wear or a true American hero who spent 5 years in a POW camp…As a matter of politics, I would caution this state’s Democrat politicians from getting to close to Barack Hussein Obama….
