DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE

The Democrats are a perfect example of political hypocrisy in the United States. They have spoken at length about the need to unite America but haven't been able to be united themselves. The Hillary versus Barack Obama battle is an example of this. Hillary Clinton went out of her way to find dirt on Obama and when she couldn't, she just adopted the Republican tactics of creating dirt on Obama and scaring people with it.

In the endeavor to win the nomination, Hillary kept on hurting Obama and some of the wounds may not heal in time for the big battle with McCain. She and her camp spent time and resources to slander Obama. While John McCain secured the nomination and went on to campaign for the white house, these two battled it out and just made each other weaker.

The blame doesn't lie with Hillary alone. Everyone knows how power hungry and ruthless the Clintons can be. But what about the Democrats? They never once ventured to stop Hillary and ask her to play fair. They knew that the party was being hurt and that a spot in the White House is at risk, yet they stepped aside while Hillary tried to undemocratically secure the nomination.

Two months before Obama secured the nomination, the super delegates could have cast their votes and ended this. Instead, they chose to sit back.

What makes these "leaders" qualified to run the country if they can't even step in and do the right thing for their party? Why wait? The time to do the right it is ALWAYS right now.

So my question is, when it comes to doing the right thing for the country, will they step up or will they step aside?
