California just made a huge positive step in Healthcare

Governor Jerry Brown made California the fourth state in the US on Monday to allow physician assisted dying. Yes, only the fourth, and it's disappointing that the numbers (or the lack of) overshadow the real achievement. Everyone has the right to live, and everyone should have the right to die. Of course life is sacred, but the opponents of this law must not seriously think that California's true intentions are to have a genocide. They simply just want to help those people who have no hope of a cure, and are suffering. That's it, there is no story here, Everyone is allowed to make their decisions about their life and body. If you can go and get an abortion from a professional, you should also be able to go to your doctor to die. They are there to help you and to lessen your pain. In any way possible. Of course we support that background checks must take place, and several doctors (including psychologists) should sign off before you are allowed to die. You sho...

Bill Clinton returns to the trail

Former President Bill Clinton began campaigning for Hillary Clinton this week. With less than four weeks before the first votes are cast, many campaigns are shaking up their tactics. Hillary is now enlisting Bill, Trump has ads and Christie is heading to Iowa. But will these new methods work? Just like Joe Biden though, Bill Clinton is known for his gaffes.

This is a change of direction for the campaign as they hope to solidify their lead in Iowa, and fight back in New Hampshire. Bill Clinton though seems to be tightly monitored and censored t...

Hillary has got it all

It seems like that at least. She learnt a lot from her mistakes in 2008, and she is now avoiding them big time. Former Secretary of State/Senator/First Lady Hillary Clinton has held her first major campaign event in New York City, 2 months after announcing her much anticipated second run to  be the key holder of the White House. So far she has been lying low, and keeping to herself and to a few voters in the 4 states that will vote first. She only made townhouse visits and rarely gave interviews. She is controlling her representation in the media. But now as the Republican race is heating up and the Democratic field is slowly expanding, she has switched into top gear. Hillary enlisted pop stars Katy Perry and Mariah Carey, and recently joined Instagram, Snapchat and released her own Spotify playlist. She is campaigning to her millions of followers on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube in both English and Spanish, and sends out text-messages to those who signed up. Her Social M...
