Now; You can't vote

So, after the Culinary Workers Union's endorsement of Barack obama last week, something interesting and to a certain extent predictable has occured. The Nevada State Education Association has filed suit against the state's democratic party. They claim that the installations which will allow the strip's workers to vote more easily (isn't this more democracy?)favor them at their detriment. The party rejected the accusations. The interesting thing here is that the leader of the Teacher's Union publicly endorsed Hillary Clinton. Hey, it's just a coincidence.

Madeleine Albright (surprinsingly to me) has undertaken to delineate in 10 points what the next president should do. I appreciated a couple of those advices. Especially, when she urges the next prez to distance himself from the notion of "Islamic terrorism" since, according to her, Islam does not condone terrorism. She also mentions the shame that is Guantanamo and reminds the president to bear in mind his own Humanity and thus the possibility to make mistakes. Could have been useful to Bush- I think.
Well, read it for yourself.
