How Obama would/will (in the fall) do well in WV.
It's too bad the primary is so soon.

If he stresses these universal themes:


It's the "bitter thing" all over again

Number ONE... We all know how hard-pressed many people in WV are..Why is that?

could it be from lack of funding to schools?
could it be from lack of funding to health care? (and public health)
could it be because WV has been sold OUT to private corporations who only want to rape and pillage and blow up the mountains?
could it be because the suffer from a tremendous shortage of hope for a better life?

Number TWO...Why are neighboring states doing "better"?

perhaps there IS something that can be done, IF people pull together and have some federal backing, so they too can emulate their more prosperous neighbors..

Unity is the key.. instead of choosing up sides and fighting each other, joining together and achieving a goal both sides want is the solution..

WV needs what every state needs..

good jobs
SAFE jobs
good schools
decent housing
clean environment
honest government
health care

those things are not FREE, and it's about time WV started getting their share..
