type='text'>Critical Thinkers for Obama</title><content type='html'>I'm still a rotten blogger but the state of the presidential race has gotten me into such a state of disbelief I feel I have to make my feelings known.  After over thirty years on &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sesame Street, &lt;/span&gt;inspiring kids to think, I'm dismayed that the Republican platform sneers at intellectual activity. Palin's solutions to problems are laughably simplistic.  McCain did not think things through when he chose her as his running mate. This sentiment that leaders should be "just like us" and just as uninformed is scary.  We wouldn't want our doctors or lawyers to be uninformed.  We should expect more from our leaders.  I have a terrible feeling that in the end children and education will suffer the most. Please support the Democratic ticket.  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14596176-6520381666743010104?l=soniasays.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://soniasays.blogspot.com/feeds/6520381666743010104/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=14596176&amp;postID=6520381666743010104' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14596176/posts/default/6520381666743010104'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14596176/posts/default/6520381666743010104'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://soniasays.blogspot.com/2008/09/critical-thinkers-for-obama.html' title='Critical Thinkers for Obama'/><author><name>Sonia Manzano</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10445799562523332022</uri><email>soniaapple@aol.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16832637048383825272'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14596176.post-2599034015138288907</id><published>2008-06-01T17:44:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-06-01T18:00:50.740-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Rotten Blogging</title><content type='html'>Okay, I admit it.  I'm a rotten blogger.
