There is a great quote that I think pertains to this, "No other success can compensate for failure in the home." I'm not saying she is failing, but there is no way she can give 100% to both jobs, VP and mother, so if she's elected, we are making it sure that her family doesn't have a mother for the next 4 years...
Again, this is just my opinion, and I am a republican. |
Hi Becky, Obama has young children too. And the relationship between a father and his daughter is a good predictor of their future choice of a spouse, their self esteem, etc... especially during the teen years, which if he was a two termer would affect them. So how does this differ from her life? I'm especially concerned about the father/daughter bond because I lost my father suddenly in my teens and I personally know how much that bond means for your future. Sarah seems to have a pretty tight knit family so I don't see it as big a problem as some do. Just curious on your thoughts. Thanks!
