Do You Feel Invisible to Your Government?
Target: Hillary Clinton for President CampaignSponsored by: Hillary Clinton for President
For six long years, America's working families have been invisible to our president.
Energy, health care, and education costs are rising while wages and incomes lag. Americans are working harder than ever, but keep falling further and further behind.
It's like middle class and hard working families don't even exist to this Administration.
If you're one of the nearly 90,000 people still living in trailers after Hurricane Katrina - you're invisible.
If you're a soldier back from Iraq fighting to get the treatment you need in crumbling facilities at Walter Reed - you're invisible.
If you're a parent who can't afford childcare or who struggles to get by on the minimum wage - while the wealthy get tax cuts -- you're invisible too.
Well, you're not invisible to the rest of America. When Hillary is in the White House, you will no longer be invisible to the President of the United States.
We want to hear your story. Share with our hillaryclinton.com community how you have felt invisible under the Bush Administration. Share with us your dreams for the future. And join the Hillary Clinton campaign to help make our way to the White House so we can change our country's direction and create a better future for everyone.

we aren't invisible. We are the same sea of revenue to the govt as we are to big business and other interests groups. The greed of this govt, coupled with big business has killed its host off. The line between business and govt is no longer visible. We are just the prey.

What if medicaid were open to working families for $15 a month. What if immigrants could pay $2,000 to get: a physical, background check, educational level check, and skills check, be issued a card with conditions for one year, a "probation/socialworker" officer (better job than I.N.S.) right at the border, wherever they come from? And if in one year they don't want to be citizens, they leave and start again. $2,000 to pay for tests etc.

For some time, I've felt confused, if not a bit angry. Perhaps, my voice didn't want to be heard from some people. No one wants to be forgotton or neglected. Especially if they have an important message to share with others. When anyone is considered "invisible", I strongly feel that major problems will occur. A government "Of the people... by the People... and for the people" should be as visable as possible. **Not Invisible** to the naked eye!

BUSH IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE A JOKE~~ My dreams for the 2008 election Hmmm Why not start on wages... You cannot support a family on $10-$12/hour... If your even making that much. I would honestly like to see the Federal minimum wage increased to $15/hour and tax breaks for households who make less than $50K/annually :O) Then start Universal health care... It is provided in most developed countries, but not in the US come one now get with it~~

Bush is no better than those in the Nuremberg War trials, he should be tried for war crimes, hung and/or shot, him and his entire administration

George Bush is a facist Nazi...who sees the middle class as slaves. He should be de-throned and prosecuted, found guilty of treason to the American people and the Consitution and hanged!
