Teen pregnancy is a huge problem in the USA, more than in just about any other "1st world" country. The fact that Americans, and especially the Repuclican party, are so prudish contributes to this problem. Americans should talk openly with their children about *** and the potential problems that can arise if one is not responsible in having ***. I agree with Obama, but it underscores a more general American problem which the GOP has little to say about. For them, everything is just fine the way it is, more or less.

Barack is right, as usual. Gossiping about Sarah''s daughter''s circumstances has no place in politics per se. However, I do feel that Sarah Palin has a heck of a lot going on in her personal life right now with a special needs infant and a pregnant minor daughter who need her. I think the public has a right to question whether this woman is going to be able to dedicate herself to the Veep position. It was questioned of John Edwards when the public learned of Elizabeth''s cancer, and at the time, it seemed like a reasonable question, so I do question the wisdom of selecting a Veep with a considerable amount of personal needs at the present.

Thank you Senator Obama, for consistently taking the high road. I trust you to lead our country back to it''s place in the world.
