A Clear Vision and a Clear Choice for Achievement Ladder Enthusiasts

As the 2008 Presidential Primaries are counted into history, a clear choice and a clear decision is quite evident for the responsible American voter and constituent. Where do the Political Parties and the presumptive nominees Stand on Life?

The Democratic Party nominee supports the Supreme Court decision that allows abortion for any reason and co-sponsored the "Freedom of Choice Act," which advocates for reproductive choice and preserves women's rights under Roe v. Wade as a priority. In addition, the DP nominee supports a vote against the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and supports any action to restrict further measures by state legislatures to deny a women's right to choose, and supports Supreme Court justices that will uphold Roe v. Wade in any confirmation hearings.

The Democratic Party supports voting for legislation to allow federal taxpayer dollars to go to organizations that perform or promote abortion. In addition, the presumptive nominee for President voted to kill a bill that would have required an abortionist to notify at least one parent before performing an abortion on a minor girl from another state.

The Democratic Party supports and has voted in favor of funding embryonic stem cell research. The presumptive nominee stated, "Embryonic stem cells can be obtained from a number of sources including in vitro fertilization...We (whoever we is) should expand and accelerate research using these embryos...."

The presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party has co-sponsored a bill (S.1520) in 2005 that would allow the cloning of human embryos for research but prohibit their survival.

The Republican Party presumptive nominee has consistently opposed over many years in the Senate the Supreme Court decision that allows abortion for any reason. The nominee indicated "we would be better off by having Roe v. Wade return to the states...I don't believe the ...Court should be legislating in the way that they did on Roe v. Wade."

The Republican Party presumptive nominee voted for the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. Quoting the nominee, "Today's Supreme Court ruling in Gonzales v. Carhart is a victory for those who cherish the sanctity of human life."

The Republican Party presumptive nominee voted against legislation that would have allowed federal taxpayer dollars to go to organizations that perform or promote abortion. The presumptive nominee voted to support a bill that would have required an abortionist to notify at least one parent before performing an abortion on a minor girl from another state.

The Republican Party presumptive nominee voted in favor of funding embryonic stem cell research. The nominee says, "I believe that skin stem cell research has every potential very soon of making that discussion (embryonic stem cell research) academic." In addition, the nominee opposes the intentional creation of human embryos for research purposes.

Yes, the Clear Choice has been made. Are we willing to continue for another 35 years the infamy that 1973 brought with Roe v. Wade or are we willing to make REAL CHANGE by accepting the fact that HUMAN LIFE IS A CONTINUUM FROM NATURAL CONCEPTION TO NATURAL DEATH. With all of the medical technology that we have discovered since 1973, we need to make a CIVIL RIGHTS COMMITMENT to the dignity of human life at all stages of development. Will the voters and constituents MAKE A PRO-LIFE CHOICE or a PRO-ABORTION CHOICE? Only time will tell whether our blessed United States of America will uphold the original intent of the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. In every elective abortion, a baby dies! Vote as though your life and the lives of innocent human beings depended on it!
