Why did you vote for Obama or not...?

Yes I agree with all of your points but still..............
As a woman, as a mother I cannot image wanting to bring a child into this world to watch it starve to death. It is beyond my understanding. Perhaps I expect to much from these people and their leaders.

But without access to birth control or education, you wouldn't, as a woman, have a choice about whether or not to bring a child into this world.

I wish we, as human beings, could manage to do more to help people, so that things like preventable disease, malnutrition, and poverty no longer existed.

Feel as you like about Bill Gates, but at least his foundation - The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation - is putting money into some very worthwhile international causes. It is sad that the need exists, but good that they are trying.
