I don't have time to put this all down today------Watson has done so much for humanity with his work on DNA. The loop hole is in how funding of earmarks is done. These earmarks get attached to major bills to get the earmarks passed and sometimes to prevent the main piece of legislation from passing. Think Congress needs a new way of doing earmarks. If Watson's Lab were in "my hometown" and given the beneficial scientific research that he has done I would want some funding if the public stock market could not fund it. If Watson's Lab were in "your hometown" I would also want a way of funding if the public stock market could not fund it. The unfortunate part of this is that a Scientist who did "work "on such a valuable piece of research is now being treated like scum for his opinions. "Hillary's problem is that she advocates one thing and does the opposite of what she says-------this does not instill confidence or trust-------in other words she is duplicitious." This woman, moi, is voting No To Hilliary. mj
