Clinton Says Choice Is a Dilemma Feb 10 03:05 PM US/Eastern By MATTHEW BARAKAT Associated Press Writer BOWIE, Md. (AP) - Former President Clinton said Sunday that having to choose between his wife and Sen. Barack Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination is a God-given dilemma.
Clinton, who visited black churches in the District of Columbia and Maryland, said he understands black people's desire to finally elect one of their own as president. But he urged them also to consider Hillary Rodham Clinton' experience and policy initiatives in housing, education, health care and her support voting representation in Congress for residents of the nation's capital.
He said New York Sen. Clinton is "the best qualified person to be president I've had an opportunity to vote for."
"All my life I have wanted to vote for a woman for president," Clinton told 800 parishioners at the Temple of Praise congregation in Washington. "All my life I have wanted to vote for an African-American for president. ... I wonder why God gave us this dilemma."
At a later service at Greater Mount Nebo AME Church in Bowie, Clinton asked several hundred parishioners to think and pray about their choice.
Hillary Clinton will face off Tuesday against Illinois Sen. Obama in primaries in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia.
Asked outside church what he thought of Saturday's results, in which Obama swept contests in Louisiana, Nebraska, Washington state and the Virgin Islands, Clinton seemed unfazed.
"I lost Washington state in 1992 also," he said.

It’s no dilemma, it is a choice between the anti-christ (Hildery) and false prophet (Obama Bin Laden). You are damned with either choice.
Gee, for a minute their I thought they were changing their ‘pro-choice’ views. No such luck.
No policy issues to decide the race on, just the persons race and the persons gender. Gee.
Let them put up a minority woman next time.
There has been nothing stopping them from doing so all these years. Why Bill himself could have stepped down and appointed a black female president when his zipper got stuck.
Bill Clinton is my dilemma. I am Pro-Life but know this country would be better off if he had been aborted.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
