Claryifying The Point Of My Last Article Regarding Barack Obama….

It seems based upon e-mail, etc. from the previous article I was not clear enough on my question regarding Barack Obama’s support of motorcyclists and their rights so here is my point in more specific terms:

I would like to know his position regarding motorcycle related legislation and programs.

I would like to know his position on things like HR 6809 – Energy for Schools Act (which includes a provision allowing insurance companies to be able to put limitations on payment without notifying the insured) that passed the House and now rests at the Senate. Will he or Senator Biden allow it to go forward with this provision?

Does Senator Obama and Senator Biden support HR 1076 (the fix for the loophole on law allowing insurance companies to deny coverage based upon the type of injury)?

What’s their feeling on NHTSA’s continued anti-motorcycle campaign? Do they support the continued funding for motorcycle awareness campaigns? Do they support funding for motorcycle training programs?

These are the things I am concerned about as a motorcyclist.

I know that in politics, motorcyclists are not seen as a large forum. However with the continuing energy and credit crisis, motorcycles sales are increasing and I feel it is it is prudent for the candidates to recognize this growing group.

John McCain recognized this when he spoke to people in Sturgis. Governor Palin has and does support motorcyclists, training/awareness programs, and our rights.

So, thank you to everyone letting me know that Barack Obama supports Harley-Davidson and buying American.

What else regarding motorcyclists and motorcycle rights does he support?
