It greatly disappointed me that both candidates failed to tackle the issue of women's health and reproductive rights. It's understandable that neither of them wanted to be the first to bring it up, but thank goodness Schieffer did. It was about time.

After reading a few news article about it, I realized that some reporters were siding with Obama, but in fact he was not even close to proposing a solution for the ongoing, controversial issue. Both candidates are very careful about what they say when it comes to women's rights. However, I'm tired and fed up with there being silence. The topic needs to be addressed and action is crucial. In one article, it points out how Obama said he wants pro-life and pro-choicers to come to this harmonious agreement. He also said, "... and helping single mothers if they want to choose to keep that baby..." How about the programs if the mother decides not to.

What about the steady influence of religion in the medical practice, which can ultimately affect rape victims and their chance to receive the emergency contraceptive pill if they choose so. That's only the beginning because there's a slew of women's health issues that need to be addressed with this next president's term. It's inevitable the next president is going to be attacked for his position on women's health rights(mainly abortion), but at least he revived the long-lost subject and had the courteousy to tell the American people how he felt.
