The two remaining candidates for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination, senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have both warned of a pending recession and have laid the blame squarely on the Bush administration.

       At a recent campaign debate in Texas, Obama spoke (that) at length about the country’s economic (wars) woes. “You don’t need (the) an economist(s) or the Federal Reserve to tell the American people that the economy is in trouble, because they have been experiencing(ed) (in) it for years now.”

       Clinton followed up with a list of specific economic trouble (spars) spots that must be addressed, starting with corporate tax regulations. “We are going to rid the tax code of these (who posed) loopholes and giveaways. (re-) we are going to stop, giving a penny of your money (that) to anybody who ships a job out of (taxes) Texas, Ohio or (on) anywhere else to another country.”

       Both said (the) that tax cuts championed by President Bush have helped only the richest Americans, and (then) vowed to put more of a focus on tax-relief for the middle class.
