I thought the question was WHY is AIDS such a POLITICAL ISSUE?

In my opinion AIDS is political because it is yet another thing to focus the attention away from the real problems in this country, by making our problems seem trivial compared to the poor and diseased in Africa.

I feel for those in need, as well as I am for CHARITABLE AID, but I am not for this being a national political issue, or a sieve of American tax money for foreign aid.
