Nov. 2 is almost here. Get out and vote KERRY/EDWARDS.
Ant:
To anyone leaning towards Kerry/Edwards or still on the fence... some brief thoughts.
At times over the past four years it seems as if the news just doesn't care to do its job. Information I feel is important constantly gets buried in the press, but with a little research it becomes clear just how important it is to get out and vote for Kerry on Nov. 2. Consider the following:
1. Every single living American Nobel Laureate economist has endorsed Kerry citing Bush's misguided and disasterous economic policies. On this front, while Bush receives some support, he receives virtually unamimous opposition from the economic community. It is widely believed that Kerry would be better on economic issues, but it is not understood the extent to which Bush is mismanaging the economy. Without getting into a lot of specifics at this point it simply needs to be said and understood that the 'voices of wisdom' stand with Kerry on this issue. See.... http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5818277/
2. Over 5000 American Scientists including 48 Nobel Laureates, 62 national medal of science recipients, and 127 members of the National Academy of Science have signed a statment saying the Bush Administration is manipulating science for political gain and in doing so is putting the welfare of the public at risk. See.. http://www.ucsusa.org/news/press_release.cfm?newsID=405
3. Harvard Business School has become so fet up with the Bush Administration that the VERY school the president earned his MBA from recently drafted a letter explaining why they feel Bush is bad for the country. 95% of HBS professors signed the letter and they then passed the letter onto MIT and Wharton where it was signed by 90% of their business and economic departments. http://www.openlettertothepresident.org/
4. 750 'foreign policy specialists' drafted and signed a letter accusing the Bush Administration's foreign policy of being severly misguided.

5. Our support in the world is at an ALL TIME LOW.. Of 60 countries surveyed last month only 3 want Bush re-elected: Russia, Nigeria, and Poland. A new poll of 10 countries this month confirmed that result. Of the ten countries polled only 2 wanted Bush re-elected: Russia, and Poland. Only 28% of Great Britian wants to see Bush re-elected and these numberes continue to trend downward. If Bush wins the whitehouse again he will be the least liked American President EVER.
If you don't think its important to Vote this year your wrong!... if you're not sure which side you should stand on, think hard.. which side offers the more persuading arguement? Bill Clinton said recently "information is our ally, deception is theirs" look over the recent campaign, and that statement sadly rings true. Rather than debate the facts, Bush has ran a marketing campaign based on name calling (liberal, flip-flopper), lies, and deception.
PS Feel free to use the links above and spread the word. A lot of this stuff just doesn't make headlines on its own.

Trauma-san:
Ant, wouldn't you prefer that people get out and vote whom they want to, instead of for a candidate they may not know much about?
I would prefer that everyone get out, do the research, and vote for whom they think best represents their ideals and morals, whom you would like to see in office. I'll leave it up to you to choose who that is... but don't vote if you're ignorant about the issues and what each candidate believes, you'd be foolish to vote in someone you don't know anything about. Research the issues.
