that he's not Bush? He's a pretty similar candidate on a lot of issues. Only everything is like half-assed approaches. If you dislike Bush because of attacking Iraq, do you not realize that Kerry would have done the same, except he would have waited? Kerry has the same favour toward Israel. He gives half-assed responses to his views on gay marriage.Really, voting against someone is a spit on democracy.
Part of the reason I am voting for Kerry is because I don't like Bush, but I do like Kerry's policies and character. How about the following reasons:1. Kerry is more committed to the environment.2. Kerry's healthcare plan is much better than Bush's3. Kerry for a long time now has been urging us to invest in technology that will make us less dependent on foreign oil and more efficient in general. 4. Kerry will be more fiscally responsible than Bush. 5. Kerry is endorsed by virtually every living American economist with a credible record. All the nobel laureates want him. I have to believe he will manage the economy better than Bush will.6. Kerry stated the day he cast his vote to give Bush authority to wage war:"Let there be no doubt or confusion about where we stand on this. I will support a multilateral effort to disarm him (Saddam) by force, if we ever exhaust those other options, as the President has promised, but I will not support a unilateral U.S. war against Iraq unless that threat is imminent and the multilateral effort has not proven possible under any circumstances." Kerry (Oct. 9, 2002) 7. Kerry will support stem cell research. 8. For those of you who haven't seen it. Kerry's testimony before Congress at the age of 27 after coming home from Vietnam impressed me a great deal and demonstrates that he is an individual who cares passionately about this country. He committed to public service at a young age, and showed an ability to lead responsibly while still a young man. That is enough for now.
Go BUSH!I called the local Board of Elections today, just to make sure everything was o.k. with my voter registration. I checked online, and they had me listed as inactive, because they thought I moved. Good thing I called! They got it straightened away, so I'll be able to vote my conscience and for the man I think will do the better job for our country November 2nd. Also, my brother has been watching the debates on his own, and recently informed me he's registered and will also be voting for George Bush. *Keeps fingers crossed!!!
i dont understand where your coming from tho lincoln. Say you do not like where the president has taken the country in the past 4 years. And you see the country goin more into the shitter with him as president. How is basing your vote on what you have wittnessed him do a spit in the face of democracy. As long as the other candidate isnt a complete joke how is that a spit in the face of democracy?

The whole reason we have democracy is so that you can vote the candidate who best represents your views, not who has a chance at winning. That's why 3rd parties have no chance. If people vote who you believe best represents their views then 3rd parties would have more support. For example, all the Nader support is going to Kerry, but Nader will never even reach the debates unless he gets votes.
