I would like 2 know why Kerry?
Is it just because of how bush did his job and u just have have pure hate for him?
Is it because u seen Moores dumb lil movie?
Black house ownership is up to record heights
Job rates are up
and So many other things why change 2 Kerry on the real?
Can someone tell me where John Kerry stands?
Can someone tell me what his platform is?
Can someone tell me why he voted for the war but not 2 fund the troops?
Can someone tell me why he voted 2 go after Sadam? But now it was the wrong war at the wrong time?
And i was reading something in double xl with Kayne,Dave,Common and other and it talked about this.
Can you tell me about NAFTA?
And tell me what has changed for you in the last 12 years?
How has Bush made your life a living hell?
And how is Kerry going to fix it?
We can go over this and over this but the point is Kerry has no backbone. How can you sit back and wait on someone 2 attack us than wait on Nato 2 say it's okay to go fight back?
When you vote for Kerry do you know what and who you are voting for. I could list all the facts in the world about the 2 but i will not. Far az no jobs hell they are jobs out there. But pride plays a big part in that. I here 30 and 40 yr old men and women talking about i cant get a better job than KFC,WENDYS ETC.... Well you had the chance to goto school and make something outta your self but you didnt that is not bush fault that u didnt g2 school you wanted 2 sit back and kick it now u really are kicking it huh.
So in less than 30 days we will have our man in office. So he can get back to work. Peace!
exactly...
and by the way, when clinton ran for reelection in 1996, the unemployment rate stood at 5.6%, today it stands at 5.4%!
it's funny how NO ONE CAN SAY WHAT THE HELL KERRY'S POSITION ON IRAQ IS!
here's another thing that's funny: CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW THE DEMOCRATS HAVE HELPED BLACK PEOPLE IMPROVE THEIR LIVES OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS?
"they gave us civil rights... :roll: "
WRONG!
it was a republican LEGISLATION that passed the civil rights bills...it's was the DEMOCRATS from the south that tried to block it! JUST BECAUSE L B JOHNSON WAS PRESIDENT WHEN THESE BILLS PASSED DOESN'T MEAN THE DEMOCRATS SUPPORTED CIVIL RIGHTS! :idea:
SO WHAT ELSE?
MORE food stamps?
MORE affirmative action?
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Can someone tell me where John Kerry stands?
Can someone tell me what his platform is?
Kerry's Platform on National Security has four imperatives:
1) Launch And Lead A New Era Of Alliances
2) Modernize The World's Most Powerful Military To Meet New Threats
3) Deploy All That Is In America's Arsenal; including diplomacy, sanctions, and marketing western values
4) Free America From Its Dangerous Dependence On Mideast ****
His platform on the Economy include:
1) Create Good-Paying Jobs, by cutting taxes for businesses that create jobs here in America instead of moving them overseas. John Edwards will enforce our currently established trade agreements
2) Cut Middle-Class Taxes To Raise Middle-Class Incomes
3) Make Washington Live Within A Budget
4) Invest In The Jobs Of Tomorrow - encourage new technology and innovation; similar to the tech-boom of Clinton's presidency
Health Care (an important issue to me)
1) John Kerry and John Edwards will cut family premiums by up to $1,000.
2) Cover All Americans With Quality Care
Education:
John Kerry and John Edwards will establish a National Education Trust Fund to ensure that schools always get the funding they need. This will correct the fundamental flaw with the No Child Left Behind legislation
The rest of his platform can be read on his website www.johnkerry.com

Disarming Saddam Hussein was the RIGHT thing to do. Going after Saddam Hussein without the approval of the UN, and breaking international laws was the WRONG thing to do.
Congress authorized the use of force against Iraq (not a war) in November 2002. The UN decides against supporting the United States in February 2003. Kofi Annan declares the war illegal in September 2004. Kerry could not have known that the UN would be overwhelmingly against disarming Saddam.
Quote:
Can you tell me about NAFTA?
Kerry, just like Howard Dean wants to revise NAFTA and use our leveraging power as the world's greatest economy to ensure that labor standards are established in our partner countries. Some people claim that NAFTA is causing America to lose jobs. "Outsourcing" is causing America to lose jobs. The positive aspects of NAFTA are competitive and cheaper choices in the products that we buy who have origin on this continent. Free trade among our neighboring countries makes sense.

And tell me what has changed for you in the last 12 years?
Unless you plan on being more specific, this question is irrelevant because the presidency is only the last four years.
Quote:
How has Bush made your life a living hell?
No president can make your life a living hell. That's a statement that is too broad.
Quote:
And how is Kerry going to fix it?
One can't answer this question in the context of the previous question because the previous question is too broad.
As for my personal opinion, Kerry appears to be the canidate who will lower my health care costs and try to lower my taxes (imagine a Dem, doing that?)

Kerry has no backbone? Kerry shows thoughtfulness. A characteristic that a man of his experience and stature should possess. Bush shoots from the hip.
Security measures in the US have handled most of the threat on our soil. We should concern ourselves more with nuclear proliferation, a topic Kerry has made more light of, while the Bush administration ignores and has even called to withdraw troops from ****. They also used strong words against Iran, but they did not mention attacking them.

People mess up in life, but your statement is insensitive and unreasonable. Not everyone goes to school; nor should they be allowed to go to college, but they've had the opportunity to live a prosperous life by working hard. When working hard doesn't give you a meaningful return, it can be depressing. Until your family has felt the stung of a breadwinner being laid off, or released because the plant is moving, you really should consider not making asinine statements like that.
These are all the opinions of an independent voter.
MORE food stamps?
MORE affirmative action?
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
