Both Bush and Kerry don't excite me. I voted for Nader last time, and I think I'll do it again.

what should kerry apologize for?....for volunteering to go to war and serving his country honarably?...the republican spin machine has twisted it so that even though bush got out of vietnam the country has turned on kerry who has a great war record while bush does not even have one

During the next Presidential term, the President will be appointing as many as 3 new U.S. Supreme Justices. Whoever is put on that court can serve until they die!! This was my wake up call. Things like Roe vs. Wade, same sex marriages, keeping church and state seperate (just to name a few).
I have a daughter and could have a granddaughter years down the road and I personally don't feel I should be able to make laws over their bodies! In the early 1990's I went to Washington, D.C. and voiced my opinion about this and now I will voice my opinion again through my vote. My 2 cents!!

I voted Nader last year too. I won't be doing that again because unfortunately I "now" view it as a vote for Bush.

I haven't been posting lately,but everyone has a code that they live by.I,
seriously,don't think that people realise the intense dislike,that VN vets,feel
for the way,that THEY feel that John Kerry stabbed them in the back.To use
his words,"Bands of Brothers" don't do that.Right or Wrong,in his feelings.I was
discharged in 1965,long before he served.As a 10% disabled vet,I will NEVER
forgive him!These are my personal feelings,& I don't care about debating,if
things were done right or wrong.There is NO way that I could vote for Kerry &
as far as I'm concerned,it's ABK(Anything but Kerry)I realise that everyone has,very, strong feelings about this.These are mine.I'm 60 yrs old.I have lived in Conn(south of Mass) & New Hampshire(north of Mass)& in 20 yrs as a senator,I have not seen him contribute anything.I have a plan,also.It's called
ABK! Irish

Sharni---I doubt if I'll start posting again,I just felt so strongly about this,that
I had to express my opinion.It may not be right or wrong,but it's the way that I feel.I'm not saying that anyone is wrong,but I had to express my feelings.I've been trying to avoid disagreements,but MANY,in my generation,
feel the same way.When you put your pants on in the morning,& look at that
scar,you don't need someone else,telling you that you were wrong.As some-
one,who has been,in the motorcycle livestyle,for over 45yrs,I've had enough
bad things,blamed on me.(us) Irish

Summer - I can see how you would play it safe this time, being from Florida. My state is considered "safe" by both parties. Not many campaign stops here, I can tell you. Since I dont have to worry about the possibility that Nader will actually change the outcome of the election in my state, I'm free to vote my concience.
Good luck!

Scarecrow,
I though they managed to keep him off the ballot in Maryland also. Seems I was wrong about that!

ah Bush makes up his own words and has lost all of his credibility in my eyes anyway, and as far as Kerry goes he doesn't have good ideas for a lot of things....I can't trust anything I hear from either of them
But what is my main statement is that what they say and what they will actually do are two TOTALLY different things lol

Summer,
It's comming true soon! I just read a news item that Chief Justice Rehnquist is in the hospital being treated for thyroid cancer.

I've just been on something of a globe trot. Most people I met just aren't interested in this election.
It's not that they are not interested in the US, rather people feel that US politics is so embedded to the US' national interest, that it doesn't matter who wins - the rest of the world will get more of the same.
For those of us not into political theory (right, left whatever), it does seem a choice of the lesser of two mediocres.
