Subject: RE: BS: Kerry/_____________???.....
Hey--on the wealth issue, talk to Frankham, as he is the one suggesting that too many leftists "have issues" with people of wealth. That is a tactic to discredit those who believe that John Kerry's life of privlege (not just his and/or his wife's obscene wealth) effects his thinking, his votes, and the political alliances he makes, in terms of how it effects the citizenry. In an era of millionaire politicians (just how many US senators aren't millionaires?) it is a legitimate question to ask.

As to suggesting that anyone who isn't supporting Kerry is actually a Bush supporter trying to sow seeds of discontent and "steal" votes from Kerry, like I said, that is a Communist Party tactic old as the hills.

Are all of you suggesting that anyone who isn't for Kerry is for Bush?

I don't think this election is quite that simple, despite the simple minds here thinking that saying so makes it so.

I would like to remind people that Kerry is not the official Democratic party candidate yet. He is simply the apparent nominee. Shit can and does happen between primaries and conventions, that cause the apparent nominee not to become the nominated candidate.

Like plane crashes. A recurrence of cancer. Making a gaffe, or series of gaffes, that causes the nominee to become unelectable.
