The Kyoto Accord was rejected by the United States of America. John Kerry was one voice amongst many. Business brought incredible pressure to bear because the Accord ratification would have cost BIG BIG bucks. To single out Kerry is not right. Quote his voting record, but don't imply that he caused the Accord to be rejected. Bush led the way on that.

I would remark to GUEST (above) that he argues very well and writes excellently. I tend to agree that 'electoral politics' are not the answer, but a world socialism is not either. The world is now firmly in the hands of multi-nationals, and the hope that we might wrest power back from world banks is a very faint hope at best. I admire that you are trying, but I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon. I would vote Kerry because I think that Bush is in bed with the Power Elite, and having him lead the USA for a second term would end any chance at all of achieving a world that you or I would prefer to see. I will likely be dead and forgotten by the time the remnants of MJ-12 run the whole show, but my kids won't. So I see this election as one of 'realities' rather than ideologies. I cannot vote in your elections, but please know that if I could Kerry would get my vote. Not because he walks on water, but because he can defeat Bush. That will have to be good enough this time 'round. IMO.
