Thread Name: BS: John Kerry
Subject: RE: BS: John Kerry
Sammy, got an update from the Move On people. I'm on their list.
This comes from their website.
"So we're moving forward. If one of the nine candidates receives more than 50% of the vote next Tuesday and Wednesday, we will officially endorse that candidate."
AS to Kerry supporting Bush, not sure about this. He has gone against the way Bush has handled Iraq. You can see more about this on his website. He has also been an outspoken critic against the Vietnam War. That doesn't sound like Bush to me. I really don't know his position on Iraq except to say that he has made some statements against it. You can read about it on JohnKerry.com.
Kucinich is an appealing candidate to me as well but I don't think he can beat Bush. I think Kerry might be able to.
I know he would like to dump Ashcroft and keep civil liberties in tact.
As to the Skull and Bones thing, I agree with Rapaire. It's a Yale thing and there are all kinds of secret organizations such as the Masons and they are sometimes amorphous. I don't see Kerry as supporting Hitler as the anonymous Guest seems to think.
Here's the deal, you never know what a candidate is really going to do and they do say different things at different times to different audiences. It's part of the political game. None of them "walk on water." The question that remains is this...can the country stand four more years of Bush?
It's been the lesser of two evils for years. It's a trap that unfortunately is a part of our current political system. There is no evidence to support its change in the immediate future.
Get someone like Kerry in and perhaps if it doesn't work out, someone better might come along. At least Bush will be defeated.
