I wish I were as confident as you. I'm resigned to the possibility of four more years of multinational corporate misrule.

There are a LOT of stupid, easily-manipulated voters, and an even larger number of terminally disaffected non-voters. Both of these factors weigh heavily in Bush's favor.

Asolutely, Bill. Any decent, freedom-loving American who cannot handle the government-sponsored lunacy stateside is more than welcome in Canada. Just like back in the Vietnam War. We can use good people like you here. My original guitar teacher, way back in 1970, was an American campus protestor who got out in '68 with the FBI on his tail for leading campus demonstrations against the war, and he never went back. He was one of the brightest, funniest, and best people I have ever had the good fortune to know.

Ya' go me on that one....

Hey, I don't like Bush but lets get real. The guys in charge of the voting machines (that will produce no paper trails) are rabbit Bush guys. Bush's folks have 10 times as many lawyers. 100 times as many goons ready to do do their brownshirtin' where ever needed and if that ain't enuff...

.... 5 to 4 Supreme Court edge...

Now exactly how is Kerry going to get thru all that stuff???

Actually, Mrs Olive, I have thought something similar to that.

You know when Repubs have used words to imply that Kerry is a "traitor"? Kerry should make the following statement: "To the next chickenhawk Republican office holder that challenges my patriotism, they had better be ready to back up their assertions with their fists!" Yeah, this one statement would do more to rip the "Southern Strategy" to shreds than a $50B P.R. campaign and two "Kerry for Prresident" NASCAR race cars....

Given what is happening in various states -- including Florida again, FCOL!! -- it looks like this election also might get stolen by the Republicans. The horror stories about Diebold voting machines are mounting by the day, and nothing seems to be getting done about them.

I also heard (and would appreciate confirmation from American posters) that exit polls have been banned. They would at least put the Diebold results in some doubt, if chicanery actually occurs.

I've been in Canada for 30 years and its been good to me. It isn't easy leaving family and friends but its better than living under dictatorship.

Sometimes it gets down to that - either protesting on the streets or making a run for it. Trouble is, most of us remember Kent State and would rather not risk asserting our right to free assembly.

I bloody hope so, but then there's Flordia pardon the spelling, and we know what last time, vote rigging, and then they have the cheek to say to Maungabe that his elections are wrong, eh! cousin Buba I'll help you win again Jed/jeb.

And then you wonder why hardly anyone likes Bush. But Bush will get in thanks to his cousin.

So bye bye Kerry it was good to see you.

But I hope that John Kerry gets in because I'm a terrified person, because there's a mad man running our country, Tony Blair.
And in America an even more madman Bush.

Whatever you do don't let bush near any red buttons.

Kerry's campaign is going to start highlighting Republicans for Kerry, including this important endorsement...imo, it offers some very bright hope, along with other factors which have been happening:

At last week's presidential debate, Democrat John F. Kerry took note of an endorsement he received from a man with a familiar Republican name. John Eisenhower, son of the 34th president, last week wrote in a newspaper commentary that he is casting his first Democratic presidential vote in 50 years because of concern about President Bush's policies in Iraq and budget deficits at home.

Eisenhower's flight from the GOP ticket appeared in a place where important Republicans were sure to see it -- the conservative Manchester Union-Leader, in the battleground of New Hampshire. "The fact is that today's 'Republican' Party is one with which I am totally unfamiliar," wrote Eisenhower, 82, who has a home near the Eastern Shore community of Trappe, Md. On Iraq, he wrote, "the current Republican leadership has confused confident leadership with hubris and arrogance."

There is also this woman who left the "Bush fold" in August and is endorsing Kerry:

...They include Rita E. Hauser. She is not exactly a household name, but is certainly known in foreign policy circles. She serves as vice chairman of the prestigious President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, appointed by none other than George W. Bush in December 2001.

I fully expect an event inside US borders before Oct 21. It fits. So much to do with Oklahoma City, the first WTT and the 9/11 attacks have been left unanswered. Nothing will unite voters like fear. Doesn't even matter who provides the fear. S'long as there's fear.

I notice that Kerry doesn't attend the festivities at Bohemian Grove. Maybe that's a good sign, right? However, it seems both parties have attendees at the Bilderberg festivities. What to do?

I hope Americans can save their country from this corruption. But I have no idea how.

brucie - I think the only thing that will make anyone notice, is a total, general strike on both sides of the border. The only thing that will make them stop is if it hurts economically. The workers have forgotten that they grease the wheels. If there's no grease, the machinery stops.

Unions can call a general strike and if they do I hope everyone realizes that this is not for wages or working conditions. I hope the rest of the population will walk out, too. It should be called, "Walk out for democracy!"

Of course, they are gearing up to impose martial law but heh, at least then, everyone will know what Bush is really about. Maybe the corporations will wake up and begin to put some pressure on Bush as well. Civil war is not economically advantageous.

I think along those lines because it gives time for the gov't to react and respond, but not sufficient time for good info to leak. Ten to twelve days just seems to fit. It's long enough to talk about the foolishness of changing horses during a crisis, and short enough to be seen enacting emergency measures--yet not really sufficient time to get to the bottom of anything.

A general strike wouldn't work in the US because corporations are so busy sending all of our jobs here in the US to other countries, people are getting desperate for any job at all. Most people wouldn't risk the chance of losing their job in a general strike.

Wouldn't it be just peachy if the current U.S. administration "found" bin Laden just before election time?

There are so many stories that could be fabricated: they could claim to have unearthed his body from one of those caves the U.S. bombed way back in that long forgotten war in Afghanistan. Faked dental records could be submitted as "proof." Hell, they could throw in a rusty old dialysis machine for good measure.

Whatever lead Kerry might have in the polls at the time would be wiped out. An event of such magnatude would pretty much clinch the election for Bush.
