Over here (UK), some uneducated prat could vote for the BNP, but they sure as hell will never actually get elected.
Had to change my language before posting, don't want to get in too much trouble over my hatred for the BNP.

John Kerry - Democratic
George Bush - Republican
Ralph Nader - Independent
But just vote on who you think has the upper odds at winning the election in the U.S. for the year of 2004...
and remember, the U.S. uses the 'Electoral College' system, cuz 4 years ago Al Gore had more votes, but not more points.

It's simple as this, which one is worse for the country, I'll admit, Kerry is not the best choice for president, but I do think between the two candidates that actually have a chance of winning, he will do a better job.
We have had four years of bush and to be honest he has done a horrible job, I honestly think that if Kerry had been president for the past four years he would of done a better job.
Go ahead and talk about your flip flop bullnuts, but look at both of their records and tell me which ones is better.
The main reason I will be voting for Kerry is Bush's handling of the Iraqi War, No one will dispute the fact that Saddam hussein was a warmonger, but Bush handled this war from start to present completely wrong.
Back when his dad invaded Iraq he did not continue to baghdad because there was no clear exit plan, just like there isnt now. We will be occupying Iraq for generations to come, the loyalty the saddam loyalists have is insane, and even the Iraqi embassitor said Terrorists are flooding through the boarders to aid the Saddam loyalists. The Iraqi army and police are complete bullnuts, you don't think at least a 1/10th of those would turn their guns on their own people for Saddam if we leave?
I read an article in my local paper that Saddam is planning on running for president of Iraq, and because he has not been convicted of any crimes, he will be able to. In this same article it said over 55% of the Iraq people want him back.
There are countless more things I could say about Bush and this Iraqi war, I could probably fill a book. But just look at the facts, do a bit of research and make up your own mind, but do not totally listen to either sides adds or political bullnuts, Do your own research and make up your own mind.

See your wrong it wont be those how wanted him in who will want him out. It will be all the Bush supporters who actually think that bush is doing a good job.I'm tired of all the people saying "Oh, we need to get Bush out of office, he is killing America,". Well those people will be saying the same this about Kerry IF he gets elected. I bet anyone $20 that is true. Any takers?

I have to agree. I'm voting for Kerry anyways... but, just because I have bad luck and am not voting for Bush... Bush will probably remain president. That's all we need is for him to be re-elected. :/Nah in all seriousness...I strongly believe bush will win again, but I wish Kerry would.Im all for Kerry.

Speaking of him..I got a voicemail today from him.
I guess they use automated personalized messages, so he called me Jennifer instead of Jenevive, it's ok though.
I'll still vote for him

Oh! I almost forgot. If i have to hear one more Bible thumper say that they're voting for Bush because of the sole fact that he is "For abortion" (Wich really shows how dumb they are because they didn't say "Pro-Choice") I am gonna FREAK THE HELL OUT! Oh know, it's going to be another president that does nothing to stop the death of unborn babies!! Lets put the a-hole who's blowing all the money we don't have back in for another 4 years so he can completely ruin our economy, AND, give all of his rich friends MORE MONEY. I hate him.
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both. -Ben Franklin

In November of the year 2004, a new president will be elected to govern the United States of America for the next four years. The two main candidates for the presidential race are John Kerry (Democratic) and George Bush (Republican). They have on multiple times met together to debate issues that are of great importance to American Citizens. Of these topics, I am going to discuss the issues of abortion, religion, and gay and lesbian issues in this essay.
The two candidates have entirely opposite view on this issue. Current president George Bush is in high opposition to abortion. He believes that in any case that does not include rape, incest, or the endangerment of the life, that abortion should not be allowed. He desires to extend the 14th amendment to provide protection to unborn children. On the other hand, Candidate John Kerry supports the choice to have an abortion strongly. He moves to have health insurance plans that cover an abortion. I believe that abortion should be considered murder. As soon as a fetus begins to form, that child has a life. To end that child’s life is morally wrong and should only be allowed in cases of rape, incest, or if there is a great chance that the mother and child will die during birth.
President Bush called for a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriages. He does not have a firm belief on civil unions because he has said that he will leave that decision for the states to decide themselves. While he does not believe that homosexuality is compatible with the military, he is in favor of the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. Kerry opposes same-sex marriages but opposes a constitutional amendment to ban them. He does on the other hand support civil unions. He sponsored the employment non-discrimination plan, which bans discrimination on homosexuals when apply for a job. He also is against the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy because he believes that gays and lesbians should be allowed to serve in the military while openly showing their sexual preference. I am strongly opposed to homosexuality. While I do believe that they should not be discriminated against in any issues regarding getting a job, I am opposed to gay and lesbian marriages and civil unions.
Bush is against separation of Church and State. In fact, he is against anything that separates religion from public life. He is an evangelical United Methodist who has been born again. He believes that religion is an important part of everyday life. Kerry believes strongly in separation of Church and State. He is under the watch and pressure of the Catholic Church because of his view on abortion. He believes that all decisions should be made on his obligation to the people and not what he believes in a religion. I personally believe that there should be no separation of Church and State. Those two things should go hand in hand. Religion is a very important part of everyday life.
As you can clearly see President Bush and Senator John Kerry believe in almost the total opposite of the other in mot issues. One could say that they are bi-polar. Most of my opinions are in agreement with George Bush’s. This is probably because both of us belong to a Christian denomination and therefore believe in a lot of the same views.
