262. Have you received the personal guarantee from Kerry.
Edited on Fri Jul-16-04 09:51 PM by StandUpGuy
or is it blind faith that you will still have the strength of numbers and sentiment after the ABB campaign wraps up and Kerry is crowned.

How many Americans believe Bush Jr is the problem, will be active as hell to defeat him, then go smugly back to sleep once bush has been sent back to Crawford. (like he would really go there). That would leave the fringe radicals left to force Kerry into real change.

Which Bush are you referring to when you say put things back to the way they were before Bush?

And what do you hope laws will prevent happening again ?

The topics in this thread highlight systemic failures in the global economic and political systems. How can simply defeating bush and hoping Kerry will fix things provide anyone with hope. Where is the leverage needed to make Kerry do anything close to what needs to be done.

What if Bushco has never had any intention of winning a second term and can hardly believe they still have supporters.

What if Bush Jr's mission was to plunge us so far down the rabbit hole that Kerry or anyone would struggle or fail to fight and fix things.

What if Kerry and the Bush defeat becomes the Big distraction we've all been expecting in November.

For the record I am not anti Kerry I am 100% anti ABB and I feel NOW is the time to get Kerry to play ball and talk real.

Has republican lite ever worked anywhere ?

edit:
Are there more pissed off republicans voting for Kerry or are there more scared Green/Naderites voting for Kerry.

If the answer is even close we have way more leverage than kerry will admit.
