Reply #97: Clark supporter here...

[FrenchieCat]

Black/French woman residing in Berkeley for Clark here...

I totally agree to disagree with Eloriel and everything she had to say and I disagree with who she supports and thinks can beat our common enemy, Bush. Eloriel's thread only shows that she is protective of her candidate....Lord, I should know.....as I do the same.

The difference between Eloriel and I is most likely small compared to what we share in common. I believe that we both believe that Bush in the White House for 4 more years will be hell right here on earth.

I have already alerted my family that I will be moving back to France, if Bush is elected. At least there I will find that the majority uses it's common sense. Maybe that's why the Europeans get a chance to enjoy the more important things in life; like food, drink, friendships and other wonderful pursuits. It seems that here many (but far from all) are contrived, superficial, unreasoned, and just plain illogical. It is true that the French suffer from certain flaws as well. You can call me arrogant, as I know that is one of them.

I'll blame myself only for ever having left my home in the first place. But I guess I would have never known what I know now unless I had ventured away.

What I have experienced of America over my lengthly stay would absolutely give any rational outsider the chills.

Individuals are so wrapped up in being right, that often they never see it coming. Then it's surprise, surprise, surprise!

I just wish that we all could get along, but seems like we can't.

Whether it's a war of words or a war of weapons, one thing has been proven even here at DU. As long as there are people on this earth, wars will always be fought. It is an unfortunate conclusion, but one that we have'nt the will, nor the strength, nor the inclination to avoid or stop.

PEACE OUT!
