35. I like Dean's passion. Mostly because people accuse me of being too
Passionate. I like the fact that he speaks his mind regardless of what other people tell him.

I don't agree with some of Dean's stances...The confederate flag thing was one. But, if I supported Dean from the start it the CF issue wouldn't have been enough for me to pull my support from him on that issue alone.

I do agree with Dean that we need to study Medical pot before blanketly approving it. I agree with Dean on how we should open a channel of communication with the anti-choice moderates and right. Perhaps we can work together to make sure that abortions like Clintion said legal, safe and rare.

Dean isn't an Anti-War candidate Dean more specifically was against the Iraq war. I didn't agree with the Iraq war either. I do think like Dean however that we should have gone into Afghanistan and FINISHED the job and let it end there.

I agree that we should steer the party with issues and not rhetoric. I liked it when he said that we should concentrate on what affects real americans instead of the DLC and that the DLC has no real power.

I think Dean would make sure we show a united front to the right.

When Dean speaks to the media he will point out the hypocracy of the right. I also hope that Dean will HAND PICK our pundits so that they show a unified front to the American public. I think Dean would make sure that our pundits will say on message and beat the shit out of the regressive pundits everytime they try to blame stuff on Clinton.

I think Dean will be able to bring enthusiaim back to party and we won't appear to be lame and tired to the American public.

That's why I like Dean the man. He's a good guy. I don't think he is as Liberal as a lot of people think. But that's o.k. No one is perfect. There are some things that I don't agree with Clark on but I don't support him any less.

See, I like Dean. It's no surprise here. Nothing I haven't said before. If more people would read instead of scream they would see that we are all on the same page. Quite a few of you seem to think that if people don't support Dean for Chair that we are corporate whores. Can't people just not like the guy for DNC chair? Why go there and put words in their mouths and be rude.

When I ask for unity I'm not asking people to do anything other than to be civil to one another and to quit telling people to fuck off and being freeperish to one another.

It seems like we have to pass some sort of I LOVE DEAN test not to be accused of being a republican around here and that isn't fair. You shoud do a search and read of what people say to each other. You'd be AMAZED at how people behave.
