Imagine BUSH During the Cold War
Kerry should make this point. Imagine if during the Cold War Bush had been President. Would we even be here? (Answer: NO)

Whether at the debates or in an ad, Kerry should draw a comparison to the other JFK and how during the Cuban Missile Crisis, he knew that true strength lay in judicious wisdom, being prepared, but using restraint (of course, using the words "judicious wisdom" may be a turn-off for some of the less-intelligent electorate).

Bush in post Nuclear exchange world: "Sure 2 Billion people are dead and vast stretches of the world are radioactive, but my opponent thinks the world would be a better place with Commies in power."

Since Kerry can't ACTUALLY SAY the world WOULD be safer if Sadaam was still in power...however...that ad would be EXCELLENT! I love it!!!

On Edit to add...there IS a historical perspective here that there is NOT regarding Iraq...thanks!!!
