now you're talking!! ok what would make me specifically vote for Kerry? these are some of the things:
- anybody who willingly went to the vietnam war has proved bravery and patriotism. I personally believe he won his medals honestly, and I think he's proved his mettle and decision making power under enemy fire. Definitely a good leadership quality.
- His foreign policy seems to be the right way to go...I think we've alienated ourselves from other nations, and there's a lot of mending to be done.
- His teammate, John Edwards knows what its like to be a poor average american, and what challenges one faces in order to succeed. I think the memories of his struggle will spill over into his execution of vice presidential duties.
These are just things off the top of my head, there's more I'll pen down later when I have some time.
Quite honestly, I think John Kerry is NOT the best candidate we've ever had, and I think charisma wise Bush is better. But Bush has had time to prove himself over 4 years, and I still see that on TV when he is asked an unscripted question..he FAILS to come up with an answer. I watch C-Span a lot, and that is what I've observed.
IMO Kerry aint the greatest, but he's the best of what we've got.
and who knows...anyone can surprise you. Bush certainly did.
