With all the different polls that have been popping up I was just wondering who is pro Bush or pro Kerry. It's going to be a close race either way. I'm voting for Bush but I still support a lot of democrats. I'm definitely voting for democrat Barack Obama for the Illinois senate race.
hey tonysoprano,
i am for kerry all the way! myself personally, i do not like bush, or what he has done as a whole. i know i am from a minority here,lol. if u seen the other post on the subject u would know what i mean ;D
i really don't see kerry winning to be honest, but i still hopes he beats bush! there is my 2 cents! >:D O0
I used to be Kerry 100% actually Dean first :P I'm the only one in my group of friends who supports Bush. I liked Kerry until he changed his mind on about everything that he said from the beginning. I see him as some dope that marries rich women and wants the job to add to a collection of personal achievements. What I would really like to see is both of them go away and get 2 more people to run ;D
Bush reminds me of Homer Simpson too :P
I'm on the ABB Ticket (Anyone But Bush) :P
hay homer, and u couldn't of backed me up in the other thread when i was fending for kerry???? thanks bud! lol >:D O0
Bush or Kerry................mr nothing and mr nothing at all ;)
Must have missed it. :-\ I'm not really that wild about Kerry either. Just trying to pick the lesser of 2 evils. >:D
Maybe we should all talk Bob Dole into running again, just a suggestion :P
i'm glad it isn't my time to vote cuz i wouldn't vote for either one of them arses
i'm on the ABBK ticket (anyone but bush and kerry)
maybe i should run????? >:D O0 HAHAH!!!!
Bush
yall forget about the new canadite bowler_man2005 running vote for him :) O0
there is always Ralph Nadar for those who don't like George Bush or John Kerry
Is he really any better? He has been removed from the ballot in several states for signature fraud on the pettitions he filed to be added to the election ballot. Politics are a bunch of crap. Ask yourself one thing. Why do politicians quit high paying jobs in the private sector to become politicians for much less money? ???
I support Dick and Bush O0
i don't like politics i say it's evil >:D and the government are a bunch of load of crap i don't wanna get involved with any of that mess
If you don't choose to vote or get involved then you really can't complain when the government or president does something you don't like. Even if the person you choose to vote for doesnt win, you are still making a statement by showing your point of view.
Politicians DO look at who is and who is not voting- when they see there are not a lot of people voting in a certain age/gender/race they often look into as of why. For example- when younger people choose not to vote, then they will focus a little more effort on the groups that ARE voting. What's wrong with that? If you are a 19 year old college student hoping for a little change or help from the government to get through college but other people who are your age just dont care to vote, then a little less effort is going to be put into gaining your vote from the prospective parties.
Voting is a lot like flying an american flag out your window to show your pride and support for our country- it shows that you care about the decisions that are being made. When you hear people constantly complaining about the country or a decision that their elected official has made that really pissed them off- ask them this- Did you vote in the last election? If not then what right do they have to complain....? That right is called the Freedom of Speech which is another reason why you SHOULD continue to vote... to protect your rights as an American. The Rights that many people have dutifully served and some gave their lives to protect... so do your part, educate yourself on the issues at hand... go out and VOTE!

I think a lot of them become politicians to add to their collections of personal achievements for whatever reason weather its to help their businesses or just because they are rich and can. There are still a lot of good politicians out there. Its sad how corrupt our system is and how the few bad ones make it look bad for everyone. Thats my 99 cents on that

That doesn't mean you cant get involved. Pick a candidate and show your support. When you choose a candidate its like finding part of yourself, you are voting for someone who believes in what you believe in. I think people who are old enough to drive, take on responsibility, and pay taxes should be able to vote. There are a lot of youth movements out there pushing for that right now. I think that someday it might change.

I don't think they're all bad. I feel most politicians are in it for payola. Taking kickbacks from lobbyists and special interest groups and not to mention to ensure legislation is passed to help their rich "friends". ???
I wonder if John Kerry was in for the payola when he married Heinz Ketchup :P
I got another question..
Set aside Bush and Kerry for a second. Try to block out all political views associated with them. Who do you think makes a better 1st lady? Laura Bush or Teresa Heinz Kerry? I mean JUST the 1st lady. You can vote for Kerry but like Bush's wife better or vote for Bush and like Kerry's wife better.
teresa heinz kerry that why we can make fun of her name lol j/k >:D

So the fact that Haliburton is getting government contracts has nothing to do with Dick Cheney then right? It's not conspiracy theory. It's fact. In most major cities in the US, contractors are paying to play with local, state and federal government officials. Corruption in government is running rampant. You can search the internet for cases of government corruption. You would be surprised what is being reported. Just imagine what hasn't been reported yet. :-\
Thats politics :P I wish I was rich
not me wealth tears everyones life apart
then how bout have more money lol
having some more money would be ncie but not a very popular million air etc.. maybe a few million but thats all

AS far as corruption running rampant... thats everywhere you looks- huge corporations to small businesses to schools, to churches to families with broken homes- corruption is everywhereeeee
I Bet Ross Perot would win if he ran THIS time lol
I'm not voting for either....I'm moving to Canada, or maybe Montana >:D
You guys know Kerry's wife supports the lawyer who is defending Sadamm >:( ::) ???
Also I love how Kerry brags about his medals, BUT back in the day there are videos of him throwing them away in protest. (remember Forest Gump, that must have been kerry :-X :P )

Yes it is and it is government that makes it possible.
John Kerry is the man... oh no he's not...I'll decide later.
That's my support for Kerry in a Kerry-like manner.
Bush is the man because.... what was I saying?
That's my support for Bush in a Bush-like manner.

There are more than 6 million people in the United States so why are we limited to choosing between two guys?
"John Kerry says the 'W' in George W. Bush stands for 'Wrong.' But he still can't explain what John Kerry stands for." —David Letterman
i dont like neither one of them i say resurrect reagon (however you spell it) and re-elect him! lmao
Well this is my first time to vote and I have been giving it a lot of thought. Personally, I have found that I don't respect the people that vote "straight party" without backing up why they vote that way, other than the response "But I always vote <Party>". I think that every election should be a new evaluation of the candidates and the facts. There will always be some mud-slinging by both sides, but I think that just comes with the territory. After all, nobody is perfect. I have considered voting for bush, but I don't like the Idea that he will be in his second term, meaning he doesn't have to worry about pleasing the people because he can't get re-elected. And if going to war in Iraq was his way of not upsetting the people, I would hate to see what he would do in his second term when he doesn't have that worry. I have also considered Kerry, and I am disinclined to vote for him because of his wishywashyness. But then again, while I want a president who can take action, I want him to think long and hard about his decisions before he acts, so maybe a little sitting on the fence is allright after all. I think that all the stuff about purple hearts is a load of crap and both sides need to drop it because it doesn't hold relevance to the election or the future of the nation. Then I thought about voting Nader. I do support the environment and I would like to see more companies investing in R&D for earth-friendly products(especially cars and stuff) and GreenParty is an alternative to the Dem/Rep problem(where I don't really like either). The state I live in is not a swing state, so many people around me feel like their votes don't count, but I say they do! Even if I wouldn't vote either dem or rep, I might vote for Green just so that they can get some federal funding in the next election, because I think that a third choice is what is needed to help this country in the future. Therefore...I still haven't decided who to vote for. Hope this helps someone...
p.s.--sorry for the long post!
very well put goat. I voted for Bush in 2000 but I still try and listen to what each man has to say. the ads and speeches are a little misleading while it may contain a truth it doesn't tell whole story
lets say that I voted 66% of the time to save the whales well was there 3 votes 2-1 or 100 votes 66-34 and what if said bill says we can save whales but must kill dolphins to save whales then you can say I voted 66% of time to kill Dolphins.
also don't forget that kerry is making all job's government so most people could lose them
ok i got a question for you all if you dont mind me asking it is for a school project...
i was picked to side with bush on War on Terrorism
anyone want to send me a message telling me "How is War on Terrorism more important then anything else right now to this years election?" if that is understandable i have to take opinion for this question and i was hoping some of yall can send me a message stating your opinion and i, if you don mind, will use it most likely in my project that is due tomarrow
and i thakn you all right now to all that send their opinion to me becuase it time for me to go to school and i check it when i get back which would be about 6:30 eastern time or 3:30 pacific cya all later
Sorry bowler but I can only tell you one thing about Bush and terrorists. Whatever he's doing it isn't working. Bin Laden should have been caught before he ever invaded Iraq. I'm not so sure that Bush made the right decision to invade Iraq. What has it accomplished? Not alot in my opinion. I raq will be a mess for at least a decade. :-\
What you people do not realize is that Bin Laden may have already been captured. Bush could just waiting until November to let the information leak so that he can be re-elected. If you do not see this as a possibility, just wait. You shall see for yourself. 8)
If that's the case then Bush should be shot too. That would be about the dirtiest political trick i have ever heard of. The people who have suffered due to the attacks of 9/11 deserve some sort of closure to their ordeal. I have heard this theory before. Can't say I believe it the government has trouble keeping the smallest things secret. I just don't see them keeping something like that under wraps. Too many leaks.
I know what you mean. I don't really think that's the case but if so and it comes out that he was captured a while ago, Bush would probably take more heat for hiding it than the good that would come from finally catching him.
