[quote=Keeper of the Light™]You can't say for certain that Kerry would be better or worse than Bush--ditto on Gore.
But think for a moment--have we ever had a really good president? I don't think so--every one was flawed in some way.
I think its hysterical how People were voting for Kerry, "because, anythings better than Bush"
Are you sure about that? What are you basing that on, the last time Kerry was president, oh.... wait.
And yes all our presidents suck in one way or another.

Emort: For the very reason that Gore and Kerry were never president is the reason I say it--we don't know how good, or how bad they will be. For all we know, Like most republicans say, Gore could have totally screwed up the aftermath of 9-11, or he could have handled it a lot better than Bush--we simply don't know. That was my point--I can't say Kerry or whoever could be better than Bush anymore than you or anyone else can say that they would have handled it worse.
Same thing with Kerry--he could have turned Iraq into something worse than it is now, or he could have fixed it--We don't know.
Anyhow, Considering all the LAME reasons why people voted for WHOEVER, it's really not up to us--people will vote for whoever they vote for--for whatever reason. I presonally think it's lame that a lot of people voted for Bush because of his religious convictions, but hey, it's their vote and they can vote the way they see fir. Just like those who voted for Kerry because they didn't like Bush--it's their perogative. It would be like if next election there wasn't someone i thought could do a good job, or bring more entropy without turning it into a totalitarian state--if i choose to write in Porky Pig, it's my perogative to throw away my vote in protest. That's one of the few beauties of this system--we vote for who we want for the reasons we want...as asinine as they are.

The only thing every single person from every single walk of life on earth can truly say
they have in common is that their country is run by a bunch of fargin iceholes.
thats all im saying KOTL.
Im just saying, that argument, is really based on nothing.
Im not being pro bush when i say that, im just saying, what the hell kinda reason is that.
IMO voting for religious reasons, even if your a pagan or whatever, makes more sense then voting "just because" all that shows is that you spend all your time watching fox or cnn and believe the media but don't actaully think about it.

Emor8t:
While I know that the devil you know is better than a kick in the giggleberries on a cold morning, many people don't. I personally voted for Kerry not only because Bush undermined the bill of rights with the Patriot Act bull@!#$, but he would add more entropy into the system.
Still, I wouldn't be surprised if people consulted the Psychic Hotline or got their information on who to vote for based upon what their Rice Krispies told them. I just look at the system as GIGO.
The politicians suck because the people suck.

BTW for all you IDIOT Bush fans, did you know that he has spent more days on vacation than ANY US president in history in only 5 years in office, he has spent over a 1/4 of his time in office on vacation, try doing that at your job and see what happens. Further proof he is the worst president this country has ever had
i total agree the people that put bush i office the second time must have been high or something. i mean look at the s*itty job he did the first four years

Might have been a better Idea to put Ross Perot on the ballot. There were a few independants on the ballot as well.. might have been a good idea to get them on it.
Day 5 and the military is JUST being mobilised.
Shameful.
Just Shameful.

No the structure thats put down by the forefathers is one of the best the world has, it is not perfect as no democracy is. The problem is that ppl dont educate themselves on issues or what the candidates really are, all I ever hear people say is well I choose the less of 2 evils. It should be about who you LIKE the best.
Many ppl in this country are naive sheep, they follow something because thier religion or thier political party says its ok or isnt. Had they ever taken the time to think global and beyond thier own culture, or were raised to seek out thier own answers rather than what everyone tells them or some 2000 year old book written by ppl with todays 5th grade education, they might feel differently about alot of things.

Well, that and people are pretty apathetic.. it's rife in the west.

Maybe Gore would have been better. Maybe not. The same can be said about Kerry. We will never know the answer to that question. The question we do have an answer to after 5 years in office is that everything George W. gets his hands on turns to total S*#t. The man is a broken record. As I watch the news last night G.W. was speaking in N.O. about the relief efforts. Twice he stated "we are" making progress ". I could not help thinking how many times have we heard " we are making progress" come out of this guys mouth? It sure seems that it's just the same old s*#t over and over. I'am tired of it!

i meant, the PEOPLE leading each branch and then each level below them.
i was not suggesting a overhaul of the way our democracy WORKS
i suggest a overhaul of WHO is making our democracy "work"
