All talk, yes but he isn't President yet so there is no definite way in knowing what he would do. I think all candidates give out false promises, it's a sure thing.

he has given more than one false promise, i mean he lies about one thing and then lies about another thing on the same subject. he has a great poker face. i just watched his newest speech.

[SIZE=1]he's just plain lame, and it's true that he lies.. ALL THE TIME. i still can't see him fulfilling all his promises without some hidden intention in the whole deal. call me hateful but i just don't like him.

QUOTE(CrackedRearView @ Aug 18 2004, 11:45 AM) Is there any? He's been all talk, and his record in Senate is disputable... There is none. But the problem is that many, if not most, people regard Bush has more bad then good. 0>bad. Recent polls show that almost half of Kerry supporters only support Kerry because they dislike Bush more. What good was there in Bill Clinton in 1992? Absolutely none ... but he still won, because Bush Senior had more bad in him than good. (also because of Perot). |

Screw free? 47% taxation, $2 trillion of debt, laws that let the police arrest you without having a reason? Sounds like pretty screwed up to me.

all we can rely on are promises. we relied on bush wen he said there were WMD but nope there wernt any. and we relied on him when he said that there were programs of mass detructiong but nope none. i also do not support killing 10,000 innocent people.

Nader is better than Kerry. He at least has integrity. I totally disagree with most of his politics, but if he were president, he wouldn't get anything done because of Congress -- which is good.

To get on to a state's ballots, you have to get a certain number of signatures first (In Pennsylvania it is 40,000). Nader has no party behind him, so he wasn't able to get all those signatures. |

So does Bush...
If you paid everyone in America $20, that would set you back a good $6 billion. Compare that to Kerry's campaign budget of $100 million. |

Where is it that you get your information from? Don't base your opinions on what others say. I don't like Bush either, but I don't go around telling people that he's a hick and only one because of his father. What's done is done, he's was and maybe will still be the President. All we have to do is wait and see. Kerry is no better and no worse than Bush. Kerry supports the war also . . . didn't you know that? So what makes him any different from Bush. We'd most likely still be in the same place we are now even with Kerry. I don't know about you, but if that seems to be the case I would much rather have the same President that is running now than a new one. I believe he must finish what he has started. |

Yeah, and to JustPeachy: An investigation was launched in Florida and New York and they found out that there were people who registered in two states and they illegally voted in Florida. I think like only 12% voted for Bush, 67% voted for Gore and the rest voted something else. So I don't see how you can make the case that Bush stole Florida, when it was Democrats who broke the law by voting in two states. |

Because he's a hypocrite. Also because Edwards went to public school and his daddy worked in a mill. LOL!
I don't understand why the democrats are so hypocritical this year. If the rallying cry is "Anyone but Bush" why are they picking on Nader? Nader is clearly not Bush, so he'd be someone but Bush, wouldn't he? |

Nader is actually not a bad choice. He covers a broad range of opinions and best represnts a cross section of the American people.
He has been endorsed by both the Sierra Club AND American Conservative. It doesn't get much more inclusive than that. |
