Why/why not should your vote sway?, Reasons for voting. Options

For example, the way Kerry prances around bragging about his three purple hearts, when in reality the first was for a piece of shrapnel the size of a rose thorn...

The second one was when he got hit with rice that exploded on a Sampan.

The third was when his buttocks got knocked against the Pilot House of his boat.

And he's proud to have requested purple hearts for such minor injuries, none of which required any loss of duty time nor hospitalization.

I don't think Kerry's (or Bush's for that matter) war record should make someone vote either Democrat/Republican this year, and I don't think either candidate should make it a point to throw it out into the public as if people should vote for that reason.

Any other's you guys can think of?

he is a cowboy who gets things done, he is like our founding fathers.

Only whereas cowboys and founding fathers treated government as our biggest enemy, George seems to think it should be your friend. The last cowboy-ish act in American history, The Sagebrush Rebellion in Nevada, Idaho, Utah, and other Western States. This was in the Early 80s and was supported by Ronald Reagan and his secretary of the interior, James Watt. However, it was opposed by Vice President Bush, as well as our current Bush. Osama Bin Laden gets things done without other people's approval too. Is he a cowboy or a founding father?
