Leon, I support kerry for a number of reasons. One is his plan to roll back the tax cuts on people making over $200k/year (bush's claim about this destroying small business is bs). To have initiated this tax cut when he did was a disaster - imagine if you ran a business and decided to increase spending at an astronomical rate while VOLUNTARILY cutting your revenue stream deeply. Job growth is very slow and shallow, mostly low-end jobs, and any real growth in income for the middle class has been gobbled up by higher costs.
And as Butch points out it is suicidal ego for the US to think it can wage a war on terror without the rest of the Western nations involved in a truly combined effort to combat terror. Right now we're essentially going it alone. i think Kerry can change that and I don't think bush can or even wants to.
