I really wonder if alot of the people who support Kerry actually support him because of his ideals, or because he's not Bush. It seems more and more people hate Bush each day because it's the popular thing to do. Mostly people from foreign countries, whenever I hear of foreigners bashing Bush, it's not because they're bringing up Kerry ideals that they support...it's because, hating Bush is popular.
If the entire world would vote for Kerry because he isn't Bush, then that future would be pretty weak. These past few months I've seen people at each other's throats just because they aren't a (Democrat/Republican/Etc). You hear about crap like each side getting personally flamed by extremists because they have a different opinion. All of a sudden, opinions are ok to have as long as they're not for Bush.
I really don't give a rat's behind wether or not Kerry or Bush are in the white house, what I'm concerned about is that political sides have been turned into races, and with that comes political racism. People have been so politically racist about the other side that they'll demean and discredit anyone who isn't with them.
Presidential candidates are supposed to be about who can better the country the most, not what side has the most amount.
How far is this country really going to get if people keep using crap like "Get that red neck out of the white house!" What's that helping? That's an embarassment, not only to yourself but to the entire country as well. Unlike most people, I'm not ashamed of this country because some are fat or from a certain part of the country, I'm ashamed of this country because of the people who discriminate people...because of their political side. That. Is. Pathetic.
Before someone blows up at me due to misunderstanding me and saying it happens on all sides (happens alot on here), I'm directing this toward every side there is, but mainly the Dems/Reps.
