Echoing Outside the Walls
The Progressive Blog Alliance replied to
Wizbang's open discussion (challenge) where people could give solid, positive reasons why one should vote for John Kerry. A novel and needed approach. No longer just an echo chamber but facilitating meaningful discussion. Wizbang has a few guidelines for the discussion so read and respond appropriately, but do go add your thoughts.
Here were mine off the top of my head:
I support John Kerry in part because:
His understanding of REAL threats, including the fact that when the US invaded Iraq all that was initially secured was the Oil Ministry and air fields, not
nuclear facilities nor
ammo dumps.
Iraqi Nuclear site Looted This understanding alone elevates my trust that he actually has safety in mind, not domination. (I added some links here because between the time I posted this to Wizbang and now, the original link became a "register only" link, go figure)
He's actually read the Constitution. plays it straight with people instead of invoking code words, i.e. Dred Scott, and will protect the separation of church and state instead of invoking radical right wing agendas nor skewing the courts toward radical agendas. His agenda is to protect the Constitution as written by the founding fathers.
He won't be trying to run the country as a business with Enron-like creative financing lining the pockets of the CEO's and raiding retirement plans.
Norml's
2004 Presidential Candidate Report Card though revised from an earlier report, still show Kerry's position more inline with the majority opinion of Americans.
The support and renewed respect he will gain from the international community will bolster cooperation and intelligence sharing, most of which is lost now.
Give them something to think about!
