I voted for bush in 2000.

I will not be voting for him again. Though I'm not really thrilled with John Kerry, I think anybody will be better than Bush, so I guess I'm voting for Kerry this year. Though I live in California, it won't make any difference, California almost always votes democratic.

can't it be neither?

I'd move to some remote part of the world to escape all the crap that we put up with, but I wouldn't be able to drive my 240 in Antarctica...

i vote turboka37 for 2004. actually ill take bush. i dont think its fair or possible to find which candidate you like better because of all the lies and commotion from the media. plus i dont really judge decisions that the president makes because we dont know 1/4 the information that he does when he makes the decisions. just think of all the stuff that the government has to keep secret but would like to tell us that justifies alot of their decisions or mistakes. plus he is republican which i hear means better for economy.

IMHO neither is a particularly attractive choice, but I think Kerry is by far the lesser of two evils.

An ecconomy is based on money. Rich people have the money, they get better treatment, to stimulate the money, makes it better for everyone.

the rich aren't getting richer and the poor aren't getting poorer. Bush has given more tax brakes to the poor and middle class and he also added a new free prescription plan for people who can't afford the medicine that they need. bush has done wonderful things to help the poor, which i disagree with i don't think people with money should have to pay for people who don't wont to work or can't cuz they have no education. Bush is the best pres since reagan

No need to justify your choices, let's just see how it pans out...

Changing a Democrat to a Republican is like curing an alcoholic... They have to WANT to change. :)

I don't want an indecisive President, so I'm voting for Bush. I personally think Bush has more charisma, even though most of what he says is stupid. I got jury duty on Monday :( I can't work.

Yeah, companies make billions and yet they still ship all their jobs to India for cheap labor, and eventually they will move to the phillipenes because it's even cheaper there. That's ok, I mean, americans don't need jobs. Thats ridiculous. And don't say its not happening, I work in the IT sector, and I think we are one of the hardest hit sectors of the professional market.

Bush supports offshoring of jobs, so I don't support Bush. simple as that. I was a lot dumber 4 years ago when I voted him in.

Americans may not want those jobs that are being offshored, but I GUARANTEE you they'd rather do those jobs than not have a meal at the end of the day. If the economy was in great shape and almost everybody had decent jobs, then there is nothing wrong with offshoring, but the economy is in shambles right now. This is the worst possible time for corps to take perfectly good jobs for Americans and give them to other countries just so they can make a couple extra bucks.

:withstup

And btw...Bush is not the cause of the poor economy, Clinton is. If anything, Bush has brought the economy back up since he became president. It's not like one day Bush becomes president, the next day the economy sucks, and it's Bush's fault. It's the person before him.

All I know is, I've never voted before, but I'm going to this year. If Kerry becomes president, I'm moving to Japan. I'm not joking either....watch.

bah, there's no choice for "neither" or an option to add a candidate.

If so, I'll vote for Mike Bloomberg; he cut the "fat" outta city bureaucrats to make NYC in good financial shape for the future... let him do the same for the rest of the nation...

Vote for Bush so we can finish the job, kill the enemy, bring freedom to the oppressed.

Nobody else will stay the course.

Lets put it this way--if bush it taken out of the presidency, all we've done in iraq will be for nothing because we all know kerry will pull out. I agree with smithsr, we've lived with bush for this long, I'm sure we can handle another term.

who gets the biggest tax breaks? The tax breaks given to the poor arent as large as the ones given to Bush's wealthy friends, which was intentional. Now in order to balance the favors he gave to his friends, Bush has to make major budget cuts to a lot of programs such as: Head Start, the early-childhood education program for the poor; The Women, Infants and Children nutrition program and other programs that Bush has been touting on the campaign trail.

I for one want to see our troops shipped home, they are fighting a war they themselves probably question. What have we done in Iraq? We haven't done anything. But Cheney & Co. have done a few things: Make billions off the reconstruction phase and are preparing it to be a military stage. I am dumbfounded at what other business we (the U.S.) has in Iraq. The 9/11 comission has already discredited any links between Bin Laden and Hussein (bc there werent any to begin with), so what excuse is left?

Again can someone clear up this economy thing for me? Are we talking affluent economy or poor economy??

And ChukiDori's right on the money! Bush is for outsourcing, even though a good chunk of America's working corp is unemployed. If Bush gets elected, the youth of today might find it a tad difficult to find a decent paying job in the U.S. let alone their city!

Bush and Reagan cut taxes for the poor more than Clinton or Carter ever did. Class warfare is for idiots -- can we get back to discussing real issues, like war?

Im voting for either George Bush or Michael Badnarik.

Wow, and Kerry is against offshoring jobs? What's he gonna do, ban it? Raise taxes on companies that send jobs overseas, encouraging the companies to leave the US entirely? Maybe he should ask his wife, who holds a significant share of Heinz, to push for bringing ketchup factory jobs back to the US.

No one SUPPORTS jobs going overseas -- thats like saying anyone who is against the war on drugs is a crackhead, or anyone pro-choice on abortion is out killing babies, or anyone who wants looser emissions testing -wants- to kill trees and spotted owls.

As a libertarian-leaning voter, what I support is a government that stays the hell out of my wallet and the hell out of my bedroom.

If most of the stuff he says is stupid and you think it's stupid but you are still going to vote him in? What does that make you then?

Bush is probably the worst president in the last 20 years. We should wote him in because the economy sucked for 3 years and few months, but now it's on the upswing so lets vote him in YAAY!!! Even though he didnt get the most votes the 1st time. This govt is also pro censorship, they are out of control since the superbowl, I wish we were more like the Europeans, if you dont like it then dont fuking watch it instead of deciding for me. FUK BUSH!!
