My questions concerned more the moderate viewpoints that most Americans have, not the extremist points of view from either party. I would think that reachings from the far left would push people that are, so to speak, in the middle towards the right, much in the same way, that the extremist views of Pat Buchanan effected Republicans in the past. Kerry has his own weaknesses. Is Michael Moore the answer to those weaknesses? Is the timing of Clinton's book the answer to those weaknesses? To me these events seem to be more of a distraction from the importance of knowing what John Kerry is going to bring to the table for the next four years if he is elected. How does the Democratic Party get the public to embrace John Kerry, to bring the fence-sitters to their camp? I would have expected the Democrats to do so by presenting their agenda for America for the next four years. What I see instead is a smoke screen. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I don't see John Kerry, I see Michael Moore, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, the 9/11 comission, the war on terror, etc. Somehow I am missing Kerry's message.
When Bill Clinton ran for president, this was not the case with the Democratic Party. There was a clear message being sent to America. The message was clear and you gained a sense that Bill Clinton was the man to get done the vision that was presented. I don't get that same warm fuzzy feeling this time around. I instead get a feeling of anger and insecurity coming from the Democratic Party.
dabe, why are you "miffed"? Please present your point of view. "I HATE Bush and every stinkin' thing he stands for" That can't possibly be your point of view. George Bush is still an American, a Christian, a father, a husband. He believes in America, he believes he is doing the right thing for America, he has family values. I might mock Michael Moore, by being in the public eye, he like Bush or Kerry will be mocked by someone at some point, they know that and accept it as part of the package, but I don't HATE Michael Moore and every stinkin' thing he stands for. I am after all just one of the "stupid Americans" as Mikie so affectionately likes to think of us
