I can well understand one not wanting to vote, we had local council elections and it was very hard to choose, even though you have a phamplet about them, one really does not know them

I know nothing about american politics, so I am staying well out of this debate, I hope the thread can turn around and continue to be a healthy debate though, I am slowly learning a bit more about your candidates, although I do find it all a bit confusing:confused: .

Carole, I'm an american and even I find it very confusing! You are not the only one.

I'll drink to THAT! And I don't even drink!:D

Even though I know little about either candidate, and my opinion does not matter very much, I have to say I would vote for Mr Kerry, why you ask? and I hope most of you do because, he is going to give the go ahead on stem cell research, whereas Mr Bush is not.

This could and would affect my whole family's life, so I can only support this 100 percent, I know this is a controversial subject and I don't wish to change the subject of this thread, but even though I thought it does not matter that much to me who gets in, (being a kiwi,) but in actual fact it could have a big impact on my future and that of my family.

SO GO MR KERRY!!

P.S I have accidentally started another thread on this oops,but if you care to talk about it in more depth you can always go there.

I had told myself I would stay out of the Dog House after dealing with the negativism in the thread about the Presidential Debates. I accidentally clicked on a thread earlier today by Carole that had a subject title which I thought was not political but it was and unfortunately it prompted me to reply. Since I have broken my own vow about staying out of the Dog House I decided to visit this thread.

All that I can say is that I have never seen such expressed hatred in a political election year and I am 57 years old and have lived through and voted in many elections. If you would care to take note of who is starting these threads it is all Kerry supporters. Don't you think that those of us who support President Bush could furnish you with some articles as well? I know I certainly could! I think political chatting has gone to a completely lower level than just discussion. I do hope that once this election is over things settle down because Pet Talk has become a very nasty place. :mad:

I'm as neutral as they come, and, I'm getting crap from both sides. It does seem that the Kerry supporters in here are more vocal about their hatred. But, away from the computer, I've had hatred thrown at me from all sides. It's unbelievable, and, just makes me feel sad that people have room for that kind of hatred in their hearts. I don't hate Bush or Kerry, or any human being for that matter. There are people that I don't like, but, hate is just evil to me. Only bad things stem from that. And, I have had so many Bush supporters that just are so full of hate, the same as I've had Kerry supporters that are the same way. It all sucks.

You're not hearing hate with me, or should I say "reading?" It's more like digust with the way things are now.

I'm not pointing anyone out, so, no worries. :)

He is a dogmatic, "my way or the highway" kind of person.

Which makes sense......

I sure would hate to be 'on the bus' with a driver who keeps saying, "My way or we could drive down this road-or maybe let's just drive the side streets.......Oh, those side streets look packed, let's get back on the freeway........whoa, the freeway is packed......let's just turn around and go home....."

Progress-Such a concept!;)
