I don't know. I do now that Bush has been protectionist. Kerry might be more, less, or the same.
I apply the same reasoning to politians I can actually vote for up here. I vote for the new guy (multiparty system) depending on thier platform. But I simply won't vote for the incumbant if they lied to me even once.
Bush has been protectionist towards Canada (and we are a country that the US even has a free trade agreement with), so I am against him (as well as for other reasons).
To quote Runsfeld, it's a known known.
Kerry might be.
It's an known unknown.
