what does Kerry stand for?

[Holden McGroin]

How about this Gunslinger, from a Kerry speech:

My pledge – and my plan – is for 10 million new jobs in the next four years.

This is a realistic plan.  I won’t tell you that we can bring back every lost industry or protect every current job.  But my plan will enable our economy to create jobs and keep more good jobs here in America.  It offers a long-term strategy to win our economic future.  We won’t do it through government make-work, but by making our economy work so that businesses put Americans back to work.

I will set out the details of this economic plan in the weeks ahead.  I’ll focus on raising American competitiveness:  

-- Spurring the growth of new industries like the broadband technology that will dominate the future.  

-- Lowering health care costs that put American businesses at a competitive and price disadvantage.  

-- Making sure our children have the education and our workers have the training and skills they need.  

-- And lowering energy costs which burden businesses and consumers and creating half a million new jobs in renewable fuels to make America energy independent of Mideast oil in ten years.  

When I googled "Kerry Platform" the first hit was this one:

 Kerry Unveils One-Point Plan For Better America:
  Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John Kerry outlined his one-point plan for a better America: the removal of George W. Bush from the White House. "If I am elected in November, no inner-city child will have to live in an America where George Bush is president," Kerry said, addressing a packed Maize High School auditorium. "No senior citizen will lie awake at night, worrying about whether George Bush is still the chief executive of this country. And no American—regardless of gender, regardless of class, regardless of race—will be represented by George Bush in the world community."...    

But that disqualifies itself according to your discussion rules.

What percent Kerry? LOL.

What we will get is 100% George W Bush.

Nice work Holden....

Pretend to answer Gunslinger's question by pasting a wall of nothingness, making it seem like there's nothing to the something.

But no... you were sincere... and this was the best representation of Kerry you came across. Chyaa...

It's pretty nifty the facade of non-biasedness some cling to. Pissed me off about Toad, for example.

I sure as hell am biased. I won't pretend to be otherwise. The attempts like the one ya just saw above is, I hope, not fooling anyone.

only because it's meaningless.  

Paraphrase:  If I'm elected George Bush will no longer be president

Means nothing to me as a voter.

As far as the other quote you posted those all sound like good things but I'd like to know how he's going to do it.

It was from Kerry's website: a direct quote from one of his speeches Nash, blame him.

The joke was from the Onion, and really was the first hit.

[GRUNHERZ]

Kerry will be a great president because he was great US senator!

Oh wait, thats not true..

Real tough it would be to find some obtuse paragraph on the Bush website and present it as, like, some kind of concrete strategy, representative of his platform.

Who cares if it came from Kerry's website? There's gotta be 60 thousand words on it. You telling me it just so happened that you picked out a weak 60 words of it? And not intentionally so?

[Holden McGroin]

I picked out a proposal to develop 10 million jobs and acheive energy independance, and that's weak?  

As Kerry recently reiterated his support for going into Iraq, I figured the "It's the Economy, Stupid" strategy still had some tread left on the tires, especially since Bush's term had a net job loss.

So it should be easy for a guy like you to tell us what Kerry stands for. It takes guys like you to tell us, because Kerry wont.

Your implication is that Bush is not any of these.

I can understand how having stances that appeal to a majority of Americans may look like his stances are designed appeal to a majority of Americans.

But uh.... what exactly is wrong with advocating for the positions that that majority of Americans hold? Isn't he supposed to represent you? Isn't that the way democracy ideally should be?

Welcome to the fringe, Nuke.

Majority?
Are you useing agian? I hope not.
