    Tris, you are a jealous Canadian that you didn't get your way in the 2000 election, so deal with it. You can't vote in this country, so you don't have a damn say in what goes on outside of telling us your opinion.

    Kerry being in Vietnam...please, he can't even name a correct player that played on the Boston Red Sox.

    He said his favorite player for the Red Sox ever a few weeks ago...next night Dick Cheney was there saying the guy never played for Boston, and god 'ol mighty it was true.

    The guy can't even say a sports player for his favorite team...do you really want him ruling such a great country?

    so you think the guy that should be running the country should know the players for the red sox?

    So people like you are idoits. Your look for the stupidest things in a president. What i'm hearing is you want a president that can throw a football and thats more important then sending your country into a war thats completely wrong.

    And your like 15, you really know nothing of the issue's socal

    I didn't say he has to know who played for them, but if he is going to say his favorite player....at least say it right. It is like me saying my favorite Duck is Mario Lemieux.

    Also, believe me, I know alot more than you think I do, I watch news before I go to school, and at night while going to sleep, I watch MSNBC, and I am in a US Government class at school in which we have lengthy discussions on politics.

    BTW Tris even with all your Bush bashing and other political nonsense you have NOT convinced 1 person to vote for Kerry. Congrats. :laugh:

    I think Tris DOES have a say. Especially on a forum like this. He doesn't get a vote in the election, but he should have a right to voice his opinion. After all, Canada is a good neighbor.

    Personally, I voted for Kerry this morning because I DO think that Bush is capable of being complacent about attacks that would further his career. Whether he DID or not is yet to be determined.

    I have a son in the military right now. I have voted Republican until 2000. I cannot stand idly by while the NEO cons and their fascist ideas take over this country I love.

    You pretty much just said what socal said. Tris can voice his opinion but he (or anyother non-american for that matter) has NO say in our govt whether he likes it or not.

    Well i understand someone from texas voting for their guy, thats a given,

    And i'm not out to change anyone's vote, I just want people to open their eye's on things. Coming from an outside source, and outside view sometimes's help perspective. I honestly think if people could weight both sides without a bias, this election wouldn't even be close.

    I will be VERY suprised if Bush carries Texas. It seems they DO know him.

    I voted Kerry this morning too. Bush is a complete moron. I just think it is BS how he has lost so many jobs here. I know of at least 5 people who have been laid off due to Bush and his sending jobs overseas. The only real weapon of mass destruction is Bush and I hope he gets elected out today.

    No one related to me has lost a job while Bush has been in office... maybe he just treat's us Texan's right because he knows winning our state actually means something. :)

    You're right. If we didn't have the biased liberal media forcing Kerry and anti-Bush everything down our throats on a daily basis, Kerry wouldn't be able to even make it close. Without all of that BS, Bush would win in a landslide.

    The media isn't any more liberal then it is concervative. Thats just the republican excuse that most of their views are wrong. Reporting on soldiers that died in Iraq isn't "liberal", showing the names of the 700+ plus dead soldiers like they did in march isn't "liberal", Showing how american's alies don't support bush's decission to go into iraq isn't a "liberal" opinion, It's news and it's the news of the world.

    Your country has turned into the same country of the 60's, where if you didn't support the Vietnam war, you were automaticlly labelled a communist. That was wrong then and this is wrong now

    Agreed. It is a split really. The wealthier people are gonna kiss Bush's ass because thats who Bush likes to give breaks to. The middle class people who Bush treats like s*it are gonna go for Kerry. Being middle class and seeing close friends lose jobs because of Bush, I hope Kerry wins and kicks the loser currently in office out.

    Umm most middle class people here support Bush. Maybe Chicago's version of middle class is different than Texas' or something. Like I said middle class dont have it bad but with Kerry in office that might be a different subject as I hear he wants to raise taxes...how is that going to get more middle class people jobs?

    i think reguardless of who wins, taxes will have to be raised. Bush has run up a record deficate each year in office and someone's gotta pay it

    Either one fits..... :D

    The ironic thing is that the liberals think the media is kowtowing to the right wing and the right thinks just the opposite.

    What baffles me is that the polls that are being reported show the race too close to call.......

    It's gonna be a landslide baybeeeee.......
