An Observation about Kerrys Plane
Not to stir the pot or anything but the below link is to a photo of Kerrys plane before he selected Edwards for VP....if you look at the tail you'll notice that the stars are RED WHITE and BLUE

But if you look at the photos from the below images the stars are All RED....Anyone know why the change

2. The first one looks photoshopped
Perhaps they used the first one as a promo, but it was really a simulation by the airline painter company.

9. Well I understand seeing some things.
Bush used to check and see if his pants were done up when he ran and it drove me nuts. Barbara must have finally talked to him and he has bow legs. I also have to much time on my hands. I once sat and watched a show of Kerry walking through a small city in NH that I had spent a lot of time in. After watching him I really liked him. He was a man who was interested in things. He was very NE type so I wondered how people would like him. He is very open for someone from NE. We people from NE tend to rub people the wrong way. I lived in the South and that saying nice things and not meaning it is hard on us people. I think that is why Bush does so well in the South and they do not like NE type. In the South every one ask you over and hopes you do not come and in NE you are asked very few times but they mean it.

5. Why do you think this might "stir the pot"?
It's another airplane (they didn't have any baby blue on hand) ;)

6. Well, they did repaint the plane right before the Edwards announcement.
I suspect the tail change just looked better to whoever designed the new logo.

BTW, why does it matter???

7. Red Star = Communism symbolism
the campaign is probably covering all of their bases. Not because anyone with an ounce of sense would consider those red stars anything other than graphics on a plane but you know how the Rove machine works. Kerry's hidden symbolism, he's a commie.

12. Duh! Periwinkle is not a color associated with the American flag.
Edited on Sun Sep-26-04 10:34 PM by The Night Owl
The Kerry campaign probably had whoever painted the plane get rid of the periwinkle star. Of course, having two red stars and one white star or one red star and two white stars does not make sense either, so the Kerry campaign probably decided on 3 red stars, which looks better than what was there previously.
