Even if Bush and Kerry Have the Same Position on Iraq
Kerry is the better choice, and here's why.

If there is a stronger commitment by the U.S. in Iraq in 2005, which includes additional troops and a draft....

Who do you think can get away with it?

Assuming that neither man can get the other party to support him on anything after this bitter election.....................

Can we count on the Republicans to reign in George Bush and pull their support for this escalation in the war which will be disastrous to us all........................

Or do you think the Democrats are more likely to withdraw their support for President Kerry if he decides to go down this dangerous road...........................

My money is on us. I love John Kerry, but if he decides to act like Lyndon Johnson, I'm not afraid to treat him like Lyndon Johnson.

I'll bet on us.

1. I think Kerry will get us support from our allies, and help us get out

sooner. Unfortunately we cannot leave the country in such a mess. I feel more like we should anyways everyday , but I know better. Also I believe that Kerry will have a better response from the Iraqi people themselves. I think they trust Bush as much as we do. They know what we were after, and the military bases are there to prove it. I also think that if Bush stays in we will have more wars. There will be a draft that we may never get rid of. If people really think there isn't any difference between Bush and Kerry they are fools.
