New York is primarily Democrat territory so I don't really expect Bush to have an overwhelming appeal to Knick fans...although some people on this board are not from NY...

NY is not 90 to 10, though, like this poll was when I first replied.

Jessica Simpson!

I basically see Kerry as the lesser of two evils.

Bush was dumb-founded when he learned that America was under attack on 9/11. He went on to read "My Pet Goat" for 7 minutes after the second plane crashed into WTC... He is the President of the most powerful nation in the world! and yet he sat there not knowing what to do, indicisive, lost, waiting for someone to tell him what to do.

I truly believe that Kerry would have reacted differently - like the soldier & commander who once lived and fought through hell.

Bush = The worst President in the American history

Look, I think you don't get it.

I'm questioning George Bush's character and his quality as the commander in chief, who influences the lives of millions in USA and around the world, including YOU. He's like this bus driver I saw once who got lost while driving from NYC to Buffalo but pretended that he knew what he was doing - only it took us 14 hrs to get to Buffalo (as opposed to 8hrs) totally screwing us up.

If you wanna talk about what Kerry did after returning from Vietnam, fine. I think he, like any American, has the right to question the government and voice his opinion. He can burn his medals, and he has the right to be ashamed of the fact that he killed other human beings and that so many Americans lost their lives for ---??? WHAT? WHY?

I'm not a soldier nor was I ever in a war-zone. So I can only imagine what it's like to be in one. I do know and spoke to people who actually fought in WWII, Vietnam, Papua New Gunea, and Iraq. My ex-boss Steve Hayashi, a Japanese-American, actaully survived 2 campaigns in Vietnam. At one time, his entire battallion except 3 guys was wiped out by the Vietcons. He became a succesful business man after a while, but he never talked about Vietnam except when he was pissed drunk. And you could tell that the experience still affected him a lot. Of all people, these guys like Steve Hayashi and John Kerry and the man and women serving in Iraq have the right to burn thier medals and criticise the government.

On the otherhand: Is George Bush, who hid behind his powerful daddy and avoided military service, qualified to send America's men and women to a war-zone?

And, no, I have not seen Fahrenheit 9/11 yet. I live in Japan now and it is not yet released. But I do know what's going on in the world.

"I'll just move to Canada."?????

BigSm00th, you're nothing but a WHINER if you don't vote but only complain. If you enjoy your freedom, it's your civil duty to vote. Or are you a high-school boy? Otherwise, you have no right to comment of the subject. Wow, you're like George Bush who avoided his duty but...

I agree with Bigsmooth. I don't really like either of the candidates. I don't trust either of them, and with them being 2 poor candidates, I think this is a very dangerous time in America. But like Matt said, I view Kerry as the lesser of 2 evils. At least he has regard for human life.

I didn't see F-9/11, but anyone who is basing their voting decision on that movie needs to get their heads checked. Wasn't it made by someone extremely liberal? In that case, of course he's gonna try to make Bush look really bad, when in fact, Kerry can be just as bad. But I like Kerry over Bush, b/c he seems to have regard for life, and other small things, that should be important, like the environment, and even the economy. The only reason the economy may be doing better now, is b/c of the war, which is sad when you come to think of it.

This probably sums up my views on this entire disaster:

"At least he has regard for human life." Yet here's a candidate who supports abortion.

Bush is all pro-life, but is pro-death penalty.

It just doesn't make any sense, where have all the leaders gone?

nobody support abortion. They support the woman's right to choose. There is a difference.

Bush terrifies me plain and simple. The UN is set up for reason, yet Bush invades Iraq with no due process. Incidentally we never did find any WOMD or bio threats.

Bush has done everything he can to make sure corporations can make more $$$, including making it easier to outsource MY JOB (I work in IT) to India or wherever people consider $40 a week a great deal.

This and he has no regard for the environment.

Essentially I cant think of one moment or thing he has done in 4 years that makes me think this guy should stay in office.

Here's a little song I found on the race...

this one goes right to the movie... its a classic

this IS a classic.

Plain and simple for me - Bush is just plain DUMB. From there you get horrible policy, bad planning, and eventually a worse off America.
