He's only human, sure, mistakes like clinton made are human. But starting a war is NOT a mistake which we just should forgive because *he's only human*. The last 4 years have been a disaster. I don't see how you could possibly choose this guy.
Check this site: http://www.electoral-vote.com/
It has up-to-date statistics on the elections and it looks like bush is going to loose with a majority of the votes (he was 1% ahead in the last polls). Anyway, I won't be able to vote since I am dutch, but I am sure going to vote away the governement who supported the war in Iraq here in a couple of years
.
And btw: why the hell do you let what your parents vote diside what you will vote. Start thinking 4 yourself

Im rooting for bush but im not real confident in my choice. I dont know what to beleive. I hear one say he did this and the other denies it.
But when i got to the polls i saw that there were like 12 other parties running for prez. I thought what was i missing? I only heard of one of them. Maybe i would have wanted to vote for one of the others but i had no idea that they existed. I wish i would have known about them in order to make a truly informed decision.

True (mostly), but that doesn't mean you should vote X because your parent vote for X. My parents vote something entirely different then me. The argument, because my parents vote for X I'll vote for X is just lame, start thinking yourself.
Oh yeah, what does it matter if you vote 4 a thirth party. It wouldn't matter anyway cause only one of the 2 major candidates will win. No matter what you vote. That's the major disadvantage of a district-based voting system (besides being really undemocratic). Something most European countries don't have.

I knew bush was going to win because the major concern for the many americans is terrorism. Not the economy, world image, or any of that. Bush is the one that offers those people more comfort (than Kerry) when it comes to this issue. Kerry is regarded as soft (being a left winger) who cannot handle the tough issue of terrorism.
I think that's why Bush won.
I think it is not so good for the world community. Bush is very narrowly focused on America and that actually reflects many american mindsets right now. They are scared and that fear makes them inwardly focused.
One good thing though, this is Bush's last term...
