I think Bush sparks a lot of anger in many people. Anger at a system that would allow a person like Gee Wilikers Bush to be nominated for the Presidency. Bush also inspires a lot of fear because he would probably be the dumbest President in U.S. History. If I were a country hostile to the US, I would relish in the thought of President Gee Wilikers Bush.

Just shows how desperate they are, Frank. I'm sure that both candidates aren't completely happy about some of the behaviors when they were 20-35....Remember, it was the 1970's...Some of us thought many things were out of line at that time.

The difference is that Mr. Bush seems to have turned his life around, while Mr. Gore still seems to have the same sort of problems with basic honesty as does Mr. Clinton.

Clinton shook his finger in the faces of the American people, and said he was telling the truth....and has stalled the testimony and/or paperwork on nearly everything that has been asked of him by Congress. Mr. Gore seems to think he wasn't fundraising at the Buddist temple, seems to think it was alright to promise the Russian minister that he would break American laws by not telling Congress what the "agreement" was, and he stands behind Mr. Clinton as a good president.

Interestingly enough, I made many calls to potential voters in the last few days. You can't even imagine how many of them were just SICK of the last 8 years! Serious people are concerned about serious issues, and foreign policy was right near the top of the pile of issues talked about.
