Many of the same old Iran-Contra crowd. doesn't this concern you guys a little? I mean, we know GW Bush is not experienced in foreign affairs and depends on these people for his education. So besides Karl Rove's polling-based decisions and Powell's moderate opposition what else does GW have to go on? What I like about John Kerry is he wont need anyone's advice to know what's what. And in this day and age, a President who cannot be fooled by court jesters is what we need. The buck should stop with the President and we need a President who fully understands the issues, players and likely long-term results of his all-important decisions. We also need someone who will bond with our allies instead of bullying them or alenating them. That has been a real danger ever since Bush's forst European trip where he stressed two things: killing the Kyoto Treaty (which he had promised to sign during the campaign) and instituting Star Wars (SDI) which still has not been proven to eithe work nor have a realistic objective.
