Kerry has some skeletons in his closet. He has admitted publicly that he did some awful things in Viet Nam. Some question his anti-Viet Nam protesting when he got back stateside. But, Kerry is much cleaner than Clinton was. I mean jeeze Clinton, although I liked his policies, was just dripping with sleeze. He really was one sleezy character. All politicians have some financial sleeze surrounding them, but Kerry seems to be a straight shooter, especially in comparsion to Clinton or Bush, Jr.

George W. Bush has been the worst President in my lifetime. I lived through the Carter years, not the greatest years for America. At least Carter tried to do the right things for this country. He was sincere in his efforts. Reagan and Clinton, both had the charisma and good economies to make their Presidencies shine. Bush Sr., while not my favorite President, was a lot more socially concious than his son. At least President Bush Sr. went along with some progressive social policy like a hike in the minimum wage, and strengthening the Clean Air Act, etc. Bush, Jr. has done everything he could to benefit the wealthiest in our society and has done absolutely nothing for the average American. These past four years have been a long slow slide from one of the best economies in our country's history to the worst job growth ever. Bush, Jr. has not earned another term in my opinion. He deserves to be canned.
