Let me address your post in brief bullet points that you can understand:

* has lied to us repeatedly--

Let me name a few Kerry lies--He committed war atrocities, he actually earned that first purple heart which were caused by cat scraches from friendly fire and he never spent day 1 in a hospital. We aren't paying enuff in taxes and he and his rich wife paid the same tax rate as a schoolteacher...15% last year, he is an avid hunter.. he has been seen hunting once ever...and that was during the last 2 years...he is appalled at people driving big cars and then claims the SUVs his family owns are out of his control. I could go on for hours about this guy...but you believe what you want to believe. By the way, you really got me with that Chearleader comment.

*is bankrupting our treasury,

Mandatory spending for social programs total some 1400 billion dollars per year growing at 7% per year. The President has no control on these expenses growing at over 140 BILLION a year. Discretionary spending is growing FLAT which the president has some control over. But if you like welfare programs, stop dinging the President for them for thats is whats causing the deficit.

* serving the super-rich and polluters

I view the Federal Government as the super rich of today. And if you think that central Government are somehow innocents, don't forget the victims of Rwanda, Germany, China, Rwanda and Cambodia. The Feds take in revenues of 2 trillion dollars and then arrest citizens with no criminal history for exercising their God protected inalienable rights redundantly spelled out in the 2nd Amendment.

*was a coward

He flew fighter aircraft for the military. The actuarials alone show the short life expectancy for anybody flying military jets back then. That is no safe business period and not only that being in the guard his unit was subject to transfer to Southeast Asia at anytime.
