Kerry's pitch: hope for a new America July 31, 2004 theage.com.au <excerpt>.... There is a large section of the US electorate, not to mention the international community, for whom Senator Kerry's words represent the prospect of a different kind of America to the one being projected by the incumbent administration. Despite attempts by the Republicans to cast him as flip-flop man on policy matters, the Kerry camp is fighting hard to convince Americans that he stands as a credible alternative to Mr Bush. He has developed a platform based on ideas and ideals, both in domestic and foreign policy, that are distinct from those of the Republicans. Perhaps the most significant difference is his rejection of the pre-emptive strike doctrine adopted by Mr Bush, one that has made not just Americans but the rest of the world nervous about America's role in global affairs. <font color=red>Senator Kerry has laid down the challenge; the gloves are off.
