johnkerry.com had all the policy issues listed in detail. Kerry was right on every single issue. Of course even since last year the problems Bushies have created have grown worse, especially the Iraq War and outrageous deficits.

Who is going to pay off 7 trillion in new Bush debt? That is the real question.

The other big question is how do we get off oil permanently withint 20 years? And off Arab oil within 10 years? Bush-Cheney want us to be slaves of big oil. Kerry had a real plan to start changing all that.

Clinton's failure to grasp the opportunity to unravel increasingly organized extremists, coupled with Berger's assessments of their potential to directly threaten the U.S., represents one of the most serious foreign policy failures in American history.

Why did clinton ignore terrorism?

Richard Miniter's account of clinton's utter failure to combat terrorism provides a clue. (LOSING BIN LADEN: How Bill Clinton's Failures Unleashed Global Terror)

The answer was inadvertently if somewhat obliquely provided by Madeleine Albright at the cabinet meeting that would decide the disposition of the USS Cole bombing by al Qaeda [that is to say, that would decide to do what it had always done when a "bimbo" was not spilling the beans on the clintons: Nothing]. Only Clarke wanted to retaliate militarily for this unambiguous act of war.

According to Albright, a [sham] Mideast accord would yield [if not peace for the principals, surely] a Nobel Peace Prize for clinton. Kill or capture bin Laden and Clinton could kiss the accord and the Peace Prize good-bye.
