I do not aim to prevent Bush's re-election. Where did I write that?

I said I want him to be more conservative, thats a big difference.

You have a choice: Bush as he is, or Kerry.

If you are not voting for Bush, you are helping Kerry get elected.

Like many, I was brought up in a "democrat" household. In 2000 I voted for Bush after paying very close attention to what was being said by Gore, et al.

I am now a registered Independent in the state of California---and proud of it (being independent and a Californian)

In 2004 I will vote for GWB for the simple reason that we are in a war, a war more insidious and dangerous than we have faced since the birth of our country.

On a side note I believe that Al Queda's strings are being pulled by the former Soviet Union.

This is War and so far I see no reason to elect Kerry to continue prosecution of this war which may last another ten years.

As an independent and former democrat, I do not see republicans as "the answer" to returning America to its constitutional roots. I believe for the most part that both parties are crumbled heaps of power mongering. That being said I can only hope that GWB will steer the country in the right directions. So far on his domestic agenda there are many areas that I vehemently disagree. But despite those issues, for now GWB has my vote.
