"...The word poor doesn't enter into the political lexicon in Bush`s regard..."

Its technically accurate. I just wanted to use the term "poor" for shock value.

"...Personally, I think Dick Cheney is the most successful of all four candidates..."

Cheney and Edwards are at the $50 million range. Kerry, assuming he did not sign a pre-nup, has half of a $500 million fortune.

I don't know how much actual shock value you created. Probably very little, outside of the emotional pinheads. If you mean that Bush is inferior in overall value to Kerry, Cheney and Edwards, then you're correct. But in the big picture that means very very little at this point. Bush is extremely wealthy. Probabaly in the top 1/10th of 1% percentile of all richest Americans.

If you take away the Heinz ketcup fortune Kerry shares in some fashion with the godess Theraza, JFK is worth less then PrezBush is worth. The point is, this shouldn't even be an issue. The wealth factor won't sway voters in any significant numbers and if you think it will, you don't comprehend American politics very well.

Let's stick to the issues. Kerry and Edwards are liberals and Bush and Cheney are conservatives. Liberals believe governemnt holds all the answers and Bush Cheney believe in individualism of the Amewrican people.
