What Are We Talking About?
It is astounding that so much time, money, and effort has been spent examining and/or distorting what George W. Bush and John Kerry did 35 years ago, when this election should boil down to a simple referendum on Bush's first term.
The Bush camp has fully controlled the campaign agenda. Of course, this campaign agenda has neglected to talk much about the debacle in Afghanistan and Iraq other than chest-thumping generalities.
John Kerry should inititate and insist on a debate about 1) Bush's foreign policy and use of military forces; and 2) his economic policy of stimulus through tax rate reductions. Anything less from Kerry is a disservice to our country and voters of all persuasions.
