John Kerry for President

"In considering the presidential election four years ago, this newspaper noted that the contest came “at a time when the United States enjoys peace, extraordinary prosperity and great influence abroad.”

So much has changed in one presidential election cycle. Today, Americans worry on a daily basis about terrorist threats, a bungled U.S. occupation in Iraq, international disapproval, widespread job insecurity, runaway federal budget deficits and a host of other problems.

The challenges ahead, particularly in defending the United States from catastrophic attacks, call for a national leader with energy, intelligence, focus and determination.

Over the last four years, President Bush has amply demonstrated that he is not such a leader.

The Star believes that Sen. John Kerry, the Democratic nominee, presents American voters with a far better alternative for the next four years."

3. This is great! The Star and local media has become..............

increasingly conservative over the last 6 years. It's good to see that there is still some common sense within the only major daily newspaper in the area.

10. No, they endorsed Gore I believe

But they have gotten even more conservative since then and I thought for sure they would endorse Bush.

Guess Bush isn't fooling all of the people all of the time.....
