Did you know that George W Bush was the second choice of Americans..?

[kentuck]

to be the president of the United States ? In fact, Albert Gore got a half-million more votes from the people of this country. Just thought you might want to know this little fact when the Repubs bring up their little lie about Edwards being the "second choice" of John Kerry for the VP spot.. :)

1. That might be a consideration.

Another thing to throw in their faces.:-)

2. Actually, he was a LOT lower down on the list

but the choice was limited to only one Democrat.

3. Talk about 'sloppy seconds'...and McCain has denied being

approached to be VP?? so where did this rumor come from?? ROVE ???

4. And talking of second choices....

I think it is interesting that Kerry placed second in the NH REPUBLICAN primary, garnering more votes than the margin of victory for the Chimp in 2000.....

5. Yes, but did you know GH Bush WAS the 2nd choice of Reagan?

Reagan's 1st choice was Bob Dole, but he turned him down.
