A vote for Dean is not a vote for Bush |
|
In response to someone who said a vote for Dean is a vote for Bush.
Bush will keep fucking up Iraq with this unilateral Bullshit. Dean will go to the United Nations and build a coalition to set Iraq up with a working government much sooner.
Bush will keep squandering our money and the job opportunities of millions of Americans. Dean will balance the Budget and work with small business to create jobs.
Bush takes a childish sadistic pleasure in the Death penalty. Dean only advocates the Death Penalty in certain circumstances.
Bush will most likely start unilateral wars in Syria, Iran, North Korea and maybe Cuba. Dean will negotiate with North Korea and get help from China in dealing with them.
Bush will reinstate the Draft for his terrible wars. Dean will get the National Guard and reserves called back from Iraq because he will negotiate with the UN for troops.
Bush will not give you health insurance. Dean will.
This is the tip of the iceberg. Don't vote for Nader. He is only in it for himself.

1. Can you imagine Nader negotiating anything? |
|
He's so fine at compromise.

2. It's called progressive for a reason |
|
Greens have to be patient. Use their influence to make a temporary liberal coalition.
ONCE republicans are out of the picture they can do whatever they want and will have A LOT OF POWER to do so.
IF ALL GREENS VOTED for DEMS for the next 4 years, Republicans could be removed from all power.
Then and ONLY THEN, can we see votes like we did in San Francisco - GREENS vs DEMS.
UNTIL THEN, A VOTE FOR GREEN is a VOTE FOR FASCISM

As a guy who voted for Nadir in 2000 and realizes what a foolish move it was, I implore you: PLEASE do not switch parties because your favorite candidate is not getting an endorsement. The fact that I should even have to mention the danger of letting Bush get another four years by voting green is saddening.
Listen now, and remember forever: The political process involves compromise. It sucks, but twas ever thus. We're not going to get a utopia under Dean (or under Kerry or Clark or whoever) but we WILL get another four years of HEll by splitting the Dem vote via some of us voting green. Is that what you really want?
Seriously, people, this is a life or death struggle; don't cut our rope to the future.

5. BELIEVE IT: DEAN WINS NOMINATION -- BUSH WINS ELECTION |
|
If anyone has seen a poll or any scientific study that shows Dean winning a Head-to-Head against Bush, PLEASE POST IT HERE.
The is America, and there are fundamental dynamics in the electorate that will guarantee a Dean disaster in the Generel Election.
Hold the FANTASY. Let's look at FACTS.

6. How about the fact that at this point in the 2000 election Bush |
|
was ahead of Gore by a ton. And how about the fact that in states that have seen a lot of the candidates, independents go for Dean overwhelmingly. Oh, and here's a new Maryland poll showing Dean beating bush 48-41. http://wjz.com/localstories/local_story_344095950.html
