The word is "presidential"..
John Kerry looks presidential. George Bush looks like a gas station attendant. John Kerry looks commanding. George Bush looks like a deer in the headlights. John Kerry looks courageous. George Bush looks like a chicken shit. It's all about looking "presidential"...

1. Well, presidential is as presidential does.
And John Kerry does just fine. He is presidential, commanding and courageous. Turning a swift boat directly into enemy fire is a remarkably courageous thing to do.

Even several of the lying swift boat veterans for whatever have admitted in previous statements that John Kerry earned his medals.
That definitely covers commanding and courageous.

And the first debate showed us what a real president looks and sounds like. He is intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable, and has far more integrity than exists in the entire Bush clan.

Two or three years ago, hubby and I caught a few minutes of A Kerry speech on C-Span,(hubby hates politics which is why it was just a few minutes), and I said then that John Kerry would quite possibly be our next president. Truth to tell. :D

2. Imagine a president traveling abroad...
...who doesn't have to hide from the local crowds.

Whoa. Blows your mind, doesn't it?
