Question for TRUE Kerry supporters only?
Edited on Fri Jan-07-05 12:05 AM by politicasista
I was listening to Tavis Smiley one morning and he mentioned a question to ask Kerry: Why didn't Kerry join the Congressional Black Caucus and contest the 2000 election? (Tavis was very critical of Kerry and his campaign). Has he ever supported the CBC and Michael Moore for F 9/11? That movie really exposed Bush and the truth. I heard MM said on the Today show was right it is time to get a candidtate that understands everyone's needs and will connect with everyone. Sad, cause Kerry would have made a cool president. Thanks to his pathetic campaign people for the hard work.

1. He didn't contest in 2000 because GORE told him not to! If you want to

blame a senator in 2000, blame Gore! Otherwise move on to a different issue.

2. Apparently Gore told them not to for the
good of the country.

4. Boxer mentioned today that Gore asked the Senators not to
challenge the electors from Florida which was why she didn't and probably why the rest of didn't either. She also said she regrets not doing it now because it was about the voters not Gore.

I've also seen people post that on a Sunday show in 2001, when asked why he (Kerry) didn't object, he and another Senator on the show said that they weren't asked to by anyone.

5. What constitutes a true Kerry supporter?
Is the criteria that you worship him? Or do I qualify because I worked at least 200 hours on the campaign even if I now have criticism?

9. the post asks for feedback from "True" Kerry supporters
I'm wondering if you want my feedback. What is the criteria to determine who is true? Is it about favorable posts, hard work, or either?
