5 Days To Go....

"You are not here merely to make a living. You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world. You impoverish yourself if you forget this errand. "

-Woodrow Wilson

So let's talk about hope for the future. Which candidate will enrich help America enrich the world, and by enrich, I do not mean fertilizing the soil with the corpses of thousands of dead troops and civilians. I am talking about which guy will help us recapture the Amercian vision of freedom and democracy. Who has the compass of hope?

Is George Bush? Record federal defecits coupled with record federal spending. Tax cuts on top of it. Waging unilateral war that stretches our military thin, alienates our allies, and makes Americans greater targets? Someone that is a strict Constitutionalist, but wants to write discrimination into that sacred document?

How 'bout John Kerry? Someone that says lets make everyone welcome in America. Someone who can think and react with his decisions as the situation mandates. Someone with the intellegence and ability to listen and reason with others. Someone who understands, like Wilson did, that we cannot do this thing alone. We must work together.
