So Im watching the second presidential debate. I've noticed something.


Bush makes excuses and stirs away from the question.


Kerry makes promises and plans but no evidence of how he's going to do it.








Im still undecided. Discuss.

 

ZZzzZZzzz... vp debate > debate 1 > debate 2

 

The thing I would like to note is that it's hard to present your comprehensive plan for any type of reform into 2 minutes max... Plus introduction and closing.

I'd reccomend checking out http://www.johnkerry.com and look around there...

For example, this is quite satisfactorily in depth to me:

i try not to listen to the promises any candidate makes during an election, because more than likely they're over exaggerating like hell. it's not that they want to lie just to get votes (well, not all the time anyways).. sometimes they intend to keep promises, but their "plans" and such get struck down or picked apart by congress/senate, and then they get blamed for not keeping their promises.

besides, the conditions governing the effectiveness of policies and plans are always changing. so there's no guarantee that what makes sense now will make sense in a year, or even a few months. anyways, i wouldn't listen to "i have a better plan than he does" .... "no he doesn't!" .... "yes i do!"

 

:werd: It's ironic that Cheney and Edwards are far more articulate than Bush and Kerry. Edwards is also way more charismatic than Edwards.

 

:ugh:

 

..than Kerry. You know what I mean

 

I think it's a difference of strategy. The Republicans put the charismatic, yet kinda slow one, for the president position while they put the real brains for the VP slot. The Dems put the brains up front and the charisma as the backup....

 

Bush? Charismatic? HUH?!

 

A lot more charismatic than Cheney..
