Presidential Campaign-On the road to 2004
Bush is running again. 
Gore said this week he is not running for president.
Al Sharpton is in.
Carol Mosely Braun-still running?
Ummmm, is Bush a "shoe-in"?

my rantings...
Given that the whole of Europe likes Colin Powell more than the Bushes... And since Colin is skrait bonen' owt--and I heard there's talk that Condie might skrait bone owt too... Then NO Bush has to practically Enronize California in order to shave off votes for an election...
I think all of Europe, most of Israel, alot of China ('cuz they are still pissed off when Bush didn't hook up the Longshoremen during their picketting and the US lost trillions of dollars cuz their nice cheap gameboys didn't make Christmas on time...) will be more than helpful than ever donating thru laundered means for Ad space on TV and net wide to MAKE SHO MF's cain count dis time dammit!!!  ...
I'd rather have a lying, wife-cheater, Lincoln bedroom, whitewatered down president--getting his grooove thang and not exhalin' than a war-mongering, nonpeacemaker, close to being the epitome of the antichrist if you've ever read The Revelations cover to cover--And I ain't talkin' 'bout those books those dudes sell at the Potter's House--current Hitler-esque psycho we have in office now... The world is fed up--and he skipped out on Vietnam too!!!
I think his Nielsen ratings are low and quite boring, too... No one wants to joke about him 'cuz they are too worried that the "SS" might knock on their door callin' them a threat to Hoodland Psychiatry--oops I mean Deustchland Finality--Oh, I'm sorry, Homeland Security...
But who, knows the true plan of God... He will come as a thief in the night...

My Perspective
Whether or not Bush will win is dependant upon a number of things. The War in Iraq was a waste, there were no weapons found and that is going to hurt come election time. Second and most important to most Americans, the President has lost major support because of the state of the economy. He still has high approval ratings but various other polls show American dissatisfaction in regards to the economy, and other issues of importance (education, etc.). Bush dosen't "take care of home" and Americans want a more stable country. If the economy improves then there is a strong chance he can win.
Also of importance is who the Democratic Party selects as their candidate. Last election all the candidates were middle of the road and that is what hurt Democrats the most. As a matter of fact Bush took a stand on alot of things (although he was also middle of the road on some issues), they were all against minorities but he took a stand. This election the Democrats need someone who is a strong leader and is willing to take a stand on the important issues (economy, education, security etc.).
Here is the poll about how Americans feel about the state of the country.

****hand clapping***** Yes! You are so right! You know I would love to see Bush go toe to toe with Al Sharpton.lollol
I like the guy from Vermont---Governor Dean... He seems to take a firm stand on issues regarding healthcare, education, and even gay rights. I thought he was pretty articulate... But it is pretty aparent that the American public needs a GOOD, SENSIBLE,INTELLIGIBLE candidate NOW!!!I am SURE that any candidate would be better than Bush. Hey, maybe Sharpton will go to the White House and aptly rename it the Black House. lol

LOL If Sharpton gets into the White House I'm don't know what I would do. I can see the whole name change thing as well!!
Dean is a very strong contender for the democratic ballot. He has a real shot at taking it!!

Not just Dean, etc.
There have been others mentioned as Dem nominees, such as Sen. Kerry, Sen. Edwards and Dick Gephardt. Frankly, Edwards intrigues me. Elections are won from the center, and as a pro-business moderate without any party affiliation, Edwards seems like that centrist that former pres. Clinton actually was.
I'm not a Rev. Al fan, haven't been for 15 years. It's interesting to watch him, but the Dems. need an electable candidate.

I like Howard Dean personally
I'm glad Rev. Al is the race because he's bringing broadening the scope of the Democratic field.
I think Ambassador Braun, Senator Graham, Senator Lieberman, Rep. Kunicich, and Rep. Gephardt need to drop out of the race and support the other candidates.
