Seldom do Americans have a presidential election that hinges on foreign policy. This is one of those times, and on this matter we cast our vote for John Kerry.

This page has other reasons to support Kerry. We agree with him on affirmative action, the right of abortion and his opposition to a federal marriage amendment. He opposes oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. We support his tough stand against the domination of the media by large conglomerates. In clear language, Kerry has said he would appoint FCC commissioners opposed to loosening controls on media giants. We are less enthusiastic about some other things, like his class-warfare rhetoric and his promises of expensive new programs.

All of these issues have been swept aside by war.

Key quotes:

His [George Bush] reason was to protect the United States from chemical, biological and nuclear weapons. When war was imminent, the weapons inspectors said Iraq didn't appear to have any such weapons. Bush ignored them. As it turned out, they were right.

Terror is a tactic, not an opponent. Al-Qaida is an opponent; a war with al-Qaida makes sense, because al-Qaida attacked us. A "war on terror" is not clear, either as to its target or duration.

Imagine Bush on TV next year, saying we had to invade another country. Could anyone trust him? That may be the best reason for supporting John Kerry.
