We need a green or indi president to have any real change. We need someone outside of the influence of corporations, espically war contractors. Republicans are powerless to stop their leadership, Democrats can't muster any kind of counter attack. We need someone unexpected to enter the ring and show everyone how it's realy done. Could Gore have done that back in 2000? It's entirely possible. He is a brilliant man and forward thinking. Had 9/11 even happened while Gore was on watch (which it might not have), we would have seen a completly different response. Gore strikes me as someone who would work with as many of our allies as possible. Can you imagine if 9/11 would have brought the world together instead of splintering it apart? That'd be an interesting reality to live in. I wasn't old enough to vote in the 2000 election, but I probably woud have voted for Gore. Probably.
Who is more trust worthy? Clinton lies about nailing the fat chick vs. Bush lies about secret wire tapping of Americans, he lies about reasons to go to war with another country that was not a danger to the US in any way, shape, or form, and he lies about Iran developing nuclear weapons. Jee...whos' lie(s) hurt more people? Who's lies rape our constitution? Who's lies kill innocent civilians? Who's lies are headed in the direction (if not already arrived at) a police state?
I know Clinton wasn't perfect. There were some botched military operations, and some people did die, but he never led us to war. Clinton's lies were more like that of a teenager caught cheating on his girlfriend. "What? I wouldn't touch her!"
