I'm going to wait and see who comes up in each party. My biggest concern at the moment is not Bush himself, although I can complain for hours about him. I don't liek the administration overall. I see Cheney, Rumsfeld, and especially Ashcroft as the biggest problems with the current government. I don't lie the fact that Cheney is tied to, and seems to be seeing profit from, nearly every corporate accounting scandal and bankruptcy. I disagree with Rumsfeld on a lot of issues on policy and how we should be going about doing things with the military. The person who I fear the most in the world today is not any terrorist or leader of a rogue nation, it's John Ashcroft. He contradicts previous statements he's made if it is in his interest at the present (example: saying that Oregon should have no right to have a euthanasia law because Fed. government officials oppose it, while he argued in the past that the Federal government should have no right to force schools to desegregate against the wishes of local and state governments.) He is taking every opportunity he can to get more power and remove civil rights, doing stuff like asking Congress for the power to revoke a person's citizenship if he feels it is necessary in order to be able to treat subjects of investigation as non-citizens or enemy combatants.

I'll vote for whoever I feel represents me best.

I'm interested to hear some elaboration on that. What about him do you like? If you think you're going to get a lot of heat for something, supporting your argument is the best way to cool it down. We make sure that everyone keeps their posts repsectful, even in heated arguments, so don't be afraid to come out and speak your mind.
