I'm glad he won over Kerry. Kerry said he would have pulled out of Iraq. That's just a Vietnam with fewer casualties. Even though staying in Iraq has caused more death, they are slowly [very slowly] making progress. However I'm not saying he is a good choice, just the better one.
Bush isn't completely a moron. Sure, he appears to be, but you don't just get through a Ivy League school. [Expects "daddy was president"] I think it's better that he speaks to the people and not with big words that 3/4 of Americans can't understand.
