why bush?

As a non american, I thought that after the last four years there was no way Bush would be re-elected. I am not sure why I thought this way, perhaps because all the americans I know are young liberal people like me , perhaps because I watch the daily show or maybe because I just come from a more liberal country.

In all seriousness, why did you vote bush? I don't understand.

because the young liberals like you cant be bothered to vote here in America... Deny it all you want but the polls dont lie.

Therein lies your answer.

Yeah, as someone who has only lived in blue (or swing) states, the country seems like it should have gone to Kerry. But there are those deep Red states that are quite different, it's almost like another country with some of them.

Young people as a whole don't vote very much. Liberal or not, the stats seem to be the same, at least as far as I can tell.

I am an American and I can't understand it either. People are like sheep I guess. There are a lot more conservatives in this country that I thought. We really are moving a lot more to the right.

Polls do lie, statistics don't. Here at Penn State, we had seven times the turnout of 2000. Young people did vote in significantly greater numbers, the problem is so did the religious conservatives making the young vote as a percentage of the total vote stay the same.

Try driving through Cleveland. It goes like this: pollution, abandoned factory, house on stilts, condemned building, so on....
People in Cleveland take 20 mile busrides to work for $6/hour in the suburbs and neighboring counties.

Therein lies your answer.

Colorado 1,011,378 votes for Bush, 883,021 for Kerry
California 5,427,055 for Kerry, 4,403,495 for Bush
Georgia 1,863,367 for Bush, 1,289,587 for Kerry

With your response California should have been 100% Kerry and Georgia 100% Bush. Why Bush? Because the democrats nominated the most liberal voting senator they could find and even those fed up with Bush did not want someone witht hat voting record in the White House.
 
As odd as it may seem, Bush is more to the center than Kerry. I am not going to say Bush is a moderate, but when compared to Kerry he is more moderate. Therefore does appeal to a wider audience.

I voted for Bush. I'm also an athesist. I also live in Ohio. I just happen to prefer lower taxes, growing economies, and making sure that anyone who has the possibility of making or aquiring any kind of bomb or weapon that could be used against me or my country is taken down.

As for the relegious influence Bush has, I look at it this way: Bush hears a voice in his head, and goes with it. Kerry hears the voice in his head, and questions it. I prefer anyone that doesn't argue with the voice in his head, and end up losing to it.

Yep. Only smart, educated people live in blue states, whereas only the incest-loving red-necks live in the red states. Why else are they red?

Woo hoo! That's just great! I feel better now that people like you that thought things through voted the way that you did.

Yes! That's an accurate depiction of the red states.

Thats my point as well 🙂

Evangelical Christians? :cookie: Coming from an angry man who openly stereotypes Bush voters and ignores the actual fact.

 
that does seem pretty true, doesn't it? when i look at all the states that voted for bush this time, i associate them with uncivilized rednecks, country hicks, and religious fanatics. when i look at the kerry states, i associate them with intelligence, and places that are helping this country move forward.
 
We don't want your Socialist type government here. The farther we can stay from that path, the better. The people crammed like sardines in the urban areas want more government involvement, like rapid transit, rent control and ever more social programs, like social security and national health care. They have NOTHING in common with the rest of us, and we don't want to fund their money pit programs.

The top priority of the Federal government is our nation's security. Without that, there's nothing left to argue about. Fortunately, a little better than half our voters have their priorities straight!
