The real debate is: are either of these potential presidents useful? Kerry is less dangerous to both Americans and the rest of the world than Bush, but he's also pretty weak and not likely to rock the boat.

There are lots of issues. But for now think of these two.
the war in Iraq. Bush did not need to do that to protect the US.
The spending of the Bush administration. Bye bye social programs.
Ah, thanks penny. Inhales deeply. Wait. Is this some of the Oxygen from the little house of horrors fun kit? Takes another deep draw. Aw, that hits the spot. Oh, what the hell. If Bush want the Slim Pickens role from Dr. Strangelove, who am I to object.
