Why vote for Bush and not Kerry.

First a thanks to Mr. Hewitt for the opportunity for so many to support why it is important to elect George Bush.
I offer some quotes from Thomas Jefferson that I believe President Bush understands while John Kerry does not. I believe that is because President Bush adheres closer to the founders vision, while John Kerry does not understand that vision.

Love your neighbor as yourself and your country more than yourself.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Thomas Jefferson Smith, February 21, 1825

The boisterous sea of liberty is never without a wave.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Richard Rush, October 20, 1820

Whatever enables us to go to war, secures our peace.
Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Monroe, October 24, 1823

T]he flames kindled on the 4 of July 1776, have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism; on the contrary, they will consume these engines and all who work them.
Thomas Jefferson, September 12, 1821

Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us. We cannot endure the infamy and guilt of resigning succeeding generations to that wretchedness which inevitably awaits them if we basely entail hereditary bondage on them.
Thomas Jefferson, Declaration of the Causes and Necessities of Taking up Arms, July 6, 1775

Did you happen to catch Ex-Pres Jimmy Carter on Hardball tonight? He said that America and England could have and should have found a way without war to settle their differences and America would now be free just like Canada and India... as if the Revolutionary War did not send shockwaves all over the world! What a guy.
