What site are you talking about? You sure as hell are not talking about the one you are reading this message on.
Kerry will not change anything. He currently has the power to try to change things, yet he refuses to use it.
What does that tell you?

His own father is against this adventure in Iraq (said so in his autobiography- he was given the same chance back in 1991 and refused to take it *because* the cost in lives would be higher than worthwhile).
So... because Bush Sr. was against invading Iraq in 1991 (before the Oil-For-Food scandal, mind you), he doesn't support Dubya now?
Well, in that case, I guess John Kerry is a closet Bush supporter:
"I have no doubt, I've never had any doubt -- and I've said this publicly -- about our ability to be successful in Afghanistan. We are and we will be. The larger issue, John, is what happens afterwards.
How do we now turn attention ultimately to Saddam Hussein? How do we deal with the larger Muslim world? What is our foreign policy going to be to drain the swamp of terrorism on a global basis?"
-- John Kerry, November 16, 2001
Now take your faulty logic and willful blindness and go home.
No more faulty logic than you use in your sig line, depending on the CIA for intelligence on Iraq...but I guess the real point is that there is no black&white when it comes to Iraq, only shades of explosions- Bush Senior's favored tactic was to wall Iraq off from the world and wait until Saddam died of old age. Kerry's favorite tactic is to go in with an overwhelming number of troops- far more than Bush thinks we need. Bush's tactic seems to be to maximize profit for his friends in the defense and oil industries while putting our troops in danger.
None of them are the same as my plan, which is to pull out of the middle east entirely and either (a) isolate the United States until such a time that the world returns to sanity or (b) create an artwork in radioactive glass in a 1000 square mile area surrounding Mecca, as a warning to future generations as to what happens when you let a crazy right-wing religious sect have weapons and terrorist training camps.

is whether these Bush relatives benefited from Bush's great-grandfather the Nazi Traitor. All that Nazi money helped make the Bushes that much richer.
You can see quite a bit of the Nazi showing through in Bush, what with the PATRIOT act, disappearing "enemy combatants" without any legal standing whatsoever, ignoring the international treaties of the Geneva Convention, invading another country without just cause, calling anyone who questions the administration a traitor... oooh, I'm gettin' sick.
the election outcome should already be obvious to anyone.
