   That's fine too *-(. I have refuted by statement that character is
not THE most important characteristic of a candidate. In the case of George
Bush this is especially true, the man has NO character, or some may say,
has the worst character.  What more else do you want me to refute ?

   Good example. Bush is getting closer and closer to the ideas of Hitler 
and Stalin. Just listen what he says these days. Bush, Bucannon and the 
likes have been accusing people un-American, immoral and so on ever since
the Republican Convention. Character ?  That's the character Bush has been
displaying. Personal intergrity ?  Bush is the wrong person to speak of.
The man has no principle, he does whatever it takes to get re-elected.


   Take a good look at your man again, he doesn't hold the moral highground
as he trys to mislead the American people to believe. He has no character!
