Here is my first post.....still shrined in the forum archives.......
http://www.uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?board=5;action=display;threadid=2;start=0There's a LINK to it......and here is the actual post itself.....
I am currently giving my support to Sen. John Edwards. Although, Howard Dean and Dick Gephardt fall closely behind. In many ways, I do not think Gephardt would win. His main concern is for workers rights, and his views toward this may turn away many southern voters. Howard Dean is the fighting Liberal! The man so opposite of President Bush that he would most certainly give Bush a run for his money! But maybe he is...TOO...liberal? Hmm... And plus his remarks concerning the Confederate flag and the south proove that he is very ignorant to how to pull in southern votes. Which brings me to Edwards. Edwards would most certainatly bring in more southern votes than any of the other candidates. He has some conservative views that appeals to the south. I also like some of his views on education, and the War with Iraq (which I commonly refer to as the Gulf War II). I'm surprised that on this poll, I was the FIRST person to vote for Edwards. I hope that some may see what potential he has.
Even my style of WRITING has changed!!!
That was back when I was a newbie....and uncomfortable posting...but not anymore
Look how old that post is.....it mentions the "Confederate Flag" comment that Dean made............ah.......memories....
I especially like the last line in that post. "I hope that some may see what potential he [Edwards] has."
And they never did........
