>>
>>1. Stubborn is not Strong.   
>>2. You can't promote the Bill of Rights by violating it.  
>>3. You can't advance democracy by imposing it by force. 
>>4. Brave and Free, not fearful and insecure, are the qualities great
>>presidents inspire 
>>5. 30,000 deaths do not avenge the murder of 3,000 
>>6. Killing terrorists requires precise aim. 
>>7. You cannot protect 300 million rich by frightening 3 billion poor. 
>>8. In the military, Smart is as important as Strong 
>>9. Those who seek liberty through security lose both. Security is the
>>result, not the cause, of liberty. 
>>10. The "Last Resort" should be the last resort.
>>
>>Some say Kerry and Bush are equally unacceptable.  That is a convenient
>>illusion.  Kerry has been an able, smart, capable, thoughtful
>>legislator.  He has demonstrated his heroism by placing his body in the

>>America is a great nation.  We need a fresh opportunity to demonstrate
