Kerry, the time has come to report for duty!! NOW

[proudtobeadem]

We are all ready, willing, and able to help in the persuit of a fair election. We the people have spoken, and many more will follow once you lead, we are waiting for YOU!!
Even your horoscope for tommorrow seems to point out the time is now.
(MSN astrology)

Today you must dare to go for what you want, john. After having changed your objectives you will find that your fundamental goals are a lot less complex than your previous ones. Make sure you are doing what you need to be doing in order to be a happy man. If you are not, have you considered the possibility that you are afraid of being happy?

If you are playing it safe in order to run again in 2008 forget about it. People will remember you broke your promise to fight. This is the
simple truth. This is your one and only chance at the Presidency.
It's now or never. I hope you understand this.

[politicasista]

1. Democracy is at stake!

Turn your boat around and save us and democracy. People here are growing extremely impatient.

[jamboi]

30. Everyone go to JohnKerry.com and co-sign on his bill to show support for

him. It will send him the signal that we are still behind him.

[demnan]

2. I'm sorry but Kerry has conceded

You can't count on him to save the day, he gave up. It's up to us to make sure the vote is counted, but don't even count on Kerry to become President even if he wins.

[politicasista]

3. Yes, it is time to move on.

[Twist_U_Up]

13. move on to what ?

we will never have a true democracy again if this is not stopped now

[Pepper32]

41. Good question. I guess more despair.

:eyes:

[Farah]

23. I hope I can speak for many people here when I say that...

I'm not giving up until we see who is inaugurated on Jan 20th

[Pepper32]

42. Well, you spoke for me! n/t

[jamboi]

28. Concession holds no legal standing.Its merely a gentlemanly politeness

Legally he can contest the election just as Gore did after having conceding in 2000.

8. Question...

How's his statement make him a FReeper? Is it because he does not agree with us?

[whistle]

11. Just read the second and third paragraphs...

[proudtobeadem]

16. The second paragraph is the horoscope..

I thought the important part was “today you must dare to go for what you want”
His "fundamental goals" are to do what is right, not just become president, he has always wanted to be president because of a fundamental desire to do the right thing.

Maybe I should have been clear, I was hoping this would become a thread where people would post there letters or pleas to him, not a negative thread.

[whistle]

20. Horoscopes and astrology readings are part of the...

...Nancy Reagan era although I believe that Adolph Hitler set his agenda by them as well.

(Added in edit) Are you also saying that the horoscope used the name "john" in it's text? The proper way to define a quote on DU is place it in quotation marks, clearly source your reference and provide a link where possible, not make it appear as though it is part of your statement.

[proudtobeadem]

25. Link

29. I forgot, also click on "Tomorrow"

[proudtobeadem]

10. Whistle

Are you talking to me? Because if you are, I really don't see what is wrong with what I wrote. It's just a plea for him to step up because now everything is moving forward MSM and all.

[whistle]

19. Yes I am proudtobeadem...

you say: "Today you must dare to go for what you want, john."

I believe that John Kerry has done that throughout his life. Your tone suggests you have bought into the repuke propaganda line of John Kerry as a flip flopper, which he is not. I believe John Kerry has demonstrated over and over that he courageously took and continues to take on issues and challenges in his military services to this country, his protests to a war he believed was wrong, to his congressional investigations and his willingness to run against George W Bush and challenge his policies and actions over the last four years. John Kerry does not lack courage.


you say: "After having changed your objectives you will find that your fundamental goals are a lot less complex than your previous ones."

Proudto', would you care to outline what those goals and objectives are and how they compare to JK's previous ones?


you say: "Make sure you are doing what you need to be doing in order to be a happy man. If you are not, have you considered the possibility that you are afraid of being happy?"

Do you proudto' have a suggestion as to what one can do to be happy? I watched John Kerry in many many interviews, public forums and the live debates. I never witnessed any display from him that suggest he is an unhappy person. Quite the contrary, he appeared to be quite happy where ever he appeared. As for your suggestive question again that John Kerry may be "afraid of being happy", you seem to want to dwell on this issue of courage and I've already covered that above.

I've exhausted by three paragraph post limit.

[proudtobeadem]

21. Maybe you should read reply #11 nt

[proudtobeadem]

22. Sorry, I meant reply # 16

[IAMREALITY]

33. Proud,

Just about everyone else here is completely on board with your post. Don't sweat one poster who took it completely wrong, is totally overdramatizing it, and being way too petty. Your post was fine!

:)

(don't sweat the small stuff)

[proudtobeadem]

34. Thanks, that's what i thought :)

[righteous1]

15. Just to inform you

that the Gestapo was disbanded in 1945. What a presumtuous arrogant person you must be to impune someones motives because you disagree with their opinion. If anyone does not belong here, it's you. This is an open forum with a discussion open to a variety of diverse opinions, and the thought of some obtuse little dictator such as yourself presuming to have a monopoly on the truth really disgusts me

[dand]

5. Kerry took a dive, plain and simple,

The POS sat on millions of dollars of our money, (I sent hundreds of dollars) that could have made a difference, then he broke speed records getting to a microphone to give his concession speech.

I wouldn't vote for him for dog catcher.

[politicasista]

6. That's mean..

very mean.

[delphine]

9. I'm getting tired

of hearing this same bullcrap in every forum.

Kerry gave $40 million to the DNC and other races during the campaign. He has a whopping $10 million left over, and this is from his PRIMARY campaign funds, which he was not allowed to spend after the convention.

Kerry gave the most any candidate ever gave (by a wide margin) and is the ONLY candidate to ever give up his primary campaign funds. I'll wager that the other primary candidates have a total of more than $10 million dollars left in their primary fund caches.

NONE of them were or are obligated to give those funds to the DNC or anyone else. They may (and always do) keep them for another run or for other reasons.

Al Gore held onto about $5 million until AFTER he decided not to run again, in 2003.

If you want to bash Kerry for not speaking out, fine. I agree wholeheartedly. But he does not deserve to be bashed by people who are actually (???????) believeing the mainstream media (?????!!!!!) without attempting to learn the actual facts.

[whistle]

24. Do you have proof that John Kerry deliberately sabbatoged...

...his own chances of being elected, that he arranged for the voting counts to be manipulated in favor of his opponent, then he secretly agreed with the Bush campaign operatives to block voting precincts from voting and further agreed to not oppose any efforts to do that? Your statement is absurd.

[dand]

35. The only thing absurd is your gullibility,

wake up, I don't know if it was skull & bones, or threats or a pay off,
but that man abandoned his supporters at warp speed.

The only thing he deserves is contempt. Now flame away.

[whistle]

37. That is not proof only venting of your disappointment. . .

. . .I'm disappointed also because I felt he would stand up to the abuses where democrats have dragged their feet on this issue over the last four years. But this is not John Kerry alone and as I posted earlier the democratic party leadership assured it's support base that a legion of lawyers were on stand-by to rush to any precinct, district or state where voter fraud was suspected. They did not respond. But I also do not believe that John Kerry rolled over on his own on this.

Something very suspicious is occurring and in the words of Noah Cross from the Roman Polanski directed movie Chinatown, "We may think we know what is going on, but we really don't!" I'm willing to wait for the events to reveal themselves, but I am going to continue to express my disappointment in a respectful manner until the facts are known.

[crispini]

7. His fax number: [phone]

You might wanna run it through the spell checker first, though. :)

[whistle]

12. And sign your real name, proudtobeadem

[proudtobeadem]

32. Thanks, sent it :)

[Karmadillo]

14. Why now? Recounts are proceeding. What, exactly, do you

want Kerry to do and, other than give the media something on which to feed for several days, what would be accomplished if he did it?

[proudtobeadem]

18. More people need to know what is going on

and although the MSM has started to pick up on it I'm afraid that without Kerry it's not going to go anywhere they'll spin it to death.
We need the average person who just glances at the news for few minutes to know. We need to end up with a Ukraine II. That is going to be hard to do without him leading us. i don't know, maybe I'm growing impatient.

[zeemike]

39. I will answer that

He was the major candidate in the election, if he asked for a recount the courts would have to give it to him.
But I smell a dirty trick coming. If there is a recount in Ohio they will probably tabulate the green and libertarian vote and not the Kerry Bush ones.
Sorry sucker we got ya.

[Viktor Runeberg]

17. James K. Galbraith: election stolen

In Salon today Galbraith makes a clear comparision to Ukraine:

here (watching an advert required)

[Emillereid]

31. Double that sentiment!

The challenge to the November 2nd election results can only get the momentum it needs from you. If you don't lead this effort now you can kiss any future support from me and lots of dems like me good-bye.

Kerry aide pans nasty Bush run

by Jesse Greenspan
Contributing Writer

-snip-
Trbovich has known Kerry for more than 30 years, he said, and
even worked as communications director of Kerry's failed 1972
congressional campaign. He said the Massachusetts senator has
more integrity and intelligence than almost anyone else he
knows. He added, however, that unlike Bill Clinton, Kerry's
intellect is at stronger than his political ear.

"Excuse my language, but you've literally got to beat the shit
out of John Kerry sometimes to get him where you want him to
go," he said. •

NEWS RELEASE

For immediate release: November 30, 2004
Contact: Blair Bobier, Media Director at 541.929.5755

STATEMENT FROM THE GREEN PARTY PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN CONCERNING JOHN KERRY'S INTERVENTION IN OHIO RECOUNT COURT CASE

Today, attorneys representing the Kerry-Edwards campaign filed papers in Delaware County, Ohio to intervene in legal proceedings in defense of Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael
Badnarik and their legal counsel, the National Voting Rights Institute, who
are seeking a recount of all votes cast for president in the Ohio 2004
general election.
On November 23, at the request of the Delaware County Board of
Elections, a Delaware County judge issued a temporary restraining order
against Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael
Badnarik and the National Voting Rights Institute, seeking to prevent them
from initiating a recount of the presidential vote in that county.
The judge issued the order without first consulting the
candidates or their attorneys.
"The Cobb-LaMarche Green Party presidential campaign has been
leading the effort to seek a recount of the presidential vote in Ohio. We
are seeking a recount to protect the integrity of the voting process, to
protect the right to vote and to ensure that all votes are counted fairly
and accurately. The Cobb-LaMarche campaign has been joined in this effort
by the Libertarian presidential campaign. We believe that all presidential
candidates should support the recount in Ohio to remove any cloud of
suspicion cast on the election results. We welcome the support of the
Kerry-Edwards campaign for the recount and we call upon the Bush-Cheney
ticket to offer their support for this multi-partisan effort as well," said
Blair Bobier, Media Director for the Cobb-LaMarche Green Party presidential
campaign.
The Cobb-LaMarche campaign is currently seeking recounts of the
presidential vote in New Mexico and Nevada, in addition to Ohio. For more
information, see the campaign website, http://www.votecobb.org. Information
about the Green Party can be found at http://www.gp.org.

40. Kerry Needs to Step Up to the Plate ... NOW !

Wow ... I love it. Like minds really DO think alike. Even the wording!! I just posted this elsewhere, but looks like I should've come to this thread first. Go easy on me .. I'm still sort of,kind of, like a (DU) virgin ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi all - I've been lurking on these pages for the last month since the "election" , and finally got registered here at DU ( my lifesaver to be amongst like-minded patriots ). My first post!!

Today is a sad day for our troops in Iraq , as we basically tied the monthly record of casualties. This might be a good time to use that arguement to try to convince John Kerry to step up to the plate , and challenge this fraudulent election. We all saw his bravery during, and immediately after his service in Viet Nam. He spoke in front of the Senate back then ... now he IS a Senator and all we get is ... SILENCE ?!? How many more young soldiers will die if Bush is allowed to remain in office unchallenged ? If Kerry wants to do nothing to right this wrong ( the Stolen Election ) , then at least do something to help his comrades in uniform , for chrissakes !

(election) SILENCE = (Iraqi) DEATH

I know we'd all like to believe that Kerry & Co. are all working behind the scenes, about to spring the "Proof" , but we really are getting down to the wire. Perhaps he's learned something from the way the 2000 debacle was handled. Perhaps not. If not,and he allows this theft of democracy to occur without a fight, his "Reporting for Duty" salute at the convention will seem particularly offensive. I want
( I NEED ) to believe that Kerry's got the goods and is simply waiting for the right moment/opportunity to lay it all out. In the meantime, families are losing their loved ones at an ever increasing rate. Get off the bench John . We need you !

[proudtobeadem]

43. Welcome to DU weeve the more the merrier!!

[greenmutha]

44. Kerry has reported for duty! Please see the discussion at:

this thread:

Kerry campaign joins the glib lawsuit in OH!!!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=203&topic_id=94805&mesg_id=94805

[proudtobeadem]

45. I know, I saw, I read, I cried, I laughed, i thanked God.

[propagandafreegal]

46. I'm starting to believe the conspiracy theory that Kerry was in on it and

threw the election.

[Democrat Dragon]

48. That may be a possiblity

However I would have to disagree with that after looking at Kerry's past battles with the Neocons. If you wanted to verify that claim perhaps you could research on election fixing of the primaries. According to the Votergate documentary, a Diebold machine gave Kerry votes to Gephart.

[propagandafreegal]

50. Maybe they were practicing for the REAL battle..

I dunno...I just had a bad feeling when I listened to the Jesse interview w/ Amy Goldman...

[texpatriot2004]

47. I am so sick of these threads full of people who think that they

know better than Kerry does when he should show up. I for one am glad he isn't rushing out to please people. I mean I'll be glad when he comes forward but I believe that he knows what is best. I believe he knows what he is doing. It seems to be working and it's a much better plan than being eaten alive by the "liberal media" or labeled a "sore loser." Back off would you. He's intelligent, he's experienced, he's a leader, he's a fighter, he's an experienced prosecutor, he's fought big fraud before...let him do what he needs to do. Maybe we don't know what's best. I know we are hurt and angry, I know I am, but being reactive and rushing into the fight without a strategy or forethought is pointless.

[whistle]

49. Exactly the point and well said, thank you Texpatriot2004
