Do you know a swing voter or weak Bush supporter?
Edited on Wed Sep-15-04 12:20 PM by troublemaker
Please ask them this in casual conversation. Ask as a sincere question... as if you genuinely want to know their opinion. Let them answer... let them think it through for themselves as much as possible.
What would have happened if Bush was President during the Cuban missile crisis?

1. I know lots of weak-MINDED Bush supporters
But none who are waffling. Sadly.

2. See, but...
That would require a knowledge of what actually happened then, and an analysis of what Bush would have done differently. For many people my age-ish (24), that'll go right over their heads. Might work with those who are older, though?

6. Maybe house-party showing of 13 DAYS are called for
Unlike F9/11, it's not a notably partisan film, so a wider range of folks can be drawn in.

4. Now THIS is a great idea!!
:)

But I just wonder how many out there really know the details of the Cuban Missle Crisis.

Regardless...Wonderful idea. Wonder if more simple questions could be listed in this thread?

5. If they don't know the details, then you tell them. But let them
think it through as best they can first. Even if they know only a little of the story I suspect most people will know the answer even if they don't want to admit it.

7. Answer: Bush Would Have Invaded Iraq
And there would be currently nuclear missiles in Cuba.
