The World Currently Blames Bush, But If He Wins-- Blame Goes to Americans

Edited on Wed Oct-06-04 10:13 PM by David Zephyr
I have now heard this from Europeans, South Americans and people from Singapore to South Africa:

The world still wants to believe that the American people are good and decent and a positive force for the planet, but after the last four years of unilateralism, national hubris, name calling, lying, warmongering and the killing of tens of thousands of innocent children, the day of reckoning will be in November this year.

For should the American people choose to elect George W. Bush and his administration for four more years, the "benefit of the doubt" will no longer exist for a great many of the world's population for they will then know that the American people are behind the insane and imperialistic policies of the Bush Administration.

Americans who travel abroad know this all too well. Americans are approached and told, "We like the American people, but we don't like your President". Of course, this is a graceful way of sending a message, isn't it? "Please, don't return this man to a postion of such great power again" is what they are really saying.

This is something that we should all share with everyone we know.

The people of our planet are watching closely what we, the American people, will do in November. I believe that they truly want to believe that our people will do the right thing. But will we?

Will their faith in the American people be restored or forever destroyed?

This election is pivotal for us as Americans for the rest of our lives as we inhabit the globe with the other 94% of its population.

We must let the world know that his actions were In Our Name Only.

It's now up to the American people.
