Kerry offers style of leadership that the United States needs


Four years ago, The Morning Call recommended that George W. Bush be elected president of the United States. Since then, fate and history have handed him both the challenge of crisis and opportunities to put his stamp on the annals of American statesmanship.

The nation is engaged in a draining war in Iraq, but other places of danger around the world get only nervous, sidelong glances. The economy is sluggish, and the signs that it soon will rebound are faint or non-existent. Presidents don't control the economy, but policy does matter. We think that the grim prospects for the war in Iraq and the state of the domestic economy are in large measure the result of President Bush's own bad estimate of the world, America's role in it … and his own leadership abilities.

Therefore, The Morning Call cannot continue the support we offered for Mr. Bush four years ago, and we recommend that Sen. John F. Kerry be elected president.
