This is a very nice endorsement |
|
The Times, in endorsing Kerry, characterized President Bush's presidency as "disastrous" and accused him of "turning the government over to the radical right."
"We are impressed with Mr. Kerry's wide knowledge and clear thinking," the Times said Sundays editions. "He is blessedly willing to reevaluate decisions when conditions change."
Kerry "has qualities that could be the basis for a great chief executive, not just a modest improvement on the incumbent," the newspaper said. "He strikes us, above all, as a man with a strong moral core."
After "examining what the candidates have done in the past, their apparent priorities and their general character," the Times said "we enthusiastically endorse John Kerry for president."
Hit it with a "5!"

20. Love it or hate it, the NY Times is |
|
still looked at as the paper of record for the U.S. abroad and even nationally...
I remember watching this interview with Bush* the elder who said the NYT was too "left-leaning" but he still read it because of the international reporting.

22. I have been a Kerry supporter from the beginning, but I would |
|
have happily supported any of our fine candidates. However, the more I learn about Kerry the more I feel in my whole being that he will be one of the great presidents. This was totally solidified for me a couple of weeks ago when I went to see Going Upriver. This is a man of supreme integrity; it is the way he was raised. Go see that documentary if you get a chance. Please, Fate, do not deprive us of this fine man who has lived his whole life for this moment when he is so deperately needed.
