97. I don't understand the challenge.
Nor do I agree that people are talking about "how bad the Dems are." It seems that there are those who believe that Kerry should be talking about how the corporate controlled media is trying to shove their version of freedom down our throats, think Kerry should be talking about LIHOP/MIHOP and how Bush planned and carried out 9/11 to put us all in a police state, how we need to completely pull our troops from Afghanistan and Iraq, quit funding Israel, and mind our own business. I mentioned all these things in a thread earlier today.

I don't like that Nader has thrown his hat into the ring but he does have a following among progressives for talking about these issues I've mentioned, and it doesn't seem like Kerry wants to talk about these things which are so important to many who would like to support him otherwise.

I'm voting Kerry, no doubt, but we need the support of the Nader type voters. My suggestion is to get Kerry to start stumping on corporate controlled media, MIHOP/LIHOP, pulling the troops, and no longer funding Israel. He needs to talk about these things in every speech from now until November, and he would attract a whole new group of voters to his camp.
