I voted for John Kerry so that more attention would be paid to the environment, there would be a better chance of an honest, fair health care policy, we might actually get clean air, we might see a decent proposal to salvage social security, we might be able to exit Iraq with some dignity and leave that country in a little better shape than it is now, we could begin to repair our image and credibility overseas, we might be able to get the proper equipment for our troops, we might be able to get the economy moving again, and we might be able to move towards an electorate who will at least try to work together! There's more, but these are the main points.
