Dean Out Of Race

So Howard Dean is out of the US presidential race.
I heard it last night on CNN, and I can’t say I was shocked. After the wins John Kerry has been packing under his belt, I was expecting Dean to pull out.

It’s a shame, I think. Dean was the only person who was thinking the right way and who really wanted and could make a change.

Now, John Kerry and John Edwards are left in the race, and it’s almost obvious Kerry is going to get the nomination.

I haven’t posted my opinion about Kerry before, so here it is.
I think Kerry is just another special interests driven politician who won’t really bring much new or change.
Of course, lining up with the Anyone But Bush Americans, I think he should become President of the US.
But honestly, I think the US needs a President who can make a change for the American people and the world. Someone who is in touch with what the people need and what their priorities are. Someone who can keep the US the greatest power but also make it respected and loved.
I felt Howard Dean could make a step towards something like that.

Anyway, Good luck to whoever wins the nomination.

  1. Howard Dean was indeed the best in terms of good ideas… He was also the favorite by far before the first caucuses. However, because he said that the US should be even-handed with palestinians and the Israelis, and from that moment on, the media turned out against him and there is lost. I like him a lot. Actually, Edwards might win, if Dean’s people vote for him…..

  2. I think American voters are too conservative, even though they are democrats. Therefore, Dean is too liberal for them. I guess that is why Kerry won many of the primaries. Clark also would be a good candidate, unfortunately he ran out of money. As you know, in the US and during the primaries, more you win, more you get money for your campaign.
    For the Palestinian problem, I think, and here I am not kidding, the best candidate will be Joe Liebermann. Because only a Jew can stand against Israel without having any trouble.

    By the way I read this article on New York times:

    Arabs in U.S. Raising Money to Back Bush

    Any comments?

  3. I guess you’re right about Dean being a bit too liberal for them, although I think a liberal like him is what America needs.

    As for Lieberman, well maybe, but do you think he would ever stand against Israel ?
    I don’t really see him doing that ?

    As for the arabs raising money to back Bush, well I just read the article and I think it’s a big big shame.
    These people only care about their special interests, and they don’t give a damn about what happens to other arabs in the US or outside of it.
