Letter to Kerry

Damn Kerry, I want you to win so bad but you're screwing this up.

You're so outa touch with middle America. All you keep saying is everything is wrong and we need to "CHANGE THE COURSE".

That's all fine and dandy, but do you have any idea what a lot of people that are on the fence about this election translates that to?

You know damn well many of the votes you need to sway in your favor support the War. This might be a big surprise to you but not all American voters are as educated and sophisticated in there world view of international policy as you and your friends are.

W. Bush (excuse me, "his admin") understands this and knows how to relate to redneck America, scared little old lady America, gung ho kill all the colored people America. But you seem to have no idea that only a small percentage of Americans and people in general have an IQ and mentality over "average".

You keep trying to target this demographic in your race and you'll fall flat on your face and never trully understand why. The educated few that can understand your refined view of politics already understand what you're about and want to vote for you, but you're missing the connection with the vast majority of average comprehension, on the fence voters.

I'm sure you have plenty of great advisors, but like most people they are viewing the world through their own self image. They are directing you to appeal to the mentality they and you understand. Maybe the typical kind of person that actually gets out to see you on the campaigne trail, but not necessarily all my "low brow" friends that get out and vote. (I'm forcing them to vote Kerry btw)

So let me just ask you bluntly my friends concerns:

1) When you say change the course.. do you mean pull out??? Maybe try making your tag phrase "IMPROVE THE COURSE"

2) When you say everything is going wrong??? Do you see anything positive about the war? Do you have any hope for this war? PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR ABOUT HOPE. Cause when you say everything is wrong, people translates that to "you think everything is screwed and we have to pull out"


Come on Kerry. Swallow your pride and don't worry about offending your current advisors... but STEP THIS UP A NOTCH!!! Get some more advisors, analysts, pyschologists, socialogists etc... and do some GORILLA CAMPAIGNING.

Be more shrewd and cunning and use the tactics it takes to appeal to die hard, ra ra ra, "RED BLOODED" Americans. You're seriously slipping. All my NASCAR budweiser drinkin' buddies think your just a pretty boy that doesn't know the first thing about kicking some Iraqi ass. And unfortunately too many Americans are motivated by just that. Bush understands this and is getting all those votes.

You don't have to be a war monger, but I'd love to see what you can do to appeal to more "Red Blooded" war-pro Americans without compromising your values.

It's such a shame. Us intelligent ones understood right away that you voted just to give the authority to go to war if absolutely necessary, but that once W. Bush started to "ABUSE" that authority you went against his ABUSE of authority not against fighting terror. But the mentality of the people who's vote you need can't think that sophisticatedly as easy and obvious as it seems to us.

I know it's not in your personality to use dramatic language as "Bush ABUSED the authority you granted him", but GO GORILLA, GET IN THE TRENCHES AGAIN, GO AFTER BUSH like he was CHARLIE in Vietnam. lol.

I pray for your sucess.
