Bush: Down in history.

President Bush stands a very good chance of being re-elected for a second term. If he does so, he will change presidential history as we know it.

He will be the first son, or grandson, of a former president to be re-elected. John Quincy Adams and Benjamin Harrison did not get re-elected.

He has (almost) completly survived "The Curse of Tecumseh." Regan actually was the first "0" year elected president to survive it--but with two punctured lungs. If not for modern medicine he would have been a statistic.

He could be the first person to win the White House, twice, without having the highest number of popular votes. The other three (edit: to win a single term without popular votes) were J.Q. Adams, Hayes, and Benjamin Harrison.

or on a sad note...

he could be the 13th president to serve (edit: and complete)a single term.

I dont see how this is a sad note...

Though Bush has many faults, I believe that Kerry would be a disaster for this nation. Just like Clinton sat on his azz for 8 years and let Sadam have his way; Kerry would depend on another republican to come in and clean up his mess.

That's the most ridiculous simplistic reason to vote for Bush.
You may want to give this a little more thought you know.
