Media bias-
I've always thought that CBS and Dan Rather were especially tallented at this.

Figuring it out-
You’re right, we shouldn’t anylize every word but of course hear what is said.
But when a candidate says something to one group of people then stumps the exact opposite somewhere else (Owns SUV’s then doesn’t own any SUV’s… All for the war, then completely against the war, he tossed his medals-but not his own medals- then not medals at all etc) he has issues.
I began a list of 14 major discrepancies noted just in his Tuesday speech but this page began to be too long.

Kerry says he will work with the international community through the U.N..
I can only assume the main countries he is mentioning is France and Germany.
What if the next crisis happens and France won’t go along?
There are multiple possible crisis’s in our near future. Taiwan, N. Korea, Iran etc.
Should we be responsible for our own national security or is it more important to try and appease France? What if France still won't come to agreement?
Without France should we "Go it alone" as some would say?
In that case would Kerry's decision be a complete international relations failure?
Would that make the whole world hate us?

Since Kerry isn’t standing on a fixed foundation how would he handle a crisis?
Only to say “I will work with the international community” while standing behind a pulpit one has to admit is pretty vague.
A president has got to know where he stands on issues, stand firm and mean what he says.

Efficient drivers do it better.
