1. Most of the voting public is extremely ill and/or un-informed of the facts of the candidates.
2. Kerry is taller. That is what the US public decides presidencies on.
3. Although lying has been a part of politics from the beginning, it has been aided and abetted by TELEVISION, ever since the principle of TRUTH IN ADVERTISING was totally eliminated. Once advertisers (people versed in marketing of all kinds) realized they could lie and get away with it, the door was nailed wide open.
This occurred because of EVIL, the lust for MONEY, GREED they call it.
Don't believe me. Think about it. PSYCHIC phone lines, PHONESEX lines, all became popular and legal at the same time. Then PSYCHIC TV shows were allowed. Once the public had no objections, there was no limit on the outright lying allowed.
Sure, the politics of lying or lying in politics has existed since politics existed, but I remember a time when you could trust what was on TV to a certain extent.
NO LONGER. TV is a WHORE. KILL YOUR TV.

2. Kerry is taller. That is what the US public decides presidencies on.Gore is taller than Bush (and don't give me the 'Gore won the popular vote' line -- with all the Dem voting fraud and refusal to include military/absentee ballots in the total, I don't believe it).
Isn't Mondale taller than Reagan?
And I'll bet Dewey was taller than Truman.
