Our Opinion:

If we could vote on who we want to be president, we would vote for our current president, George Bush. We think that Bush has handled all the serious events that have occured in the past four years very well. Bush knows our nations situation right now better than anyone else on the planet. He also is more experienced than Kerry, having been our president for four years. There is no way our nation could survive without Bush.
