Coherant, well thought out, and not obviously biased. Work on the spelling, and you could turn out to be a very good poster. Anyway, here's my thoughts on the two candidates.
Kerry - Kerry served in Vietnam and for that I respect him. I'm not going to get too upset and split hairs about the video camera, hit purple hearts, or why he came home so early. That's all far into the past when he was a stupid kid. What mattered to me was his senate record, which showed him to be a stupider adult (couldn't resist, sorry).
Bush - I'll admit, Bush was once a bad, bad man with some unsavory habits. He did drugs, drank, and many other rebellious things. However, so did my dad, but both of them turned their backs on these things and cleaned up, becoming great, Christian men. What mattered to me about Bush was his past four years in office, and the only glaring issue was a weak immigration stance.
As for why Bush won, it's just this simple. Bush recieved more electoral votes than Kerry. That's it.
