America-Hye Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 The two Democratic finalists both have strong connections to influential and prominent Armenians. Their records on Armenian issues are impeccable. Will the right-wing Armenians among us still support Bush in November? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

den_wolf Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) LOL!!!! I would refrain from voting, if I were a citizen of the United States. I refrain from voting here in the United Kingdom too. It is pointless. If you vote, you will be playing by their rules. But it is true that the Republicans have always used false promises in their campaings. But haven't the Democrats done the same?

Well I always vote (and I mean not just in national elections either - but local ones as well) - (well not in primaries - beacuse I am neither a Democrate or a Republican)...and I often do not vote for major party candidates...prefering to write in (often voting for myself...LOL) or pick whoever else might be running....sometimes no matter how kooky...can you see it now - Jesse Ventura for President! LOL Yeah I often vote for candidates based on what I percieve them to be for pure entertainment value alone...boy do i miss AMrion barry and wish he were still mayor of Washinton Dc....

America-Hye Posted February 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 Sasun, Both Kerry and Edwards have long histories of supporting Genocide resolutions, supporting Section 907 and increased aid to Armenia. Kerry is very close to the Armenian members of the Massachusetts legislature, including those who have held leadership positions. Edwards is close with Richard Harpootlian, recent South Carolina Democratic Chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will have a lot of new fish to fry, and power corrupts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gevo27 Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 The two Democratic finalists both have strong connections to influential and prominent Armenians. Their records on Armenian issues are impeccable. Will the right-wing Armenians among us still support Bush in November? I will vote for bush still, but that doesn mean i agree to everything he says or does... I dont feel we need a democrat in the executive branch of our government, unless it was Theodore Roosevelt I would vote for him if he were running ))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurgen Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 You actually vote for Bush????? Why, on God's green earth, do you vote for a man with less brains than a peanut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellthecat Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Rather more interesting (and perhaps more useful than pointless genocide resolutions) is the fact of Kerry's connection to Armenia through his wife's family. The Heinz family organised and provided financial aid to Armenia during the early days of the first Armenian Republic, and Howard Heinz actually visited Armenia in 1919.
