  Interesting enough, presidential hopeful John Kerry has made mysterious claims that various foreign leaders are pulling for him to beat GW in November. However, he won't release any names since it might damage their relationship with the current administration. There's an urlLink article in the Washington Times about this and how they've checked into his travels over the last year or so and cannot substantiate any meeting that he's had with any foreign leaders. Not only that, they say that no foreign leaders have even been in the same area as Mr. Kerry with one exception though Kerry was not at that meeting. The article goes on to say how 75% of those polled thought that terrorists would be happier with a Kerry win in November. I'm not trying to make this a political blog by any means, but this whole election year so far just irritates me. If America's image wasn't tarnished enough, the bogus claims by Kerry make us the laughing stock of the world.
In the urlLink Washington Times article , there is this quote by Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer: "I think it's probably better to keep foreign leaders and the views of foreign leaders out of domestic elections, I mean, certainly we do that here in this country. I mean, people express different views to you, if you're a candidate, I tend not to pass on those kinds of views publicly. "
