[Peace-discuss] topic of conversation

[Alfred Kagan]

Considering Kerry's recent statements, one  begins to wonder how he 
would act in Iraq differently than a second Bush Administration. I 
still think that Kerry would do things differently concerning 
starting new wars, but I am beginning to question the Anybody but 
Bush idea.  It seems to me that the anti-war/peace movement needs to 
start thinking about how to pressure Kerry to at least be more like 
Dean if not Kucinich on Iraq.  I can't say I know how to do that. The 
Democrats always assume that anyone to the left will support them. Of 
course, they complain about Nader but it is not clear to me that they 
are willing to make any concessions to win the Nader votes.

What should the organized Peace Movement do?
