Politicians from both parties often express their willingness to “fight” for causes they deem worthy. You can gain a lot of insight paying attention to who they want to fight.
When Kerry/Edwards, and Democrats in general, refer to fighting, they wish to lead a faction of Americans perceived “victims” in battle against other Americans perceived “enemies,” such as pharmaceutical companies, oil companies, insurance companies, doctors, HMOs.
When Bush/Cheney, and Republicans in general, refer to fighting, they wish to lead all Americans in battle against America’s real enemies before we become victims.
