"Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry focused on jobs and national security in his acceptance speech Thursday, but his campaign plans to raise second-tier issues such as gun ownership to win key states in the West."
"The issues include: Gun ownership: The campaign will tout Kerry's record of support for the Second Amendment, officials said in a news briefing. The issue is important to blue-collar voters who might feel disaffected by calls for gun control legislation backed by urban Democrats from the East, they said."
"In 2000, Gore shied away from the gun issue, and he resisted being photographed holding a hunting rifle. Kerry, by contrast, is a sportsman, and his campaign has promoted images of the candidate hunting."
" 'We feel very, very confident that we have inoculated that issue,' said Sam Rodriguez, Kerry's campaign manager in Washington state. 'John Kerry is a hunter.' "
-------
The fact that Kerry took time out of his busy campaigning schedule to actually do his job for a change and ran back to the Senate to vote in favor of an unconstitutional gun ban should tell you everything you need to know about his "record" on the Second Amendment.
And for the last time, the Second Amendment ain't about hunting, Spanky! |
