I'm a believer... but I need to know WHICH world leaders

Are talking to Kerry/

Couldn't he be accused of conducting backdoor diplomacy?

1. That would be wrong ...

because clearly does not have a (R) after his name.

Just look at the backdoor dealings that the Reagan / Bush criminal administration pulled. It undermined Carters ability to free the hostages, and ensured that they would be captive much longer than necessary.

2. Talking is not diplomacy

Diplomacy, and more specifically "foreign policy" (note: it *is* illegal for a private citizen to engage in foreign policy without authorization from the govt) is not the same as talking to an official of a foriegn country. In order for it to be foreign policy or diplomacy, they must discuss changing a nation's policies.

3. The spinners started yesterday

using this info saying: Well, it just shows you how good *Bush is on protecting us since they want Kerry to win. You know the line. Dems are soft on terrorists. WHO was in charge when they killed 3,000 people? Who added more causalities by going to an unjust and immoral war? Close to 600 Americans and 10,000 Iraqis. Is this the price for re selection?

6. Senators talk to world leaders

all the time. It's part of their job. I have no doubt the majority of them want Bush the hell out. I know we get tons of people from all over the world at the Kerry forum saying the same thing.
