I'm not going to vote, for the simple reason that I'm not eligible. Also not sure how either of them view Canada or intend to treat us, so I can't really say I have a preference based on that. Both of them seem open to a degree of protectionism in trade.

I dislike Bush's foreign policy, but I really don't know how Kerry will jump - the known vs. the unknown. If pressed, I suppose I'd go Kerry, but I don't feel I have that much of a stake in the election, although it may turn out afterward that I did.

Edit: it would be interesting to see what Nader could/would do, but I'd prefer to find out without having to vote him in. Actually, I feel that way about all potential leaders - maybe we need a trial period; everybody gets two months to show their stuff...
