Bush Shadows Kerry Campaign
People note that Bush and Kerry frequently campaign in close proximity to each other.
Here is an e-mail from Portland Oregon about the duplication there:
Hi Folks,
I am so proud of the folks in Portland!!!!!
President Bush scheduled a visit to PDX on the same day as John Kerry's planned visit to our fair city. He did so after knowing of Kerry's schedule and kept his itinerary secret until 24 hours of his arrival. His two functions were not open to the public, they were behind closed doors by special invitation ONLY to the rich of the Republican party. They made a point to schedule his major speech at the same time as John Kerry's speech at Water Front Park Rally; so local T.V. and radio covered the president live and they had to do a tape delay of John Kerry's speech.
This kind of action reminds me of Fascist Europe of 60 plus years ago!!
John Kerry's Rally was free, open to the public and 50,000 plus Portlanders showed up at Water Front Part to support John Kerry. I am proud to have been one of them.
