2004 Presidential Nominees This paper is due Friday, December 5, 2003. That means that after this paper is turned in, there is still nearly an entire year to go until the 2004 presidential election. Some people say that means the current events surrounding these eight men and one woman don’t matter; in a society where only 50% of the eligible voting populace chooses to use that right, it’s a troubling idea that primaries are worthless. But then, a lot can change in a day; even more can differ in a year. The list of candidates will change accordingly as the primary season continues, and the contenders’ support either grows or dwindles. Perhaps more importantly, the ranks will thin as each losing campaign’s money slowly runs out. Either way, things will only get more interesting as the days go on. At present, the slate of Democratic competitors for the 2004 nomination includes the following (in alphabetical order) – former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO General Wesley Clark, former Vermont Governor Howard Dean, North Carolina Senator John Edwards, Missouri Senator Richard “Dick” Gephardt, Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, Ohio Representative Dennis Kucinich, Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman, former Illinois Representative dean, howard, campaign, candidate, senator, kerry, race, bush, gephardt, lieberman, state, nomination, john, george, democratic, after, presidential, new, kucinich, general, even, edwards, clark, being, former, first, candidacy, 2004, sharpton, seen, election, dean’s, war, should
