Dr. Dennis Nagy: so much power to do good (or evil).
Submitted by Howard2 on Thursday, November 4, 2004 - 09:52

Dear Howard,

Here is what I sent back to John Kerry after receiving an e-mail thank-you from him. I hope it rings true with you, too, and all of your organization who worked so hard for the goal we almost achieved this time. Let's all continue to stay focussed on the main point: so much power to do good (or evil) eminates from the Presidency and Congress of the United States. No matter what our specific causes and agendas may be, we must all remain focussed and united in taking back Congress in 2006 and the White House in 2008 as the necessary foundation for all our other goals and causes--otherwise we will all continue to struggle to swim upstream against a torrent of reactionary, neoconservative turbulence financed by our own tax money!

Thanks and best regards,

Dr. Dennis Nagy
Chapel Hill, NC

Dear Senator Kerry,

Thank you for your tremendous effort!

It became clear to me during the campaign that we all had our work cut out for us regardless of who won this election. This loss is just a (hopefully temporary) setback in a multi-year, multi-decade effort to both move America positively forward as well as return to our core values: tolerance, positive leadership, intelligent dialog, true compassion--none of which are shown by the Bush Administration.

The Democratic Party needs very strong leadership and focus right now to wage a continuing effort to win back the White House 4 years from now and the Congress two years from now--please don't "fade from the scene" like other defeated Democratic Presidential candidates after past elections. You have not in any way failed the Democratic Party--we just all did not (yet) do enough to get people thinking about and feeling stronger about what really matters in their lives.The Democratic Party doesn't need any major overhaul or repositioning--just more focus, fine-tuning, and drive to capture a few more percentage points in 2 years, 4 years,... Please do everything you can to sustain, on an ongoing basis, the great momentum created during this campaign.

Dr. Dennis A. Nagy
Chapel Hill, NC
