Letter: Real questions from real people
Thursday, Sept. 2, 2004 | 8:51 a.m.
I would like to challenge President Bush to a face-to-face discussion with the citizens of Nevada. I do not mean reporters or special invited guests. I mean the people who live and work here who are trying to make a decent living and get health care.
I would like to ask him why he changed his mind and decided to dump the nuclear waste of this country on us. I would like to ask him if he would be willing to send his daughters to Iraq to fight for the end of terrorism. I would like to ask him if his daughters were afflicted with diabetes or multiple sclerosis, or if his wife had Alzheimer's disease, if he would be so against stem cell research. I would like to ask him if he could live on minimum wage.
If he can't address these issues with real people, he's not worthy to be the president.
