Kerry went on to beat his rival, John Edwards, in a string of huge victories in Ohio, Maryland, Connecticut and also his home state of Massachusetts. These victories helped to clinch Kerry's hold on the Democratic nominee position and he immediately focused his attention on the upcoming November elections.

The majority of Democratic voters that backed John Kerry on Super Tuesday were focused on the economy, jobs, and their dissatisfaction with our current president, George W. Bush.

Kerry went on to beat his rival, John Edwards, in a string of huge victories in Ohio, Maryland, Connecticut and also his home state of Massachusetts. These victories helped to clinch Kerry's hold on the Democratic nominee position and he immediately focused his attention on the upcoming November elections.

“Boy, wait until they see the fire in my belly,” Kerry said in one of his television interviews Tuesday morning. “People who know me well, know that fire is raging.”

The main emphasis for voters on Super Tuesday was to find a candidate that could help to oust Bush from his current position as President of the United States. It seems that most voters are upset with President Bush due to his policies and recent actions. According to exit polls conducted for the Associated Press and television networks by Edison Media Research and Mitofsky International, about half of the voters on Tuesday said that they were angry with the President and approximately one third were dissatisfied with his ability to govern thus far.

"Democrats, in general, feel that the country is going in the wrong direction," stated University of West Virginia Political Science professor Kevin Leyden. "Kerry is a very articulate and reasonable person and the Democrats feel that he can lead a good debate against the President."

This was the popular belief amongst most Super Tuesday voters. Exit polls also showed that about one third of all voters put their highest priority on a candidates ability to defeat Bush and another one third said that the economy and jobs were the biggest issue. This leaves Kerry with a slight advantage over Bush in the upcoming elections.

"Both Democrats and independents alike are upset with Bush and have united in their effort to overtake his position," said Allan Hammock, a 35-year veteran Political Science professor at the University of West Virginia. "Jobs are going to other countries because of cheaper labor and there is a great number of people that are greatly upset by this. There has been a lot of lost jobs and a lot of resentment towards Bush."

Kerry's position is to help create and maintain jobs in America and not let them slip away to other nations.

In his Super Tuesday speech, Kerry stated, "There are powerful forces that want America to continue on exactly the path that it's on today. And there are also millions of Americans who are hurt by the policies that favor the few, who doubt whether the government once again can work for them."

This statement undoubtedly hinges upon Bush's actions and policies since his election in 2000. Many voters believe Bush is working on his own personal agenda for the good of the nation and not on the people's agenda. Kerry seems ready to give the voters what they want, which is to deny Bush's re-election.

Kerry went on in his Super Tuesday speech to say, "And we will provide new incentives, important new incentives, for manufacturing that reward the good companies that create the jobs and keep them here in the United States."

The majority of voters tend to think that U.S. trade with foreign countries is likely to take away jobs according to exit polls. When asked, "Why Kerry?" most voters opted to say, "He's not Bush."

"I'm definitely going to vote for John Kerry," said Mike Zareno, a 20 year old Marist College Student. "He seems like a reasonable, competent person that can lead our nation to safety and security. Besides, anything is better that Bush. He has lied to the American Public about a lot of things and I think it's time for someone to replace him that is willing to work for the people and with the people."

Another registered voter, Barbara Winans of Goshen, NY, said, "Bush hasn't really helped out the people of our nation, it seems as though he is misusing his power to bring about changes that he feels is best and not what the people feel is best."

John Kerry has clinched the Democratic nomination and seems ready to look towards November. With the backing of his party and the other third party groups, along with voter's displeasure concerning the economy and jobs, John Kerry is ready to lead the Democratic Party to victory.
