#1 A Kerry adviser tries to push the dollar down? This should be great publicity for the Kerry campaign. What next? George Soros funds the "Iraqi resistance"?

#2 A John Kerry presidency could precipitate a disastrous decline for the US in all areas including the dollar. As a cold heartless prick, insuring that he would make money on his positions against the dollar by backing Kerry makes good sense for Buffet.

#5 Apple? When it comes to marketing, these guys are who I'd want on my team...not! Beta v/s VHS Apple v/s Microsoft Kerry v/s Bush.

In all instances, they are arrogant enough to believe that they are so much better than their competitors that the people will flock to them despite their refusal to think of their customer's needs first. In the first two cases they were buried by those who did choose to cooperate. Hopefully, they will work their "magic" once again.

#6 Perhaps Jobs will lend Kerry his 'reality distortion field'. :-)

#7 Mr Buffet can kiss this profits goodbye if John Forbes Kerry & his collection of leftist party hacks take the White House. It will be Clinton-Carter all over again. Except this time the stakes are a lot higher.

#8 Jackson,

The past tense would be more appropriate.

Espinola,

Mr. Buffett did not do too poorly during the Clinton years.
