As Emi would affirm politics in Bearanada is a friendly process.  There is no "going negative", as there is in our sordid world.  As a matter of fact, if a prospective political bear wants to really score points with her/his constituency it pays to be "going positive"!  

One has only to cite the recent example of Dembearocrat Karee Bear's landslide election to President of Bearanada in the last general election.  The political pundits on Bearanadan media frequently pointed to the fact she praised her opponent, Harry Bear so effusively in their debates that Harry was embarrased into playing catch up with some counter praise of his own.  Harry's opposition research team was working overtime digging up the honey on Karee Bear. But it was just too little too late.  Lesson learned Harry and the Rebearlicans?  "Going Positive" early and often is the path of victory in Bearanda!

rUD is an even tinier bear from the state of Honeyrado in Bearanada.  He's only two years old with extremely short arms (he's hug-challenged which can be a problem in Bearanada -- he makes up for it with his extraordinarily long nose which he loves to give ear kisses with). He was born in Jamleton, a suburb on the outskirts of The City.

rUD is a Berry Bear (which photos will attest to), and more than likely you'll see him wearing his Love T-shirt (and nothing else).  rUD especially loves cereal with honey and non-fat milk on it.  He loves to listen to bed-time stories or waking stories (with noon-time stories or nap-time coming in a close second and third respectively).  Dinner-time stories are pretty okay with him too.
