Vanessa Kerry stumps for dad in state [CA]

Vanessa Kerry, 26, appeared at Claremont McKenna College in Claremont and addressed a black women's group at the University of Southern California.

The third-year medical student said she took time off from school to work on the campaign because she was frustrated by what she considers inadequate health care and other problems confronting Americans.

5. Pickles already stated
the twins were going on the camp trail..ought to be good..let's see how quick someone asks them a question before they have time to think of how to answer..what really would be great is if they'd admit they're in disagreement w/ what daddy's doing to the people..I believe one of the twins is a liberal..
