"For John Kerry": Concord-Monitor Endorses John Kerry

[Feanorcurufinwe]

We chose the candidate best prepared to be president.

To say, on the eve of the First in the Nation Primary, that America is at a crossroads is an understatement. The country is at war on several fronts, mired in Iraq and facing the danger that even more will be asked of its overextended forces. The good will of most of the world's nations has turned to enmity.

On the domestic front the situation is equally perilous. The economy, if it is rebounding, is doing so in a way that promises to leave more and more Americans behind. The nation's health care system is on life support. Red ink spills from the budget, and the national debt has hit $7 trillion. The gap between the haves and have-nots has grown, and the Bush administration's tax policies promise to widen it.

Several of the Democrats seeking the presidency have the ability to alter America's course. But one is better prepared than the rest. Only Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts has well-reasoned and rock-solid answers to every question, foreign or domestic. Kerry is prepared to take office tomorrow.

2. This was posted last night

That's probably why it's not getting alot of attention. Or maybe all the other Kerry people are on the phone, I don't know. But yes, it's a great endorsement and lays out the case for Kerry eloquently. We're moving!

3. I'm back at it.

And this is a great endorsement. I am happy about it, however I wish that Kerry's efforts to expose BCCI and IranContra were given more attention.

7. Excellent endorsement

re: the South:

There are some who fear that a northerner can no longer be chosen to lead this nation. But Kerry's history of service to his country in peacetime and war will serve him well when the race moves out of New Hampshire. The men from the South, Midwest and West who put their faith in him on the Navy patrol boat he commanded in Vietnam's Mekong Delta found that what matters is not where you're from but what you do.
