All Call Veterans and Supporters
We the Veterans For Kerry Il are now backing Senator Obama for President. He sat on the Veterans Committee and fought for our benefits. We have sent a email to John Hurley the Veteran who ran the Country for Veterans For Kerry asking him for his support. Since John Kerry will not run for President we think we have picked the best Democrat in the race to win. We ask you for your support!

2. Sorry, I am a veteran who supports Kerry, and I am not endorsing anyone.
I wasn't part of the official Veterans for Kerry organization in 2004, but I just want to be clear that there are veterans who support John Kerry, who do not feel compelled to endorse ANYONE at this time.

Personally and speaking for no one but myself, I am appalled and disgusted by this early positioning for the 2008 presidential race, and all the corporate and special-interest money that will be required to mount a campaign.

Since I live in a state with zero say in the selection of the nominee, I will have the luxury of voting in the primary for the person I want as my candidate - even if I have to write him in.

4. Monkeyman, don't you want to see who all the candidates are first?
Or have you already made up your mind?

5. We voted last night the candidate's running do not have our issues
in their hearts. We have talked to all running we hear talk no action. Obama showed us action. Here is one example.

8. Who is "We the Veterans For Kerry Il?"
Who I support depends on who all ends up running. Who is this group?
