Any chance John Kerry will run for POTUS in 2016? [View all] MoonRiver Feb 2013 OP

IMHO, No...... Swede Atlanta Feb 2013 #1

Hillary left her deal for Keystone pipeline unsigned so she wouldn't be hurt by it. blm Feb 2013 #4

Again with this? Beacool Feb 2013 #17

State Dept had largest role in influencing the decision. Bill is urging acceptance still. blm Feb 2013 #18

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Beacool Feb 2013 #19

Nope - I just believe in accuracy and playing as a team. And sometimes it is blm Feb 2013 #25

Play as a team, but put Hillary45 down ??? graham4anything Feb 2013 #29

Kerry is not running for prez, this exchange is about Hillary's Keystone deal. blm Feb 2013 #31

The thread says any chance JK will run. How is the thread not about the Presidency? graham4anything Feb 2013 #39

I responded to Swede's post. Guess you skipped that part to get your anti-Kerry rants in. blm Feb 2013 #51

His response was to the OP as was mine. graham4anything Feb 2013 #59

I really enjoy the character you play in this forum. It's kinda creative in a way. nt Guy Whitey Corngood Feb 2013 #81

You gratuitously threw in a Hillary attack on an OP about Kerry. Beacool Feb 2013 #44

I can stand that they are popular - I can't stand that they favor their power over blm Feb 2013 #45

"Accurately" in this case is a matter of opinion. Beacool Feb 2013 #58

Isn't there enough blame to go around if Keystone goes through? Jackpine Radical Feb 2013 #76

In this case, praise or blame, will be with the person who signs the bill. Beacool Feb 2013 #85

Apparently he has not ruled it out: Freddie Stubbs Feb 2013 #2

Interesting! MoonRiver Feb 2013 #5

Battenfield is not credible, he's a longtime RW agitator doing what he always does in Mass... blm Feb 2013 #13

The Herald is not credible KamaAina Feb 2013 #49

I think he'll be spent after serving as SOS Auggie Feb 2013 #3

Same here! loyalsister Feb 2013 #28

I was wondering about that too. EC Feb 2013 #6

I dont think so. Mass Feb 2013 #7

That post is steeped in ignorance of who Kerry is and how he has lived his life. blm Feb 2013 #14

Ignorant of reality? aptal Feb 2013 #15

Your post is absurd. No one ever attacked Romney for BEING rich, it was his policies blm Feb 2013 #16

That's absurd. Plenty of people attacked Romney for being rich. hughee99 Feb 2013 #37

You're wrong - they attacked a rich man who had no clue how others lived and pointed fingers at them blm Feb 2013 #46

long before anyone knew about his 47% comments, Rafalca and car elevators hughee99 Feb 2013 #52

That's silly - HOW Romney governed and his policies were the reason, not his wealth on its own. blm Feb 2013 #54

Then what does a car elevator or show horse have to do with any of it? hughee99 Feb 2013 #57

If you're doing your best to degrade conditions for working families, then blm Feb 2013 #69

Fair enough... hughee99 Feb 2013 #75

Not a matter of sides - Romney GOVERNED like a rich asshole and was called out for it. blm Feb 2013 #79

You're not being fair to Kerry. Beacool Feb 2013 #20

The wealth has always been kept separate. You wouldn't learn that in the RW radio blm Feb 2013 #23

It isn't about RW talking points aptal Feb 2013 #33

HAHAH - yes, because you wouldn't dare post your research into your CLAIMS blm Feb 2013 #47

You are entitled to your "feelings." However, Kerry is one of our best liberals. emulatorloo Feb 2013 #63

And therein lies the motive. Claiming Kerry to be equal to Romney is a RW ploy. blm Feb 2013 #71

Let me know when you can show that Kerry held some kid down and cut off his hair in high school MH1 Feb 2013 #22

Kerry and Teresa keep their money separated legally. Kerry inherited some wealth after his blm Feb 2013 #24

It's ridiculous that you think a guy with a 7 Million dollar yacht aptal Feb 2013 #34

He doesn't have a 7 million dollar yacht. hughee99 Feb 2013 #38

And you can be in touch with a man carrying shrapnel in his body? You really want to play blm Feb 2013 #50

You are right I'm wrong... aptal Feb 2013 #60

Romney is a FuckHead leech. Kerry is one of our most liberal Senators emulatorloo Feb 2013 #64

I haven't lied about anything. aptal Feb 2013 #65

Equating Kerry with Romney as you do is a lie about everything. emulatorloo Feb 2013 #66

Exactly. DU is about policy and governance not social status, and any claim blm Feb 2013 #68

JFK and FDR were wealthy. TDale313 Feb 2013 #30

The difference between Kerry & the wealthy Republicans is their priorities. pacalo Feb 2013 #83

And I agree with that as well. aptal Feb 2013 #35

I have a huge amount of respect for SOS Kerry Blue_In_AK Feb 2013 #61

No helveticas Feb 2013 #73

The thought of it probably scares the bejeesus out of the rethugs. lpbk2713 Feb 2013 #74

I still don't think Kerry would be a very electable candidate in 2016. OceanEcosystem Feb 2013 #78

I'll vote for whoever wins the Democratic Party primaries for the 2016 presidential elections.... OldDem2012 Feb 2013 #77
