Sen. Kerry appears in nationwide Parade Magazine.
Edited on Sun Jul-05-09 01:12 PM by wisteria
It is a two page article on politicians who ran for the Presidency and fell short. It has a nice picture of Kerry strumming the guitar and quotes him on why he ran, his priorities, and life after the run. I particularly liked this comment when referring to all of of them,

"The seven living Americans who were the two major parties’ nominees for the Presidency but who didn’t win the White House are still engaged in public life and public service. Ranging in age from 61 to 86, they speak out on civic matters and provoke debate on controversial subjects. Their voices have not been stilled—and their perspectives are still sought."

and.

"It may be that the difference between a politician and a statesman is one lost Presidential campaign, but these seven men are more revered now than ever, their views more respected, their insights deemed more relevant"

1. Interesting.

The Senator still remains very relevant, especially in light of the issues we are facing today, quite a bit more than the man who "beat" him, might I add..:evilgrin:

Thanks for posting!
