Quoted in a blogad for Lapdogs at The Carpetbagger Report:

"Eric Boehlert asks some tough and compelling questions about what really motivates and moves the American press today. Agree, disagree, but don't ignore -- this is a book all Americans should read." - Sen. John Kerry

3. i'm getting that now, anyone know any other books Kerry reads ?
what was that one book that we saw Kerry had in one of his ads ?


and this from an article during the Primary:

Massachusetts Senator John Kerry's campaign office told BTW that the senator recently read Paris 1919: Six Months That Changed the World by Margaret MacMillan (Random House) and that Trinity by Leon Uris (Bantam), an epic novel taking place during Ireland's struggle for independence, ranks as one of his favorites. In addition, the Arizona Republic's Web site lists Flags of Our Father, a nonfiction book about Iwo Jima by James Bradley and Ron Powers (Bantam), and Undaunted Courage, a biography of Meriwether Lewis that details the opening of the American West, by Stephen Ambrose Pierce (S&S), as favorites of Kerry's as well.

Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran who is now serving his fourth term in the Senate, wrote the autobiographical A Call to Service: My Vision for a Better America (Viking Press) and The New War: The Web of Crime That Threatens America's Security (Touchstone), an overview of international crime published in 1998.
