5. I think he's very involved in working with the Obama ...
...Adminstration to get the best policies for our country. I just think the country would have been so much better off if he had been elected in 2004. So much damage was done between 2000 and 2008.

4. Very good talk.
My beliefs aren't exactly in concert with his on the TARP funding but he has a vision on the whole that really is a fantastic alternative to the Teabagger insanity we're seeing today.

6. Hey, welcome to DU! I've always thought...
...Senator Kerry had the vision we need. I feel better every time I hear him talk about what we need to do. FWIW, I DO think Obama's Admininstration is trying...I just wish we had started sooner. :)

7. John Kerry should have been president.
We wouldn't be in all this mess today.

8. I know. But I'm so glad he...
...is still serving. He could have just walked away, but he didn't. He stays in there and keeps fighting for what he believes will help our country.

:hi:

9. fantastic and important speech, and interview
The MC called Sen. Kerry "the country's leading statesman", and noted that "he's always been a world leader on the environment". Yes, absolutely right.
If you're in despair about the events of the last week, do watch this speech.

12. I agree this speech is really...
...uplifting. IMO, everyone needs to understand that there IS a positive vision for our country if we all help make it so. Senator Kerry does such a good job of laying it out clearly.

I just worry that so many aren't watching. Did you see that 'man-on-the-street' interview where people were asked...in the midst of this budget debate...to identify John Boehner? No one did. THAT's frightening to me. :hi:
