Vietnam veteran supports Barack Obama 


Presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) is taking advantage of Sen. John Kerry’s (D-Mass.) coveted e-mail list as he continues to campaign throughout the vital primary states....

Kerry, the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, gave the first-term senator the imprimatur of the party’s establishment with his endorsement. More importantly, Kerry lent a valuable fundraising resource to Obama as the Illinois Democrat prepares for January contests in Nevada and South Carolina, and then in 22 states on Feb. 5. E-mail blasts calling for contributions can produce quick fundraising results for campaigns as well, potentially in the millions of dollars.

Link.

Let the phrase "Secretary of State John Kerry" roll around in your brain for a little while, and then pour yourself a stiff drink.

God, that's a grim notion. Still, maybe his magic boonie hat could work wonders.

Maybe Francois will return to Paris in military uniform and negotiate with the auto torchers.

I'd like to see Secretary of State Bill Richardson and Attorney General John Edwards under President Obama.

Do you seriously mean to tell us you are not looking forward to finally h having a Secretary of State who is fully in touch with the pulsing anger and social energy of authentic urban street rhythms?

Gordon - "Attorney General John Edwards" is just about the most revolting thing I could possibly imagine. Goddamn, you really know how to stick it in and twist.

Cass - I admit, I will be very sad when we no longer have John Kerry to kick around.

He served in Viet Nam? I never would have guessed...
