39. What an eloquent plea....
that sums up how many of us feel, thank you David. John Kerry was my first choice back a few months ago, I gave him every opportunity to come out with both guns blazing to announce to his constituents "I was duped by bush* over the war and I'm MAD AS HELL". This didn't happen, and then Howard Dean came along, a little known candidate from the small state of Vermont with a fire and and a determination to get this country back on track that excited and exhilarated many of us that thought our voices weren't being heard. When Howard Dean, Dennis Kucinich and Bob Graham spoke out against the war during a time when it was tantamount to political suicide, that to me was real bravery. John Kerry was a hero on the battlefield of Viet Nam, but Howard Dean is a hero just the same in my very humble opinion.
Sadly, I think it is too late for John, alot of us have put our enthusiasm and support elsewhere, but John Kerry will always have my respect for his past service to this country and his esteemed career in the senate.
