Finally...a Hispanic / Latino poster that does NOT scream "Viva Bush"

"This president likes to say he's a leader," Kerry said in remarks prepared for delivery Wednesday. "Mr. President, look behind you. There's no one there. It's not leadership if no one follows."

Kerry said U.S. leaders must stop treating other countries with "contempt," driving them away from a role in Iraqi security and reconstruction. He also repeated charges that the president's conduct made the U.S. weaker, not stronger, in the war on terrorism.

Kerry criticized Bush over the nation's supply of flu vaccine, and said the president had presided over a four-year "all-out assault" on Social Security. The four-term Massachusetts senator said the vaccine shortage was a result of a "failure of leadership" by the man in the White House.

"If you can't get flu vaccines to Americans how are you going to protect them against bioterrorism?" Kerry said in an interview with National Public Radio. "If you can't get flu vaccines to Americans, what kind of health care program (are) you running?

"I will not privatize Social Security. I will not cut benefits. I will not raise the retirement age," he said. "Because when you've worked hard for a lifetime, America owes you what you've earned."
