Kerry on C-Span 1
Says that he has a team of 2000 lawyers assembled to make sure that this is a fair election. Says he is looking at places where voters may be turned away as well as voting machines themselves. Good to see that he is on top of this.

1. Freudian slip alert!
When asked about his stated opinion that Dick Cheney was an unusually powerful VP:

"Yes, I think Cheney is the most powerful President-VICE-President, excuse me, in history..." Heh heh heh...

2. I'm watching it now
He says he will roll back big media!

He has my vote now for sure, as that's a big issue for me.

The media could attack him now, and prop up Bush.

This will help Kerry though with people like me.

5. Trusting Bush a mistake
Alot of great points in that interview.

She asked him about mistakes he'd made, like they did George Bush. He said he'd made mistakes in his early political days, then said trusting George Bush on the war and voting for Scalia.

He also said he'd give one press conference a month and he will STILL call into Imus on occasion. And his concerns about the media and corporate control. Also said if a President believes in his policies, then going in front of the American people to explain them should be the natural thing to do. Also talked about having experts with all views discussing with the American people all the issues that are facing us.

And, he will not appoint a Supreme Court Justice who doesn't believe the right to privacy in having an abortion is a constitutional right.

Great interview, it answers alot of questions some people were asking.
