John F. Kerry
I'm going to be honest with you - I don't know a lot about Cuba's healthcare system. Is it a government-run system?

John F. Kerry
Thank you very much for contacting me to express your support for the actions of President Bush in response to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.

John F. Kerry
Great challenges confront our great nation. We seek to meet them by rising to the task, not by defining our country down.
John F. Kerry
So we can do a better job of homeland security. I can do a better job of waging a smarter, more effective war on terror and guarantee that we will go after the terrorists. I will hunt them down, and we'll kill them, we'll capture them. We'll do whatever is necessary to be safe.
John F. Kerry
When I was in Vietnam I learned a lot about the promises that soldiers make to each other. The Marines have a promise to never leave behind their dead. In this country, as citizen soldiers, we need to make the commitment to each other that we will never leave our veterans behind.
John F. Kerry
What we Americans need to do is respect that incredible blessing that we have as a nation and make sure that we are leading in the best ways possible.
John F. Kerry
