We deserve a president of the United States who will write laws for all Americans, not for campaign contributors. And I intend to be a president for all Americans who takes back the flag of our country because it doesn't belong to any party, doesn't belong to any president.
John F. Kerry
There is no bigger judgment for a president of the United States than how you take a nation to war.
John F. Kerry
Democrats proposing success in Iraq by political solution.
John F. Kerry
Our purpose now is to reclaim democracy itself. We are here to affirm that when Americans stand up and speak their minds and say America can do better, that is not a challenge to patriotism it is the heart and soul of patriotism.
John F. Kerry
I had a chance to talk with President [Vladimir] Putin and he clearly said to me very directly, I will think about that. I will think about this challenge of how we win. Look, this is not easy for Putin. Everybody says, Oh, Putin's made a big move. Well, Putin is [in Syria] now and if he wants to fight ISIL alone, that's a challenge, folks
John F. Kerry
I have a plan to protect the environment so that we leave this place in better shape to our children than we were handed it by our parents.
John F. Kerry
I will never cede the authority of our country or our security to any other nation. I'll never give a veto over American security to any other entity - not a nation, not a country, not an institution.
John F. Kerry
I’m sick and tired of these despicable Republican attacks that always seem to come from those who never can be found to serve in war, but love to attack those who did. I’m not going to be lectured by a stuffed suit White House mouthpiece standing behind a podium...
John F. Kerry
Think about this: terrorism, epidemics, poverty, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction-all challenges that know no borders-the reality is that climate change ranks right up there with every single one of them.
John F. Kerry
We need a new approach to national security - a bold, progressive internationalism that stands in stark contrast to the too often belligerent and myopic unilateralism of the Bush Administration.
John F. Kerry
I'm proud of my medals. I always was proud of them.
John F. Kerry
