If you think I would have gone to war the way George Bush did, don't vote for me.
John F. Kerry
After Mitt Romney said it would be naive to go into Pakistan to pursue the terrorists, it took President Obama, against the advice of many, to give that order and finally rid this earth of Osama bin Laden. Ask Osama bin Laden is he is better off now than he was four years ago.
John F. Kerry
I look forward to standing up and holding George Bush accountable for pushing seniors off of Medicare into HMOs.
John F. Kerry
I would rather be the candidate of the NAACP than the NRA.
John F. Kerry
There is some schedule showing what you (need) to do to get Iraqis standing up and defending themselves which is now suddenly beginning to happen, so there are some signs of progress.
