How do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?
John F. Kerry
No one is going to question my commitment to the defence of our nation. I don't know what it is these Republicans, who didn't serve in any war, have against those of us who are Democrats who did.

John F. Kerry
I do think that it's really important for leaders of countries to be very clear and careful in the statements they make because their words are weighed extremely carefully by other countries, and you have to create a continuity of seriousness and of credibility in order to be able to be taken seriously and get things done.
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
Unlike George Bush and his friends at the big oil companies, I'm going to work for a real energy policy for this country that decreases America's dependence on foreign oil and helps lower the costs to American families.
John F. Kerry
Climate change is real. The science is compelling. And the longer we wait, the harder the problem will be to solve.
John F. Kerry
You just don't in the 21st century behave in 19th century fashion by invading another country on completely trumped up pre-text.
John F. Kerry
America is the one that leads the effort to make sure the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea is protected.
John F. Kerry
I actually did vote for the $87 billion, before I voted against it.
John F. Kerry
Those who doubted whether Iraq or the world would be better off without Saddam Hussein, and those who believe today that we are not safer with his capture, don't have the judgment to be President.
John F. Kerry
Remember the hours after Sept. 11 when we came together as one...It was the worst day we have ever seen, but it brought out the best in all of us.
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
I think that our own crisis of democracy is in its own way affecting our ability to leverage in the same way that we used to in the world.
John F. Kerry
President Clinton was often known as the first black president. I wouldn't be upset if I could earn the right to be the second.
