John Kerry is a bright, articulate guy, a thinker, a fellow who takes
advantage of his liberal arts education and on major issues, ponders
alternatives, sees a number of sides, and tries to fomulate solutions
that take into account the fact that some challenges cannot be solved
with simple-minded sound-bites or putting on a jump suit and pretending
you're a soldier.

In other words, he is somewhat of an intellectual, a man who is capable
of thinking and does so.




There's no doubt John Kerry is bright and articulate and has used those
virtues to position himself for his life goal of being president. I
have a
fundamental problem with that. I can respect those that have filled
their
bucket with some life experience and then become motivated to make a
difference. Kerry has been running for president since his high school
days
and I can't believe the motivation is anything other than personal.

I don't have a problem with Kerry's lifelong political ambitions. Some
of our best politicians have had that kind of drive. One of my favorite
Republicans, Bob Dole, went into politics almost immediately after the
the big war, and remained there until the end of his elected political
career.






\\\ Over
the years I've watched him talk the talk but not walk the walk. He
programmed himself 40 years ago in the style of his idol, JFK, but he is
no
JFK.


No, he isn't. No one had the style of JFK.

Billy Bob Clinton had JFK's ability to fabricate events, see Ted too, and
had a taste for ladies that were not his wife.
