Wow.. Back in 2004, Obama spoke for Kerry becoming President and just a few years later, look how history has changed! Kerry is now speaking for President Obama. I am both in awe and amazed at Barack Obama since I first watched his 2004 convention speech.
Thats because France didn't want him;He served four months in vietnam ,And tryed everything he could to get out, thats where three purple hearts gets you, early out.Thanks for your service Kerry you coward.
Soldiers did do those things in Vietnam... Vietnam was a terrible war and many traumatized soliders did terrible things. Kerry was there. You weren't. And it is disgraceful for you to spit on him for it.
It's about time Democrats got pissed off or pissed on enough to get pissed off and start fighting fire with fire. My problem with the Dems have always been the lack of back bone and to much playing nice, nice when dealing with the pugs. It's about time and hopefully not too late. Well done, Senator.
I had never heard him before. He did a good job for the President.The president has done more for veterans/veteran affiars than any body in recent years. pulling out of Iraq and planning a pull out from Afghanistan will bring joy to thousands of american families.
"The only thing exceptional about today's Republicans is that, almost without exception, they oppose everything that has made America exceptional in the first place." "For Mitt Romney, an overseas trip is what you call it when you trip all over yourself overseas." Well-spoken, Senator.
Funny how the republican party are still split and angry over who they nominated. The Ron Paul debacle at the RNC was a sign of the failure of the republican party.
This doesn't really have anything to do with my comment. My point was that to spit on Kerry, a war vet, for speaking out against a war he fought in and against the attrocities that really DID happen there, is pretty disgraceful.
I am not quite sure what point you are making, but what I do mean to say in plain terms is that I am an old, white guy who is a solid Barack Obama supporter and could NEVER vote GOP in its current form. It is an ideology that is dated and has too much in common with the Taliban
Romney is a Mormon. His wife never goes to work but stay at home . And she is proud. This is very very common in lds woman. I cant imagine if romeny win. If he win，what about woman right？？？？？？？
Well not really missteps, he just didn't have that "Fire" in his mindset. He let Republicans disrespect him and his military service. He just lacked the balls to stand up for himself.
Erik, roads existed for decades (and in some places centuries) in this country BEFORE we became the United States. Many of the old roads, built by loggers or traders are over top of ancient American-Indian roads... so YES it was private individuals and private industry. And when FDR's TVA did the Interstates and Highways, it wasn't through the glory of government, it was with our taxed-labor and the debt collateralized on the backs of future generations. You are the clueless warrior here.
EXCEPT...ones a vet and ones not. One belongs to the party that killed Bin Laden and one doesn't. One belongs to the party that endorsed torture and one doesn't...and one belongs to the party who ushered in the economic crisis and one doesn't. Good luck on the answers to that 'arduous' questionnaire. ;-)
its been years but i thought we did see this Kerry, the problem is he voted to give Bush the authority to invade Iraq, and I think that hurt his credibility.
Another lame Fox News/Limbaugh talking point (no news is Faux News). Obama would've filled that stadium easily in good weather. The stadium was already pre-reserved for 92% capacity when they called it off because of bad weather forecasts...Fox News would've loved it if some poor souls got hit by lightning (they'd never shut up about it!). You don't hear Fox talking much about Romney 1200 in the 65,000 seat Detroit Lions Stadium. Now, That's "funny" for you, "Admiral".
And John, who has a net worth of $626 million, will influence your opinion? I just paid my gas bill and it hurt me, and I am worried about my rent. This man, along with the right wing popular fellows can buy islands, and we are voting for them? Really? What do they know about 40-50 hour work weeks that barely get us by people..... I'll tell you.... Nothing, they are out of touch with you, and with me.
Good for you. You can't have Communism without socialism,but socialism is not a bad thing. There are numerous countries around the globe who prosper under it. Take a look at conservatism and corporatism. Fiscally bad, but not morally. From that you get Fascism, like what Hitler ended up with. An extreme is an extreme and whether its right or left, radicalism simply leads to dictatorship. Please be a bit more observant.
"Talk about being for it before you were against it." Haha, always love when Politicians are ok with poking a little fun at themselves. Even Kerry couldn't help laughing as he said that one. Love it. This is actually a great and important speech. This might be the first time in decades that the Dem candidate appears to the masses to be by far the stronger candidate on foreign policy.
Hey so about the "civilized world"..is everyone there ignorant to the fact that mentioning God would technically be promoting certain religions? And why is it civilized to give liberties people based on their gender? Im not sure if you really understand the definition of "morals" cause that implies certain codes of conduct based on religion.. did you mean ethics? So which source did you hear these facts from, Fox News, your local catholic priest, or your parents mouths ever since you were a kid?
Well spoken politicalscientist99! I would have preferred to see Osama stand trial however. There may be those who have motives against his testifying. We might have learned things.
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.: He tried to avoid $500K in his home state's sales and excise taxes by docking his newly purchased $7 million 76-foot yacht in Rhode Island.
This is the kind of speech he should have given in 2004. Tough and passionate
Where the hell was THIS John Kerry 8 years ago?
I have NEVER been so proud to have John Kerry representing my state in the US Senate. He's clearly learned from his missteps in '04.
🤣
Where was this John Kerry in 2004?
he "s an exceptional man (john kerry ) talking about an exceptional man ( president obama )
"Before you debate President Barak Obama, finish the debate with yourself first..."
Best line so far of all the speeches in both conventions.
One of Kerry's best speeches!
Great speech! Sense of humor, right amount of sarcasm! And to the point about GOP's candidate's international experience. Funny and true to the point!
Excellent, excellent speaker.
And what are you going to do to stop him?
AGREED!!
"Ask Osama Bin Laden if he's better off now than he was 4 years ago."
He should've been elected in 2004.
Where in the bluest of all bells was this guy in 2004?
"Ask Osama Bin Laden if he was better off than he was 4 years ago."
LOL, EPIC PWNAGE.
Where was this guy in 2004?
Wow.. Back in 2004, Obama spoke for Kerry becoming President and just a few years later, look how history has changed! Kerry is now speaking for President Obama.
I am both in awe and amazed at Barack Obama since I first watched his 2004 convention speech.
why can't Kerry and Clinton just do a fusion like DBZ and become Kerrlynton the super president?
The first presidential candidate that I ever voted for was Senator John Kerry. This is why.
Kerry our next Sec of
state
If he had spoken like this in 2004 he'd have been president these last 8 years.
Bravo, REMATERD!
Navy Seals have a commander and chief. Is it so difficult to give a black man the credit he deserves? That's sad...2012. Despicable.
Thats because France didn't want him;He served four months in vietnam ,And tryed everything he could to get out, thats where three purple hearts gets you, early out.Thanks for your service Kerry you coward.
Soldiers did do those things in Vietnam...
Vietnam was a terrible war and many traumatized soliders did terrible things. Kerry was there. You weren't. And it is disgraceful for you to spit on him for it.
Wtf? What an unexpectedly exceptional speech from Kerry.
Well, if it isn't the man that should've been the 43rd president. He's looking (and sounding) well.
9:02 "For Mitt Romney, an overseas trip is what you call it when you trip all over yourself overseas."
Very well-spoken.
You had me at exceptional. Bravo Senator Kerry.
It's about time Democrats got pissed off or pissed on enough to get pissed off and start fighting fire with fire. My problem with the Dems have always been the lack of back bone and to much playing nice, nice when dealing with the pugs. It's about time and hopefully not too late. Well done, Senator.
Shorter John Kerry: "Swiftboat THIS, biotches"
He kind of sounds like Professor Farnsworth in his younger years. Another reason to vote for Mr. Obama!
Looks like Secretary of State material to me.
Kerry and Romney are both sophisticated. I'd like to see them in a debate or is there already one between them?
Too bad that version of John Kerry was MIA in 2004.
u must be his veteran friend from Nam. nice to meet you.
Mitt Romney will never be the same.
he was too nice...but hes always been a good man.
'Twas a simpler time in 2012. We didn't have such a cancerous time in politics.
Kerry put some ketchup on it!!!! lol
Say hello to your new Secretary of State, America.
I had never heard him before. He did a good job for the President.The president has done more for veterans/veteran affiars than any body in recent years. pulling out of Iraq and planning a pull out from Afghanistan will bring joy to thousands of american families.
"The only thing exceptional about today's Republicans is that, almost without exception, they oppose everything that has made America exceptional in the first place."
"For Mitt Romney, an overseas trip is what you call it when you trip all over yourself overseas."
Well-spoken, Senator.
Facts? Prove your argument! Otherwise you are just blowing hot air.
Greaaaat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great speech. Hopefully Biden taps him for Secretary of State - we need someone smart like him to restore our moral authority and broken alliances.
Funny how the republican party are still split and angry over who they nominated. The Ron Paul debacle at the RNC was a sign of the failure of the republican party.
Well, I didn't.
I laughed my ass off when he said that.
This doesn't really have anything to do with my comment. My point was that to spit on Kerry, a war vet, for speaking out against a war he fought in and against the attrocities that really DID happen there, is pretty disgraceful.

How would he have lost his presidency? Y'all are saying cause he did one thing he should get reelected?
you have it all backwards
Puke! Pure BS from both parties.
What an amazing speech! This guy should run for president, haha!
Americans really believe that they won both world wars? Really? Huehuehuehuehuehuehue
What the fuck happened to Kerry's badass face :(
Erik, roads existed for decades (and in some places centuries) in this country BEFORE we became the United States.
Many of the old roads, built by loggers or traders are over top of ancient American-Indian roads... so YES it was private individuals and private industry.

You are the clueless warrior here.
You can catch John at the Laugh Factory all next week. Get your tix early.
Well done. Great speech.
Obama for 2012!
He did
Romney 1040!
Obama 2012!
Kerry to Mitt Romney after he loses the election: "it would be very painful...for you"
EXCEPT...ones a vet and ones not. One belongs to the party that killed Bin Laden and one doesn't. One belongs to the party that endorsed torture and one doesn't...and one belongs to the party who ushered in the economic crisis and one doesn't. Good luck on the answers to that 'arduous' questionnaire. ;-)
Another Archie Bunker: I bet you call your partner "Dingbat" too.
lolol its the horse walks into a bar joke lol..... still .... barack 2012!!!!!!
This is how you fuckin bring it!
its been years but i thought we did see this Kerry, the problem is he voted to give Bush the authority to invade Iraq, and I think that hurt his credibility.

Prettyevagirly:
I am a 56 year old WASP male of Nordic, French and German heritage.
Now what, may I ask, does that imply ?
And John, who has a net worth of $626 million, will influence your opinion? I just paid my gas bill and it hurt me, and I am worried about my rent. This man, along with the right wing popular fellows can buy islands, and we are voting for them? Really? What do they know about 40-50 hour work weeks that barely get us by people..... I'll tell you.... Nothing, they are out of touch with you, and with me.
I have a joke: John Kerry walks into a bar and the bartender asks hey why the long face? Get it John Kerry has a long face! hahaha
JNagarya:
Do you have an obsession with Michelle Kwan ?
yay4u

Go back to a time of debt and intolerance? I don't think so. How about a time of opportunity?
Is this based off conspiracy theories? You don't understand how facts work, do you?
Mitt Romney an over seas trip is when you trip over yourself over seas hahaha this guys awesome OBAMA BABY!!
It's incredibly tough to break through that. People can't agree on the facts. How can you change stuff if you don't know the facts?
I asked the same question!!!!
yeah, the other sides surrendering pretty much proves that.
herman munster:)
I better shut up ... BECAUSE I SUFFER AN ATTACK OR DAWN IN GUANTANAMO ...!!
Trolling again huh Jim? I got 3 words for you...George W. Bush.
Yeah...thats really all. Good luck finding a day job. :-)
ehhhhhhh. what good does talking about a person's death? ppl seriously are fked up.
Proof?
Can you say "Ad hominim attacks"?
Hey so about the "civilized world"..is everyone there ignorant to the fact that mentioning God would technically be promoting certain religions?

*osama's
Why does John Kerry look like the black and white photo of Adam Lanza? I'm just saying.
though i supported him in 2004, if the GOP nominates Marco Rubio (who they most likely will) Kerry will have no chance.
Well spoken politicalscientist99! I would have preferred to see Osama stand trial however. There may be those who have motives against his testifying. We might have learned things.
Mitt Romney and John Kerry are both the same people.They are both rich flip floppers from Massachusetts.
Nah, Obama's Convention speech was truly exceptional and electrifying! And this guy is just bla bla bla.
Skull and Bones in the administration.....THAT MEANS WAR!
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass.: He tried to avoid $500K in his home state's sales and excise taxes by docking his newly purchased $7 million 76-foot yacht in Rhode Island.
It's called aging....
