2. A must see.
Such wisdom, panache, and caginess. I was too involved to take notes, and commend all those who can. His respectful posture was appropriate, giving suggestions and areas to negotiate.

Many across America do not know we are an international pariah, and I can imagine the GOP tagging that to the rest of their permanent bag of insults. That's all they could come away with, from important comments?

Amazing that anyone can listen to all he said and try to distort. Knowingly tell lies, and not giving due respect to Kerry, treating their hatchet job like a sleazy day at the office. Knowingly assassinate such good character.

A reporter suggested that the next candidate for president, Hillary, should do more diplomacy. No cutaway to Kerry.

Still mad, each time I see his excellence, that the Dem party, knowing who he is, consider a friend, could not help more in his bid for president. In the reality of what that campaign was, in wartime, let some guilt or regret change their current behavior.

Joe Lockhart, the one looking for future work after the campaign, during the campaign, said Kerry should understand that (pronoungate) can end a campaign. I'm waiting for a Hillary gaffe, and will email Joe.

How must Kerry feel, knowing he's a better leader than they seem to acknowledge. Bill3's bamboozling grasp?

Hillbilly are definitely going the hawk's route, straddling for two more years.

Issues, issues, no candidate for me. Safeguarding our vote will take all we have. Helping each and every state actually audit and pass legislation.

4. One thing that stuck in mind...
...was the mention of the meeting with Abbas very shortly after the 04 election, and how he said (paraphrasing of course) how affected he was by the importance of the lost election in the context of what he would have been able to do to help Abbas and move forward the whole palestinian issue, things that of course were not done by the administration, and we have the terrible mess over there that we hear about all the time (just read a few minutes ago about more clashes between Hamas and Fatah factions). God, what a loss!!!! Nowadays, instead of enjoying seeing and listening to JK, I just get MAD and FRUSTRATED like hell. APologies for the shouting, but it IS maddening.

5. Agree
Lots of people have dropped the ball, but I did understand the two months after reaction to not being able to help in a significant way like he wanted and would have. Watching again, and so appreciate of the information and points he's making. Not naive, but still hopeful.

Also mad as hell he doesn't have the power he could wield so wisely.
