12. Great news! John Kerry has been a critical ally to Obama's success since 2004
Wed Aug 29, 2012, 04:00 PM
Aug 2012

When Obama gave the keynote in Boston for Kerry and launched his political stardom.

I know it is popular to ridicule Kerry because he lost to Bush but the man still had some 50 million people vote for him and is an American hero. The lying swift-boat a-holes cannot take that away from him.

But not only is Kerry a true hero and patriot he is an amazing speaker and will do a great job prepping the crowd for Biden and Obama.

I cannot wait!
