Here is the text of John Kerry’s wonderful speech last night at the DNC. I wasn’t excited before, but I sure am now. He has lived his whole life to be president of the United States. Let’s get rid of the loser we’ve got in there now and put in someone who was meant to be there!
I think this was my favorite part of the speech last night:
We welcome people of faith. America is not us and them…I want to say this to you tonight: I don’t wear my own faith on my sleeve. But faith has given me values and hope to live by, from Vietnam to this day, from Sunday to Sunday. I don’t want to claim that God is on our side. As Abraham Lincoln told us, I want to pray humbly that we are on God’s side. And whatever our faith, one belief should bind us all: The measure of our character is our willingness to give of ourselves for others and for our country.
and this
That flag doesn’t belong to any president. It doesn’t belong to any ideology and it doesn’t belong to any political party. It belongs to all the American people.
