Kerry Rally

I attended a John Kerry rally on Monday night in Boston. You can see above (click image for a larger view) that Teresa Heinz-Kerry was on stage with him. She talked about growing up in Mozambique, a colonial dictatorship, and seeing her father vote for the first time at age 71. She talked about marching against apatheid in the 1950s in South Africa. She's pretty incredible.

I really want to believe what John Kerry says about health care. He says he'll give every American access to the healthcare plan that Congress and the President already have. If he's elected, I truly hope he can make that happen.

One thing I like very much about John Kerry is his stand on Armenian issues. He has fought for U.S. recognition of the Armenian Genocide. Unfortunately George W. Bush has fought against passage of the Genocide Resolution in both the Senate and House. That's depressing.
