Kerry on Meet the Press
I just finished watching John Kerry on Meet the Press. Overall, I felt he did a good job responding to the questions... though he did give a few pat answers and swerved onto talking points. But, that is the modus operandi for politicians.
This is what concerns me most about what I saw...
There are some issues that Kerry is really pushing in his campaign (such as changing the tax code for "Benedict Arnold" coporations who move overseas) that have been present in American government for years and years. This guy has been a Senator for 17 years and yet no mention of the problem till he is running for President?
When he talks about how he going to change all of this supposed injustice that has existed for so long... I want to ask him what legislation he has sponsored in 17 years to remedy the same problem.
