I finally got around to researching his pre-emption policy. Googling on Kerry pre-emption returns this from a site called commondreams:
"Am I prepared as president to go get them before they get us if we locate them and have the sufficient intelligence? You bet I am," he said at a news conference at his Washington headquarters.
Kerry said the intelligence needs to be improved so that the word of a U.S. president "is good enough for people across the world again."
But he added, "I will never allow any other country to veto what we need to do and I will never allow any other institution to veto what we need to do to protect our nation."
