New Feature - Candidate Review - Foreign Policy - Senator John Kerry

For the next couple of months we are going to review, as best as we can, the Democratic Candidate's positions on various key issues. Probably do this on Friday for now, although I may switch to Monday later on (for about the same reason, Monday and Friday are the slowest news days).

Here's a quote from Sen. John Kerry from his website.

"Americans deserve a principled diplomacy...backed by undoubted military might...based on enlightened self-interest, not the zero-sum logic of power politics...a diplomacy that commits America to lead the world toward liberty and prosperity. A bold progressive internationalism that focuses not just on the immediate and imminent, but insidious dangers that can mount over the next years and decade, dangers that span the spectrum from the denial of democracy, to destructive weapons, endemic poverty and epidemic disease. These are not just issues of international order, but vital issues of our own national security."

Lots of ellipses in that statement. The website focuses on Sen. Kerry's experience as a veteran and as a Senator on the Foreign Relations Committee.
