I Got To Talk To KERRY LIVE at a rally!!!!!
I was at the rally at Tougaloo College in Mississippi today. I got to ask him the 3rd question he answered. I cant believe I actually stood right in front of and talked to the next President of the United States. I asked him about 9/11 and Bush stonewalling the investigation. He was incredible. I also asked him to tell his Wife Teresa that we love her in Mississippi and we cant wait until she is First Lady.
One lady was booed when she criticized Kerry on his stance on gay issues but other than that, it was a great rally.

1. Way to go, millsaps28! Was this you?
Kerry says Bush "stonewalling'' 9-11, intelligence inquiries

MIKE GLOVER, Associated Press Writer Sunday, March 7, 2004

(03-07) 14:27 PST JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- John Kerry on Sunday accused President Bush of "stonewalling" separate inquiries into the events leading up to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorists attacks, as well as into the intelligence that suggested Saddam Hussein was hiding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

Kerry, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, parried complaints by members of a federal commission investigating the attacks that Bush was resisting their efforts to get documents and question witnesses.

"Why is this administration stonewalling and resisting the investigation into what happened and why we had the greatest security failure in the history of our country?" Kerry said at a hastily arranged news conference.

"The American people deserve an answer now," Kerry said. "The immediate instinct of the Republicans and this administration was to shut it down."

3. That's A little before me.
Actually, that question was aked at the confrence before the rally. I was in the room with everyone else and was not aware that that question had just beenasked by the commission.

On a side note, I had my first experience with the Secret Service when one of them escorted me to the front (face to face) to ask him a question. I'm so excited!!!

4. If I had a chance to meet John Kerry, I'd like to have the guts to
pull a "Forrest Gump" and tell him, "I gotta pee!"

Wonder what his reaction would be?

Hope he has a sense of humor.
