Let's destroy this young demagogue before he becomes another Ralph Nader
Edited on Thu Oct-14-04 08:36 PM by billbuckhead
That's what the Nixon White House decided about John Kerry. They thought he was too Kennedy like. They said he a lot of 'lettuce", the military really needs these kind of people when they're losing and Nixon was respectful.

It's on PBS and I think it's damaging to Bush and helps Kerry, not as much it should.

Looks like they failed. JK is about to become another JFK.

3. Yep. Kerry's been fighting these bastards for over 30 years. He's one of
the few left standing.

He KNOWS how to beat them.

4. I saw a PBS documentary of that last night
when Kerry debates the handpicked Nixon boy who is supposed to destroy Kerry. Kerry takes John O'Neil to task on the Dick Cavet show and throttles him.

5. Is there a source for that quote?
Or is that paraphrased? I am talking to the media in a few days as a Nader voter in 2000 now 100% for Kerry in 2004. If I could cite a quote like that, that would be great!

7. Douglas Brinkley said it in an interview, so it's probably in his book.

16. Found it...thanks!
This quote will go over well with the local news and Nader supporters. It paints Kerry as an enemy of the corrupt state and shows that he is a champion for social justice, just like Nader!
