218. That actually illustrates the point.
If Kerry wants to be president, then as Chair of a Committee he has to use the power of position to get legislation passed that benefits the Common Good. If Kerry elects to legislate, then getting to the bottom of media malfeasance is perfect and provides the infrastructure to reform the dinosaur media. In one year what will he accomplish that will burnish his skills and talents for the presidency because he needs to have a reason for a renewal of interest in him. That's the part about thinking hard on how he wants the translation from senator to president to be shaped. Kerry worked very hard to get Democrats elected this cycle! Who will be on his team to help him craft legislation that passes? That's part of what Kerry has to think long and hard about - his own peers have their own ambitions. The media plays in the aftermath of his decision about his choice legislation or politicking, not in Kerry's decision about how he best uses this tiny window of opportunity.

Truly admire your endless support of him and the indepth information you know about Kerry. You do him proud! :toast:
