BOSTON - Bill Clinton (news - web sites) had the spotlight on Day One of John Kerry (news - web sites)'s convention, as the soon-to-be Democratic presidential nominee cast for votes in Florida. Amid tight security, convention delegates readied for an evening of speeches with a day of parties.
The prime-time speech by Clinton, the last Democrat to occupy the White House, was to cap a first night of the convention focused on Kerry's stated vision for America: a strong economy, a growing middle class, affordable health care and a beefed-up military.
The former president dismissed any idea he might overshadow Kerry.
