I'm reminded of the time I saw JFK(the first one)in person when-- |

I see all that is going on in Boston(I live in the area)
I was out of my mind with excitement.
It was the night before the election in 1960 and he had returned home to vote.

I grew up in the northeast but am now living in N.C. so I was out of my mind with excitement in anticipation of Edwards getting picked for VP and then a week of elation, so I can imagine how you are even more excited over Kerry and the convention in Boston.

I never got to see JFK in person. I live in the DC 'burbs and I also feel the excitement.

3. I only got to see and shake the hand of Johnson. |
