Quote by John Kerry (b. 1943)

• I believe America's best days are ahead of us because I believe that the future belongs to freedom, not to fear.

• We must uphold the promise of Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Carter, and Clinton and never allow the President and his Republican friends to threaten Social Security by putting it on the Wall Street trading block.

• How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?

• American can do better, and help is on the way.

• I would rather be the candidate of the NAACP than the NRA.

• I'm glad the President finally found an economic development program. I'm just sad that it's only in Baghdad.
