John Kerry Backs Out of the 2008 Race to Inform Others of Global Warming



John Kerry, the losing 2004 presidential candidate, has decided not to seek the Democratic nomination in 2008. Kerry now wants to focus on remaining in the Senate to change the direction of George W. Bush"s "misguided" war in Iraq. The senator from Massachusetts did a "flip flop", saying that he made a mistake in voting for the 2002 congressional resolution authorising the $87bn Iraq war.

Mr Kerry says that he now wants to make amends for his mistake during the remaining two years of Bush"s presidency. During his speech declaring his future intentions, Kerry almost choked back tears at one point. Among the leading presidential candidates, only Hillary Clinton has declined to admit her vote for the 2002 resolution was a mistake. However, her criticism of Bush"s strategy have restored some of her credibility within her party.

Kerry wants to introduce legislation that would set a firm one-year deadline for the redeployment of most American troops from Iraq. In addition, he wants to change the American military mission to training Iraqi security forces and counter-terrorism operations. Kerry also proposes to launch a major diplomatic initiative to provide a sustainable resolution in Iraq, which he believes is the only way forward for America.

John Kerry falls with a group of politicians that are considered "losers". As he lost the Presidency to George Bush, very few people are going to support Kerry again this time. They will view him as someone that cannot win, cannot appeal to mainstream voters. Not a good position to be for any potential candidate.

John Kerry intends to spend his time supporting global warming.
