John Kerry: 'I'm Sort of Thinking 2016'
Weekly Standard ^ | September 4, 2014 | Jeryl Bier

Posted on 09/04/2014 6:32:15 AM PDT by Zakeet

Secretary of State John Kerry's speech at the groundbreaking ceremony for the U.S. Diplomacy Center in Washington, D.C. Wednesday included an intriguing aside that appeared to reference the upcoming 2016 presidential election. Kerry spoke after remarks by each of the five former secretaries of state in attendance: Henry Kissinger, James Baker, III, Madeleine Albright, Colin Powell, and Hillary Clinton (Condoleezza Rice and George Shultz were not present.) After extolling the accomplishments of each of the five former top diplomats, Kerry said, "Join me, all of you, in thanking five of our six living former secretaries of state... They all look so great, it makes me -- I'm sort of thinking 2016, OK." The audience laughed.

Of course Kerry is thinking about 2016. Why else would he have had his face reconfigured the way he did?

Unfortunately, he’s too stupid to realize that it wasn’t his face that lost him the election.

47% will obviously vote for a German Shepherd so long as the checks keep coming.

Oh please run, Kerry. It’ll make it that much easier.

Lurch 2 will be a flop, but lately Kerry has been hearing his own voice, and thinks it is greatness the world must have.

When I first saw the thread title I thought Kerry had been asked, what comes after 2015.

‘If Old Horseface is going to challenge HITLARY ! for the communist democrat party nomination maybe he will leak the truth of her screw ups and lies about Benghazi.’

That would be good. What would make it even better is if she responded by leaking the truth about Kerry’s military record. That’s the only way we’ll ever see it/know; Kerry will NEVER sign the 180 Form.

Well if Kerry takes the Democrat nomination and Romney takes the Republican nomination then we can have a battle of the losers.

I’d love to see Kerry, Gore, Warren and Hildabeast savage one another as they all four run.

“Sort of thinking...” For John Kerry is a headline in itself.

The more the merrier. Make them and their supporters spend their cash!

But I’d like to keep the number of GOP entries down - if there are too many conservatives, the GOP-E candidate will win.

I’d vote for MY German shepherd over any democrat, at this point. Near as I can tell, he doesn’t hate this country and would do a better job than the current office occupant.

They could run Kerry vs. Romney and call it “The Biggest Loser” contest. < / sarcasm >

I positively, absolutely, without reservation, hate that son of a bitch.

I actually remember his antics...throwing his "medals" over the White House fence...denouncing his own brothers-in-arms as "Genghis Khan" wannabes...all of it.

I have a very long memory and I will denounce him every chance I get.

But lately, I find myself hating obama even more.
