Mr. Kerry you have objected to President Bush's conduct of the War on Terror and much of American foreign policy in response to the 9/11 attacks. Assuming you are elected you will become responsible for the conduct of the war and diplomacy immediately upon taking office. Since national security is such a critical issue in the upcoming election, and given your persistent criticism of the President on this issue, you must be giving it serious thought. Who are you considering for the positions of Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State?

I'd love to hear his answer to this question, but I know it will never happen. Kerry can't claim he has given it no thought as he would look like a fool. Therefore, he would have to answer truthfully which would blow the whole issue for him given his record on national security issues. Or he would have to try to spin his answer which would leave him open to challenge on the national security issue.
