And some reporter should ask him if he plans to be absent from work as much if he becomes President.

"Lord help us!" for sure! Isn't there something in some official documents requiring a first lady to be American? (Probably not; just wishful thinking.)

"Why is this even an issue...He hardly needs the money..."

Then consider that maybe it's not about the money.

For instance, Senator Kerry's home state of Massachusetts has a Republican governor. Senator Kerry is a Democrat. If Senator Kerry resigns his senate seat, then a Republican takes his place.

...And if the good Senator's pay gets docked for failing to show up to vote in the Senate, there will be a hue and cry for him to resign.

So to prevent that hue and cry, he has to fight the docking of his paycheck.

Kerry has voted only 14 times out of the Senate's 112 votes this year...

I wonder how this compares with other senators and representatives that have run for another office while holding their current office.

Yes, how much time will he take off from being president while he is seeking votes to be named the new Secretary General of the UN?-----a position which he obviously feels is more important than president of the USA.

Oklahoma recently punished some state employees for paying "ghost employees". Ghost employees being people on the state payroll who had no real job. Never showed up for work. Just received income because of the good ole boy system. That sounds like Kerry. "John F Kerry aka The Ghost Senator"

Casper Kerry?

EXCELLENT. You rock!

And you are too kind to mock those who freeped you and said it was a waste of time.

Proud of you for taking actions instead of just whining (like I do).

familyofman was one of the nay-sayers I was talking about.

Don't let people like him discourage you. You do more in one day that they have their entire time on this Web site.
All they do is quite, complain, criticize, voice an opinion, etc.

Ignore them. I hope you win and then tell familyofman to stuff it.

Jonathan is a young jewel in FR's crown.... a leader among the many leaders who frequent this site.

If Kerry was voting regularly in the Senate these days, he'd have to take a stand on a multitude of issues. His "most liberal Senator" reputation would be highlighted. All his leftist votes and flip-flops would be in the news every day. He can't afford this at all. So, he IS wise in staying away from DC.

However....he can run, but he can't hide from mighty freeper jmstein7.

Charge!

LBJ did. Texas passed a law to allow him to run as a candidate for both the Senate and the Presidency in 1960...

You did a great job!!!

You obviously are the world's leading authority on this subject and Mark Levin gave you a lot of air time!

jmstein7 pointed out that Kerry was AWOL and therefore under the law should have had his pay docked. He gave the authority supporting his position and then said Kerry is doing a disservice to Mass for not resigning.jmstein7 filed an ethics complaint against Kerry which a few reporters picked up on ...was I right in hearing a NYT's reporter also reported this??

jmstein7 hit a home run!
