Kerry is the nice one.

blame the staff !
"kerry" as such does not even exist- he is an empty suit, or an inflatable doll if you wish - a figurehead, a fiction. Thus, "kerry" [for the lack of a better word, and also due to the language convention, it has to be referred to as "kerry" or "he", in quotation marks] is indeed a creature of "his" handlers - be they called staff or by any other name.
