2002 script of a Kerry video - found looking for something completely different than this

Pretty cool to see the similarity of what he and others put together in 2002 versus memories of 2004. Funny that whoever wrote it, calls his wife, Theresa.

Talk about consistent values, the values expressed about 14 years ago are pretty much JK 2004, JK 2008, and JK now.

I love all the comments, but especially the quips by Vanessa on his coming to school games and Theresa on his guitar-playing (from what I've heard, he's a little better than she implies : ))

I wish they had used that and Kerry's comment on things Teresa worked on in the 2004 campaign before the Republicans and media framed her in a negative way -- making the fact that she fell in love and married JK less a plus than it should have been. (I did meet one Morris County NJ person who was a former PA Republican who did a lot of phone banking in 2004, who said the reason she looked into who Kerry was was because she thought he had to be a solid person or Teresa would not have married him.)

Vanessa's comment was cool and a different perspective from seeing the perfectly coiffed elegant diplomat in suit and tie or occasionally a tuxedo.
