For once he leads in the right direction. Former Democrat(-ic Party) Presidential Nominee, Senator John Forbes Kerry, has decided that he will not pursue the nomination in 2008. It's time for about five other guys to follow.Anybody who's been to beautykilledbeast knows about one of my friends, a now retired U.S. Army major. Prior to the 2006 Midterm Elections, he wrote me a long note in which he
