The incident you report had nothing

surrounds every major pres/VP candidate.


Except that it is not "necessary".

Thanks for the great set-up, TS.

I can't imagine Kerry deciding that since he wasn't coughing up blood that he would
press on with his scheduled speech after taking a bullet, as TR did. We could expect
JFK2, IAW his previous behavior WRT PH and other medal claims, to proclaim himself a
hero from a plush hospital suite, while Edwards launched huge civil law suits against
every deep pocket within a hundred miles.

Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, an Arab terrorist if ever there was one, would make a better
example of why Presidential candidates need protection. Of course, there is no
expectation that Kerry could change this country for the better, as RFK could have done.
