John Kerry: Not Interested in Being Secretary of State
February 04, 2011 5:32 PM
JON KARLABC News' Jonathan Karl reports:
Senator John Kerry (D-MA) wants to make one thing perfectly clear: He has no interest in being Secretary of State.
Of course, there is no opening. Hillary Clinton is no Secretary of State and shows no sign of leaving any time soon. But Senator Kerry, who now serves as Congress’s ambassador to the world in his role as chairman of the Senator Foreign Relations Committee has frequently faced speculation he secretly covets Hillary Clinton’s job.
The most recent example: A story in the Boston Globe, Kerry’s hometown newspaper, that reports Kerry “is running an unofficial campaign to become the next Secretary of State.”
The Globe story said Kerry is using his perch as Foreign Relations chairman to “audition” for Secretary of State. Case in point, according to the Globe: A New York times op-ed Kerry wrote earlier this week in which he argued that Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak “must accept that the stability of his country hinges on his willingness to step aside gracefully to make way for a new political structure.”

There must be a word for a typo that's more truthful than the intended text would have been.
(It's that way at the source)
John Kerry has some good background to be Secretay of State, he has already met with Communists around the world. He met with the Vietnamese in Paris when we were fighting them, he has met with many Communsists in this country such as Jane Fonda, He is in the North Vietnamese Hall of Fame.
If we ever decide to surrender to Communism he would be the perfect guy to do it.
involves too much work.
That typo was poetic justice.
Thanks, John. I’m not interested in you being secretary of state, either.
No way will lurch accept that position and make the senior sen from the peoples republic of mass a republican, ole’ ted would choke on his double scotch down in hells’ hot tub.
That makes two of us... I’m not interested in his being Secretary of State either.
I vote for that.
Thank God! Although any dem will suck, but Kerry has that extra something. That makes me puke.
Our state department is populated with ex Hog Farm residents from Taos.
Kerry would look real good in Somalia.
John Cary you can’t carry Cyrus Vance’s jock strap.
Shouldn't that be "now," ABC?
Well gosh darn it - I’m sure Sarah had him on the short list.

LOL, not in this day in age ... “seems too much like work,” he’d say.
day and age, that is
My first thought was : “Who in the world asked you??!!”
How he got elected and how he continues to be reelected is beyond me. I wouldn’t hire him to run a bath.
