Kerry for U.S. Senate
Sen. John Kerry has earned the community’s support. His early endorsement of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential bid required real political courage. It is unusual for a U.S. senator to make such an endorsement in a presidential primary, and it was especially hazardous politically since Sen. Hillary Clinton had such strong support among Kerry’s constituents. Kerry went on to become an effective surrogate for Obama in the early months of the presidential campaign.
That would be enough to warrant support of Kerry, but he has also earned a 100 percent “A” rating from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for his advocacy of increasing federal student aid and increasing the minimum wage. The community should remember on Election Day that it has a friend in John Kerry.
