Supporting Kerry

Well, looks like Dean finally followed suit and officially endorsed Kerry for president. Dean is the third former Democratic presidential candidate to endorse Kerry in as many months (Clark, Edwards were the other two). Also adding their support to the Kerry bandwagon is Al Sharpton who, while still technically running, has publicly endorsed Kerry. Being a New Yorker, a person of color and not African American, I’ve had very mixed emotions about Sharpton. Nonetheless, both he and Dean have contributed greatly in shaping the Democrat platform for Kerry. The voices in my head are telling me that despite these contributions Kerry can’t possibly look at them as running mates and that Edwards is the only realistic VP among the former and current candidates. But the voices also suggest that an upset is in the making and Edwards isn’t a shoe in. Hold that thought and watch this space.
