[angrydemocrat]

John Kerry has worked hard his entire career to build a stronger and more respected America. Here are some of the things John Kerry has done in trying to make America more respected:

1)Helped Spread Democracy and Human Rights Throughout The World - John Kerry was a leading advocate for democratic elections in the Philippines, serving as an elections monitor as part of a Senate delegation that uncovered the fraud that led to the ouster of President Ferdinand Marcos. He was a strong proponent of U.S. participation in the NATO intervention that put an end to the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo. He worked with the United Nations and Cambodian Government officials to facilitate the creation of of the genocide tribunal in Cambodia that will prosecute key members of the Khmer Rouge. He sponsored the Code of Conduct of Arms Transfer Act, which prohibited U.S. military assistance and arms transfers to nation that do not adequately protect the human rights of their citizens. He co- sponsored bipartisan legislation which imposed sanctions on Burma's military regime for detaining Aung San Suu Kyi and repressing her National League for Democracy party.

2)Fought Global HIV/AIDS - John Kerry authored major elements of the Global Aids and Tuberculosis Act of 2000, legislation which at the time provided the most most ever for fighting AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis around the world. He sponsored the bipartisan U.S. Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Act of 2002, comprehensive legislation that was unanimously approved by the Senate and became the foundation of global AIDS legislation that was passed by congress.

3)Fought International Crime, Corruption and Drug Trafficking. - John Kerry chaired the landmark hearings that uncovered Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) scandal- the largest banking corruption scandal in modern times. He led hearings which provided evidence that Haitian military officials were involved in drug trafficking by Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega, and introduced legislation requiring the Reagan Administration to cut off foreign aid to Panama because of drug-related corruption within its government.

4)Uncovered Government Corruption - John Kerry went on a fact-finding mission to Nicaragua and presented his findings to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Based in part on John Kerry's groundbreaking findings, the committee reached a consensus decision to investigate the Contra guerillas and their connection to drug trafficking in the United States. The resulting investigation uncovered the Iran-Contra scandal, a scheme that diverted profits from illegal arms sales to Iran to support the Contra guerilla fighters in Nicaragua.
