Kim du Toit outlines John Kerry's political platform, with some help from the Washington Times.

Is John Kerry making it up as he goes along? The presumptive Democratic nominee, who has been raging about the Bush economy for more than 15 months, was recently asked to tie his campaign proposals into a succinct and compelling agenda. "Succinct agenda," Mr. Kerry replied.

• "We're going to balance the budget.
  
• We're going to cut the deficit in half in four years.
  
• We're going to create 10 million jobs.
  
• And we're going to provide health care to all Americans?

How's that?"

Well, you left out curing cancer, feeding all the world's hungry, and finding the Yeti, but that's about all.
