Featured Members of Congress
On March 31, 2008 John Kerry was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
Appearing on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday, John Kerry (D-MA) became the first member of the Senate to call on his party's superdelegates to choose a presidential candidate by July 1st. He did not call on Clinton to resign, but suggested that the negativity between the two candidates could hurt the eventual nominee's campaign. “The important thing is to be fighting against John McCain and not to be destructive in this campaign, either campaigns,” Kerry said.
