John Forbes Kerry (born December 11, 1943) is an American politician who is the 68th and current United States Secretary of State. He has served in the United States Senate, and was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Kerry was the candidate of the Democratic Party in the 2004 presidential election, losing to George W. Bush.
Kerry was born in Aurora, Colorado and attended boarding school in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. He graduated from Yale University class of 1966 with a political science major. Kerry enlisted in the Naval Reserve in 1966, and during 1968–1969 served an abbreviated four-month tour of duty in South Vietnam as officer-in-charge (OIC) of a Swift Boat. For that service, he was awarded combat medals that include the Silver Star Medal, Bronze Star Medal, and three Purple Heart Medals. Securing an early return to the United States, Kerry joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War organization in which he served as a nationally recognized spokesman and as an outspoken opponent of the Vietnam War. He appeared in the Fulbright Hearings before the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs where he deemed United States war policy in Vietnam to be the cause of war crimes.

I wish I was pilot,
Soaring over everyone and everything.
Looking at the landscape
What a peaceful tiny scene
Staring over the skyline
Oh I feel the blue dancing on my wings
Turn off the engine
Imagine what tomorrow brings
Chorus:
The time we wont delay
Take it from the other side
Born and lost but its a one more time
To get my fill
Of this old forgotten thrill, this life
I wish I was a fighter pilot
Soaring over everyone and everything
Through the smoke and fire
Imagine the hell I’d bring
The time we won’t delay
Take it from the inside
Born and lost but its a one more time
To get my fill
Of this old forgotten thrill, this life
But it’s cold, lost and shame
Wash it all out
Wash it all away
Now the story's old
But its all been told
I wish that I
I wish id fly
Alright!
I wish I was an outlaw
Spend my life kicking ass and takin' names
There would be no love lost
Town to town killin dreams
The lines they turn to gray
Take it from the inside
Born and lost but its a one more time
To get my fill
Of this old forgotten thrill, this life
A one more time,
To get my fill
