And this is presidential in what way?

<![CDATA[John Kerry's got a new staff and the first move in his grand strategy to revive his campaign was to ride a motorcycle onto the set of The Tonight Show and wave. Yep, John's just a guy, a real guy. It took a little talent to play the sax on late-night TV, but as an appeal to the common man goes, this is just sad. It wasn't even his bike, just a loaner. We don't need a president to back a tractor trailer into a loading bay, we need someone with both a sense of humor and the gravitas to conduct foreign and domestic affairs. Kerry talked about the race, but not really about any policy — why not really bring it down to the level where most people live and ask whether Leno's mom is seeing her prescription medicine prices skyrocket (if she's still living, I don't know, but if she's not, no disrespect intended)?
Howard Dean made fun of himself when he appeared on the show. Kerry seems more concerned with proving his manliness than demonstrating he has the emotional and intellectual range to be president. He was out shooting birds last week, about which he explained he "always eats what he kills." This gender identity thing is clearly something Senator Kerry is concerned about.
