Kerry Unveils U.S. Defense Plan in TV Ad

By LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) calls America "a country of optimists" and outlines his plan to make the nation "stronger at home" and "respected in the world" in a television ad unveiled Tuesday.

The 30-second commercial is the first in a new round of advertising meant to explain Kerry's proposals on the economy, health care and national security.

Kerry will spend $18 million in June, a heavy amount for five months before the election, to run issue-focused commercials in media markets in 20 states — including GOP-leaning Virginia for the first time — and nationally on cable networks.

"We're a country of the future. We're a country of optimists. We're the can-do people," Kerry says in the new ad, which is filled with pictures of American flags, children, veterans and the candidate on the campaign trail.

The ad says that for Kerry "a stronger America begins at home" and highlights his domestic plans to create jobs, lower health care costs and make the nation less reliant on Middle Eastern oil. The ad also promises "a strong military and strong alliances to defeat terror."
