The Kef for Kerry Tour consists of a series of musical rallies in support of John Kerry's candidacy for President, a tribute to his twenty years of active support for issues of vital concern to Armenian-Americans. Combining a celebration of Armenian music with political activism, it brings together some of the best Armenian musicians to support a nationwide voter mobilization effort for November 2004. Kicked off in Kerry's home state of Massachusetts at the Armenstock 2004 festival, the Kef for Kerry Tour takes the show on the road to the key battleground states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Florida, and Pennsylvania. Billed as the Armenian version of Bruce Springsteen's 'Vote for Change' tour, each stop on the tour combines a single musical performance with a political program to generate enthusiasm among young activists and bring in hundreds of new fellow passengers onto the Armenians for Kerry bandwagon. Senator Kerry has been a friend of the Armenian American community for over twenty years, with a proven track record of fighting hard for issues of concern to Armenians across the nation. He faces an incumbent, President Bush, whose record on Armenian issues has grown progressively more disappointing throughout his tenure in the White House, beginning with his broken campaign pledge to recognize the Armenian Genocide, including his Administration's attempt to end military aid parity between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and culminating in his administration's mistaken placing of Armenia on the ' terrorist watch-list' . On the issues Armenian Americans care about - as Armenians and as Americans - John Kerry is the clear choice. Click here to read John Kerry's statement in remembrance of the Armenian Genocide. The difference between the two candidates could not be greater, the choice more stark, and the opportunity more clear: VOTE KERRY-EDWARDS ON NOVEMBER 2 nd !!!!!The Kef for Kerry Tour is made possible by a generous contribution from Dr. Carolann and K. George Najarian. Produced by Armenians for Kerry
