John Kerry has the distinguished honor of being voted the least effective Secretary of State over the last 50 years. In fact, it’s not even close. Kerry is rannked least effective than even the likes of Madeleine Albright, Cyrus Vance, Warren Christopher and even pay-to-play Hillary Clinton! It must feel like Vietnam all over again for lurch.
