Meet John Kerry

** (Click here to listen to a brief analysis) **

As you know, John Kerry is a senator from Massachusetts who ran for president. Of all the candidates in 2004, he probably had the most distinctive face.

As a face reader, the first thing I notice about John Kerry is how long his face is. In large part that's due to the depth of his chin. That long chin is a sign of a very, very physical person. He likes to get his hands on things. He's a doer.

I also notice the long, vertical creases in his cheeks. These are indicative of people who have a very strong, need -- a drive -- for public service and to make a real difference in the world.

Now lets look at his eyes. See how his eyebrows tend to be higher toward center of his face, and lower as they approach his ears? That means he worries and anticipates. He is always thinking ahead.

Finally, notice how his cheekbones stick out. Typically, this is a good indicator John Kerry needs and expects to be surrounded by quality in every aspect of his life. From the clothes he wears to the work he does, he hates to see things done poorly or second-rate.

Want to know more? In a nutshell...Senator Kerry is a good listener...He's not especially confident in his own ideas...He is very intelligent...He has the ability to ignore the truth...He can manage well when he needs/wants to...He can lapse into getting caught up in details and lose his vision...He needs to feel in control most of the time...He sets high standards for himself.

This is only the beginning of what you can see when you learn to read faces. I literally could talk for an hour on just about anyone, pointing out dozens upon dozens of interesting traits--abilities, drives, needs, behavior, and more.
