How dare that Kerry?? How dare him be a Democrat and let alone run for President against the man of the century.
"We should have carried that war to the very end. Johnson wouldnt fight. Nixon fought without shame, but, with secrecy. Ford didnt fight, but, he did pardon. Yes, we should have put another trillion dollars into winning that war and sent our finest to defeat the VC."
