"Ah, but Kerry has repeatedly and falsely stated that Nixon sent him to Viet Nam, when in fact it was Johnson who sent him to Vietnam, and it was Nixon who sent him home."
I seem to recall he was in country twice, the second time being after 20 Jan. 1969. If correct, Kerry could be parsing it such that Nixon did, in the sense necessary for him, "send him to Vietnam."
Whatever the case, I don't view this topic of discussion to be fruitful for the Bush cause.
More fruitful I believe, is his frequent flip-flop on major issues. And the basic Mass. liberal tag.
Bush will have his hands full. But these are only the primaries, to select who will please dems, who are primarily anti-war, pro-higher taxes, pro-abortion, pro-environment, etc.
They don't represent 100 percent of voters. The election is usually won/lost by successfully appealing to the center/independents.

His first "partial" trip was as a SEA-GOING electrical officer OFF-SHORE sitting in the air-conditioned "comfort" of a frigate off-shore.
Then, he left after only 6 months.

I'm not particularly interested in advancing the Bush cause in this case. I'm just curious about what the truth is here.
You're not living up to your name.
