thanks for those earlier links on Bangert. I suppose that VVAR membership in and of itself isn't a negative for somebody working in Kerry's campaign. (The moral implications of belonging notwithstanding.)
But Camil was the idea generator for the assassinations. Doesn't deny it. Why hire him?

Well, the VVAW were involved in a LOT of disreputable things. Even Operation RAW, which is where Kerry spoke from the same stage as Jane Fonda, was pretty disreputable.
The VVAW (and Fonda) brought the world the sham "Winter Soldier Investigation" and the bogus atrocity stories. And of course they did the Dewey Canyon rally, which including the throwing of medals onto the Capitol steps.
But last but not least, they negotiated with the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese in Paris. Kerry even bragged about it.
