"No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

The United States Constitution Amendment 14, Section 3

"Hanoi John is a TRAITOR!!!"

"FReegards...MUD"

Then why is John Kerry even a senator?

[Xenalyte]

You can look at Ted Kennedy and wonder how the "good people" of Massachusetts elect Kerry?

[litany_of_lies]

Why was he even allowed to serve stateside once his VVAW activities were known, or to become Lt. Gov of Massachusetts? Or for that matter Cambridge city dogcatcher?

Then why is John Kerry even a senator?

Because in the good-old USA, the Constitution doesn't mean anything anymore. Also because no-one has had the balls to actually hold Kerry legally responsible for his actions - which go WAY beyond free speech. He lied to intentionally damage the war effort - thus betraying "his" country.

The US has sunk to a level that a lying traitor can have a real chance at being elected to the most powerful office in the world, and I am ashamed of the fact that American voters are stupid enough to possibly put him there.

Then why is John Kerry even a senator?

Because the NVA and VC were never made "enemies of the United States" by a Constitutional process.
