Not to rain on your parade but I think the pardons granted by Carter were for draft dodgers.

A more plausible explanation is that John Kerry was an FBI,DOD informant against the VVAW and the anti-war movement.

But if he was an informer he could tell everyone now and get the Swifties off of his case. He could tell them he did it for them. He wouldn't even have to go public and alienate his base he could go to them in private and if he showed them proof, I think they'd let it go.

The Purple Hearts and the medals are just annoyances to them but the anti-war activity hurt them.

Would it have covered AWOL?

If Kerry was indeed an informant against the VVAW, the media will take a very unsympathtic view of it. With all their "hero candidadte" rhetoric, the left is really the most proud of Kerry trashing the US/military when he returned from Vietnam. They would NOT want him "working with" the "government." But if Kerry did, wouldn't it be just like him? Just another flip-flp and knife in the back of friends.
