You didn't tell us which Union Local he is affilliated with......
I have a friend from our plant in Detroit who is a Vietnam Vet and God bless him he is very active in veterans issues and visits the vets at the veterans hospital on a regular basis. he is also a member of the Mt. clemens chapter of the Vietnam Veterans of America. When I last spoke with him I asked him about his thoughts about Kerry and he said he supported him because he was a Vietnam Vet.......... I asked him about Kerry's postwar activities and he was silent.
Heres the deal on my friend:
1. He is not the brightest bulb in the room but is a good mechanic.
2. He is a member of UAW Local 306........ Nothing more needs to be said
He's with the electrical union.
He, as your friend, says he's voting for the poodle because he's a Nam vet. That, however, doesn't explain his two votes for Clinton.
Some people are just hopeless.
