His great uncle, Corliss Lamont, a humanist philosopher and civil liberties advocate was also an avowed Socialist and served as a Director of the ACLU from 1932 to 1954.

Really nice work. I wonder if Corliss Lamont (and, by extension, the CP/USA) continued to work with the VVAW after 1967...
A direct link to the FBI report is here.

So, does this make Ned Lamont a red diaper baby of sorts?

Thanks for the additional info on Corliss. Here's some more details, from a sketch of Lamont I wrote to go with the FBI file guide:
Corliss Lamont (1902-1995): Professor, writer, and activist. Son of J.P. Morgan executive Thomas Lamont, who invited left-wing celebrities and intellectuals to the Lamont household and held liberal views on foreign policy and US-Soviet relations. Introduced to socialism by family friend H.G. Wells in the early 1920s, became sympathetic towards socialist philosophy over the course of the 1920s, and converted in 1928. Travelled to the Soviet Union in 1932 and afterward associated with numerous front groups and fellow-travelling groups, including the Friends of the Soviet Union/National Council on Soviet Relations/National Council of Soviet-American Friendship, the American Civil Liberties Union, the World Congress Against War, the New School for Social Research, the American Humanist Association, the National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee, the American Labor Party, and the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. Identified as CP member in 1951 Senate testimony. Contributed several thousand dollars via Bernard Koten (see entry) of Veterans for Peace (VFP) to help attract Vietnam veterans to antiwar cause through New York Times ad promoting VFP Memorial Day 1967 demonstration, which resulted in the creation of the VVAW. In October 1967 made contribution via Koten to help pay for VVAW recruitment ad that ran in the New York Times November 19, 1967.

I don't know for sure, but IIRC, in the wake of the Church Commmittee hearings Corliss sued the intelligence community in the 1970s over surveillance of him, and I believe the VVAW and a number of other antiwar groups/individuals (such as Fonda) were also participants in that suit or a related suit. So it may be they continued to travel together into the 1970s.

There is no need to impeach Hanoi Kerry from the US Senate
He is there illegally!
WAKEUP AMERICA!
For those who "forgot" what Hanoi Kerry
did in the past read on and learn the truth.
Hanoi Kerry was still a USNR officer while he:
gave false hearsay testimony to Congress
negotiated with the enemy
helped the US lose a war
abetted in the deaths of millions
created a hostile environment for all servicemen
Why is Kerry still in the US Senate?
This is in violation of
U.S. Constitution Amendment 14 Sec 3 (1868)
Section 3. 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.
http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.amendmentxiv.html
The FBI has proof of his giving aid and comfort to the enemies
Hanoi Kerry Timeline of a traitor
includes FBI files
May 1970
Kerry and Julia traveled to Paris, France and met with Madame Nguyen Thi Binh, the Foreign Minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of Vietnam (PRG), the political wing of the Vietcong, and other Viet Cong and Communist Vietnamese representatives to the Paris peace talks, a trip he now calls a "fact-finding" mission.
(U.S. code 18 U.S.C. 953, declares it illegal for a U.S. citizen to go abroad and negotiate with a foreign power.)

or with any offense punishable by death,
may be tried at any time without limitation.

Any person who--
(1) aids, or attempts to aid, the enemy with arms, ammunition, supplies, money, or other things; or
(2) without proper authority, knowingly harbors or [protects or gives intelligence to or communicates or corresponds with or holds any intercourse with the enemy, either directly or indirectly;
shall suffer death
or such other punishment as a court-martial or military commission may direct.

So, does this make Ned Lamont a red diaper baby of sorts?I think it raises the possibility, but we'd need more evidence about other members of the Lamont family and their relationship to Ned to say for sure.

I still think the answer as to whether Horseface received 'bad paper' can be found in VA records. Did he take VA bennies while going to law school?
His father married into the 'poor' branch of the Forbes Clan* and his aunt had to pay his way through undergrad school.
* A mistake he noted and did not repeat!

From Kerry's "The New Soldier":
Al Hubbard Sgt., 22 Troop Carrier Squadron Aug. 65-June 66
Emotions: Walking down the flight line at Saigon past stacks of aluminum cases containing American bodies and past stacks of aluminum luggage containing American currency. Seeing the tight, sad face of an Airman loading the bodies aboard a dirty Air Force Transport and the wide smiling face of a stewardess greeting the passengers aboard a clean Pan American Clipper Jet. Hearing a Vietnamese beg you to leave his country and an American colonel tells you to bomb his country. Hearing a Vietnamese invite you to live in his home, after the war and an American explain why you cant live in his block, after the war. Flying over barren, brown, safe American held terrain and over lush, green unsafe enemy terrain. Feeling happy to be leaving a country in which you do not belong and sad to be returning to a country in which you are not allowed to belong. Sacrificing a portion of your consciousness so you wont have to deal with being there and building mental blocks so you wont have to deal with having been there.
- Al Hubbard, proven fraud who never set foot in Viet Nam. The only Vietnamese he ever met was when he was collaborating with the North Vietnamese in Paris on the American Communist Party's nickel.
John Kerry's explanation: "He (Hubbard) simply exaggarated his particular position.
But nobody knew it at the time.
And those things happen."

hanoi kerry went before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in 1971
to accuse the United States military
of committing massive numbers of war crimes in Vietnam.
