lead I have to tell you, as I remember the Vietnam war, the anti draft sentiment was very high among college students. The protests began in the universities before they spilled over into the streets. They created the incentive the North needed to stay the course.

Ask Kerry he could tell you all about it.

All true. How did FDR get away with it and LBJ didn't?

I submit that WWII was a necessary war and Vietnam wasn't.
