And let's not forget his résumé: [anti-war protestor at Yale]

volunteered for service in Vietnam after 4 deferments and a turn-down deferment on Paris [to re-enact battle scenes with his 8 milometer for the purposes of future political aspirations]

saw combat while running away; killed a fleeing unarmed teen [unintential, self-inflicted wound],

[returned home - lied under oath before congress; ruined the reputations of 5 million Vietnam Vets; led a group that wanted to kill senators

[was not accepted to Harvard Law - pesky concern about that dishonorable discharge preventing him from being admitted to the bar]

[earned his law degree from BC - must have got a favor to be able to take the bar]

served as a prosecutor

and then for two decades as a United States senator.[his sad record speaks for itself]

In many ways, Kerry was a better candidate than Bush.

[When did Bush ruin the reputations of 5 million vets or kill an un-armed teenage?]

Finally, the MSM is still in denial about the roll in Kerry's demise. Presenting two sides of a story is important especially when ALL of the baby boomers - the largest demographic in this country - knows ALL about John Kerry. They were there in the early 70s.

served as a prosecutor

As I recall, he was in the MA DA's office for two and a half years, during which time he did get a conviction in a trial for which most of the work had been done by someone else. Then, according to Howie Carr, he was pushed out by his boss -- obviously qualified for nothing but a political career!
