More from the article:

In 1972, as he ran for the House, he was less apologetic in his comments about the merits of a volunteer army. He declared in the questionnaire that he opposed the draft but considered a volunteer army "a greater anathema."

"I am convinced a volunteer army would be an army of the poor and the black and the brown," Kerry wrote. "We must not repeat the travesty of the inequities present during Vietnam. I also fear having a professional army that views the perpetuation of war crimes as simply 'doing its job.'

"I am convinced a volunteer army would be an army of the poor and the black and the brown," Kerry wrote.

On top of everything else abhorrent that he is, Kerry is also an admitted white supremicist. That quote confirms it.
