Posted: June 24, 2004 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2004 WorldNetDaily.com Bill Clinton is taking his act on the road. It's not just about selling books. That's a done deal.

KETCHUM, Idaho (AP) — Reports that the FBI monitored John Kerry's anti-war activities in the early 1970s highlight the need "to be vigilant about civil liberties," the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee said Monday. In a radio interview Monday evening on WBZ-AM in Boston, Kerry said the reports are "such ancient history." "It's just sort of in the past, but it underscores to everyone of us why we have to be vigilant about civil liberties, why we have to have an attorney general who respects the Constitution, and why our Bill of Rights is so important in the United States," said...
