That is such BS. Kerry got involved in End The War protests because he lived through it and saw the wasteful tragic carnage. His best friend was killed. Many others he cared about were killed. He himself took three minor wounds, and he risked death on a daily basis. Shame on your for dissing that. If you had been there you'd have powerful feelings too and might have joined Kerry.

He also heard the lies the admninistration told and the lack of a real reason to be fighting the war in the first place. Kerry didn't have a political career then, though if he had aspirations, why not? The country needed hm at the time and he delivered. He helped end that war. Nixon himself was worried about Kerry's message and persona.
That war by then was a hopeless morass. Anything who thought we should have swtayed in and kept fighting was just plain wrong.
