I spent six years in the USMC Reserves, the last three, during my tenure at University of Chicago Law School, doing discharge paperwork. Long and short of it, I know a LOT about military discharges - more than I know about everything else the Marine Corps does. Forget what that writer says. Too many errors. Here are a couple. He claims some expertise but does not know only a court-martial issues bad conduct discharges. He says a Dishonorable discharge is a felony conviction. Not true. It is a punishment for a felony conviction...one of many punishments available. He does not know that all court martial convictions regardless of level or type are felony convictions. I could go on.

I doubt he could have been admitted to the Massachusetts bar 1. Are bar requirements uniform state to state? 2. Are bar requirements subject to political override? 3. Was Kerry actually admitted to the bar? 4. Must one be admitted to the bar in order to run for Kerry's "law enforcement person" position? 5. Would perpetual delay in producing any required documentation eventually make the documentation moot? In Ma. all things are possible. Ma. U.S. senators can even be involved in suspicious deaths with no consequence. as a Democrat in Ma., I don't believe Kerry could run for major public office without having a lot of political 'pull'.
