That's almost the same as saying don't listen to me. Of course we want to know what their thoughts are now on current issues, and how life has affected their views and attitudes.

Kerry needs to be careful about relying so heavily on his Vietnam experience in this campaign, especially since he came back as a very angry man about the war. Also, a more than worthy rival is Clark, whose background and experience and heroism far outweighs Kerry.

Just saying this as someone from a military family, and someone with friends who served in Nam who aren't too impressed with Kerry.
