Old Guy, maybe I'm missing the point, but I don't see how the actions of either candidate in the 60s and 70s have become the burning issue of the day. Okay, Kerry fought in the Vietnam War and may have attempted to get out for whatever reason (although, unlike Bush he at least went through the proper channels), but what does that have to do with whether he'll make a good President or not? Aren't his current policies and attitudes more important than his antics 30-odd years ago? And isn't the fact that Bush has made a complete pig's arse out of everything he's turned his hand to in the past four years and appears anxious to continue doing the same for the next four a factor in deciding on who to vote for?

I'm not from the US but for Christ's sake, fellas, get this incompetent, dangerous halfwit out of office before he causes any more damage.
