Question

How did John Kerry's military service influence your decision when voting in the last presidential election?

Answer 1

It had no effect on me and on most voters, except for the fact that it showed his flip-flopping nature.. . Kerry offended many Vietnam vets by his attitude of throwing away the medals he earned (he did earn them), in a way that made it look like he was demeaning his fellow vets.

Answer 2

military participation was not an issue.. after all most of the people in the viet nam war were drafted and had no choice, and anyone that actually stayed and fought once they got there.. were all heroes..in my book. i vote for the best candidate who has similar beliefs and goals that i have.. and are concerned about the same issues i am concerned about. bush wasn't in the war.. so maybe that is why we are in iraq..now./ may be if he had witnessed the death..injury and loss he would have had seconds thoughts.

Answer 3

Was he in Vietnam?. . I did not know that!

Answer 4

Nope not at all. It's whomever has enough experience to do the job and do it well!

Answer 5

It didn't affect me at all. It was insignificant. Mainly because he cannot choose one side or the other, he is never one way or the other. He contradicts himself, and I could never vote for a man like that no matter how many times he gave his life in the war. I def tilted away in every area of his campaign.
