Hello, To the person that said that John Edwards sat out Vietnam: John Edwards is only 51. He was not old enough to serve in Vietnam. What I really object to is the way things get spun so craftily and distractingly, so that now we’re talking about Vietnam again, instead of the reality that thousands of Americans, mostly on the lower socio-economic end of things, are being killed and maimed, and soon many more will be. Especially if the President "stays the course" as he has promised. How can we finish the job with not enough troops? Don’t these people deserve to go home? And who will replace them? Volunteers? Not likely. There has to be a draft. What a nightmare for families this "values president" has created.
