Where are the pro Kerry veterans on the Internet?
I just did a search for Vietnam vets for kerry and virtually every site that comes up is anti Kerry, except for a web page linked to the official Kerry for President site. On page 3 of the search, I finally came across veteransunitedforkerry, which is a very nice site, but not nearly as slick as some of those that are anti-Kerry.

I wish some vets would set up a good-looking website so that when other vets look around, they see it's okay to support Kerry. If Kerry really has somewhere between 36 and 46 percent of the vets supporting him, why doesn't that support manifest itself more distinctly on the internet?

1. My E-Mail from Fellow 'Nam Vets
My e-mail from fellow 'Nam vets is running very favorably to Kerry. These guys, all genuine grunts, know what combat is really all about. Here's a typical e-mail:

George Bush truly has a military record to be ashamed of and it's not even an issue, and John Kerry who fulfilled his military obligation with a combat tour of duty is getting a black eye for it. How can that be?

Though by no means a sure thing, there is a good chance that enough of our benighted citizenry will see that the Bush presidency is a blight and he'll be voted out of office. But if John Kerry beats him, he'll wear a lot of shit before it's over.
