7. If they had favored the war and backed IWR would we dismiss it?
Would their standing as potential nominees differ at all from what it is today?

Easy answers on both. Obama wouldn't even be a Senator from Illinois, let alone a candidate for the nomination, had he not opposed the war at the outset, and Gore would be villified by most of the people who presently revere him. Their 2002 stances on the most important issue of the day are obviously relevant. Anyone who answers "yes" to your question is intellectually dishonest.
