The Man Who Would Be President

Testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on 23 April 1971, Presidential wannabe John Kerry referred to Vice President Agnew's 1970 West Point speech where Agnew said that "our best men die in Asian rice paddies to preserve the freedom which most of those misfits abuse".

"It is a distortion", said Kerry "because we in no way consider ourselves the best men of this country".

Yup, ya got that right. But only if you're speaking for yourself.
