What Might Have Been

I watched again footage of 1971 John Kerry's testimony to Senators as the spokesman for the Vietnam Veterans Against the War.

What a sterling young leader.

And now I think: What might have been.

What might have happened to the U.S. with a mature, knowledgable leader.

It is almost the same gut feeling of "what might have been" one gets when seeing Robert F. Kennedy speak.

But Kennedy was cut down by an assassin.

In a way, Kerry, too, was such a victim.

Of character assassination.
