I heard this weird rumor that Vietnam veteran and Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, was at one time a member of the U.S. Senate.
I think this has to be a hoax. I mean, if I were running for president and had experience in government - as a senator, no less! - I would talk about it more than I would talk about what I did in Vietnam. The skill set of president is closer to that of senator than that of swift boat commander. I'd play that senator thing for all it was worth.
Kerry, a senator. Ha! Well, I guess some people will believe any crazy old thing they read on the Internet.
